Life goal: pet all the dogs!

Pet care experience

I've had a dog ever since I can remember and treat them as a family member (my family would say I treat my dog better than them most days LOL!) I apologize for the higher rate, but with Rover raising their rates, I had to raise mine. I live in a townhouse in West Des Moines (about 10 min from work), and while I don't have a yard per se, there is a lot of green space around where we can go for walks, and the Waukee dog park isn't too far away! If you’re having me stay at your place, I can either bring my pup and see if they get along or I can have a friend watch my guy while I watch yours; up to you! If you have ANY questions, please let me know, I'm more than happy to answer them! :)

Can not say enough wonderful things about Kayla! She loved on and played with our dogs and took great care of the house!

Kayla did a great job taking care of our fur babies. She treated them like her own and sent updates regularly so I always knew things were going well! She also left the house in great condition so that I didn't have to start cleaning as soon as we returned. Will definitely book again!

Kayla was great! Very good communication before and during the stay, she sent lots of pics and videos of our guy! Our doggy loved having her and her pup while we were gone and I felt completely comfortable and that he was in the best hands. I definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!

Kayla was fantastic. She watch our two Shorkie's at our house and did a fabulous job. The girls were happy and healthy and had fun playing with her. The house was spotless when we returned and she was very helpful....she had even washed the sheets for our spare room! We would definitely use Kayla again....she is awesome!
