Pet care experience

Kayla Jones – Caring & Reliable Pet

grew up on a farm surrounded by all kinds of animals, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. My love for animals runs deep, and I tend to form strong connections with dogs of all personalities. I’ve always been committed to walking, bathing, and brushing my dogs regularly, ensuring they stay happy and healthy. Whether your pet needs a playmate, a gentle caregiver, or just some extra attention, I’ll treat them like my own. You can trust me to provide reliable and loving care for your furry family member!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I ensure pets feel safe and comfortable by providing a clean space, regular feeding, playtime, and lots of love. I’m attentive to their needs, including grooming, exercise, and maintaining a consistent routine. I also know how to calm down hyper or temperamental dogs, using patience and understanding to help them relax. I adjust playtime based on the dog’s mood, ensuring they have fun while respecting their energy levels. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment, providing fresh food, water, walks, and companionship.

Dog Walking • Dec 08, 2025

I needed help walking my dogs due to a busy schedule, and I’m so glad I found Kayla. After meeting her last week, she has walked my dogs a couple of times and has done an excellent job. She’s very easy to communicate with, always prompt, and consistently shows up right on schedule. Most importantly, my dogs absolutely love her. I highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker. I’ll definitely be using her in the future, especially while I’m on vacation.

Schedule

I’m currently a full-time student at New Mexico State University with a mix of online and in-person classes. This semester, I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am unavailable on Thursdays, but I’m available on Tuesdays after 12 PM. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate time to pet care throughout the rest of the week. With more online classes, I have even more freedom to care for pets, ensuring they get the attention, exercise, and love they need. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or playtime, I’m committed to providing reliable and loving care.
