Highlights
Pet care experience
Sit, stay, run, play 💚
I have recently graduated from Cal State Monterey Bay with my undergraduate degree in business, and I just moved back to the Santa Rosa area full-time. I do well with dogs who have social anxiety. I like to build trust, and generally, I am not a super high-energy person. I don’t raise my voice even in excitement, and I quickly gain the trust of dogs who can be wary of others. I have a reliable car, and I can take the dogs who need to run it out to their favorite dog park. I keep the lines of communication open, and I actively listen to all concerns. I am also a natural problem solver, so I like to identify multiple solutions when I identify a problem.

Safety, trust & environment
Every dog and family is different! And I understand that all will have unique needs. I keep a working document on all pets that I get to know, to assure that I am always keen to their temperaments and quirks, allergies, diets, meal times, and routines. I also carry seat belts for my car for safety, a water bowl for hot days, and a few treats! (If diet permit). I was an instructor for the American Redcross and I taught and certified in first aid, water rescue, blood borne pathogens, and cpr/aed; so my knowledge of injury and heat illness are quite extensive.
Ratings and reviews
Kayla was great with our dog. He has separation anxiety and some specific dietary needs, and she was able to handle it. She asked good questions about his temperament and needs so we felt comfortable leaving him alone.
Thank you for giving Ludwig a fun walk!
Always feel so assured our pup will have a great walk when Kayla picks him up!
The 40 5⭐️ reviews for Kayla on Rover are so deserved! Based on these, we hired Kayla to care for our very senior dog. We were very nervous about using someone new because at 15+ he has ALL of the old age issues - severe arthritis mobility issues, incontinence, anxiety/confusion if his routine changes, and needs some oral medications. She dealt with all of these needs with care and professionalism. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. We would absolutely use Kayla again, she has our complete trust and confidence and any family pet would be cared for as if they were her own. 5 ⭐️s ++++
Absolutely amazing every single time! Stays in great communication and our dog loves her!!
Great, will hire again.
