Kayla did an awesome job with our fur baby. She sent several pictures a day and she alleviated my nervousness by keeping me updated frequently. I could tell by the pictures that my baby was right at home and was being taken care of. I would absolutely use Kayla again.

Kayla came through for me in an emergency situation, and I am so thankful. Most importantly, my pooch seemed happy as a clam based on the numerous pictures I received during his stay. ?

Kayla is the best!!!! She kept me updated on how King was doing, during the day. Kayla made King feel at home with the toys, treats and love she gave him. She made me feel so comfortable I’m ready to take my next trip. Kayla thank you!!!!

I've known Kayla for a long time now, and she's always been a fantastic dog mom. She takes pet care seriously and she's been able to make friends with my grumpy grandma of a dog.

Kayla is an exceptional pet-sitter. When my spouse and I travel for extended day, we always rely upon Kayla. She loves and takes great care of our Cavapoo, Patches. Patches loves to see Kayla and always demonstrates a happy wagging tail at pickup. The neat thing about Kayla is that she will pick up Patches from our home and drop him home to us upon our return. That's a great benefit because after traveling we are often a bit exhausted and appreciate the added assistance. I would describe Kayla as a "one of a kind" caregiver, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and compassionate.

Safety, trust & environment

Generally I follow whatever instructions are left and then add in a few enrichment activities. I also make sure they are introduced to the other members of my family so that they can feel comfortable with new strangers. I make sure that strangers do not attempt to pet my clients; this is for everyone’s safety the dog’s included.

Pets

A typical day

I enjoy engaging the dogs in my care both mentally and physically. I have several dog puzzles and snuffle mats for them to enjoy as well. I take several walks a day through my neighborhood and occasionally in the nearby parks which I am sure your pup will love to join me on.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or a routine that I need to address. I do not have any restrictions regarding breed, but I will not take dogs with a personal history of aggression.
