Highlights
Pet care experience
Dependable, adaptable, experienced!
You should choose me to care for your pet because I have experience training and caring for a golden retriever for 14 years with additional experience dog sitting small dogs and dogs with medical issues such as cancer or kidney problems. I am adaptable to different special care needs for your pet such as medical instructions or behavioral instructions. I am chosen by others to care for their pets due to dependability and ability to handle pets of all sizes and needs. I have been described as calm and regulated which are two essential traits when caring for pets. I am a fast learner and love to be around animals whenever I can. I have cared for over a dozen pets in my lifetime and I even have horse training experience!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Flexible Space: My home allows for complete separation of pets if needed—perfect for slow introductions, feeding safety, or senior pets needing a quiet break. On-Site Dog Park: We have a private, fenced dog park steps from my door, ensuring safe, focused exercise without the chaos of public parks. Eyes-On Supervision: Working from home allows for 0-2 hour potty intervals and constant monitoring. Your pet is never left alone for long. Pro-Active Communication: Expect high-quality photo updates and detail regarding your pet’s mood, appetite, and activity. Emergency Ready: I am minutes away from an UrgentVet, BluePearl and NC State Veterinary Hospital, with all emergency protocols established at check-in.

Kayla did a great job with our cat and senior dog! She kept the house clean, which we really appreciate as well (:


Kayla was amazing!! She watched my two dogs at our house for a week and took great care of them!! She was fast with communicating and always updating me with cute pictures of my boys!! I will definitely be using her again!!


Kayla is a bright and responsible dog - loving college senior! She is respectful of your time and strives to arrive on time every time. She has cared for my dog many times in a very attentive and loving manner. You can count on her to take great care of your dog.

Schedule
I am currently working from home full-time, which allows me to provide premium supervision (0-2 hour potty break intervals). My schedule is highly flexible, and I prioritize consistent routines for my guests.
