7 years experience with dogs!

Pet care experience

Looking for an upbeat and HUGE dog lover? I am your gal! I have worked with dogs for over 7 years through home sitting, dog training, grooming, walking, and currently working as a vet tech which I have been doing for 6 years. I have a passion for animals and truly care about their well being and happiness. I have a large amount of knowledge about dogs in all areas which makes me have a better understanding of what a certain dog may need or be asking for! I cannot imagine not having each one of my days filled by a smiling face from a four legged friend. There is nothing I enjoy more than sitting with my dog after a long walk for some good snuggles! I have a two Rottweilers who loves other dogs if you want your dog to have play time, but who can also stay home with my family if you or your dog would like that! I know how important a dog is to a family and would treat any dog I spend time with as if he or she was my own. My dogs are my best friends and would want only the best care for them and I am here to provide that! I am a very flexible and understanding person as well. I also will understand when you ask for 100 pictures of your dog when you are on vacation cause if it was me, I would be asking for 200! I am here to give tummy rubs at the right times and make sure your family member is the best they can be without their favorite person. A happy dog is a happy life, isn't that how the saying goes?

Kayla was awesome! She sent photos and texts at each visit, and she was very timely in her visits, and even said what time she would be arriving visit get up and get it. Will definitely hire her again!

Brego LOVES Kayla! This is really something, as he is super reserved around all humans, so we have limited options for his care when we are away. Kayla is very responsible and committed to making sure our boy is happy and comfy in our absence. And her experience as a vet tech gives us great peace of mind. We are so glad to have found Kayla; she is a perfect match to care for our guy when we can't be home.

We've never left our boy Brego "home alone" for so long. He has some anxiety issues that have resulted in him not being comfortable in a boarding situation. So, when we go away from home for periods of time, we board our other dog and leave Brego in his comfort space with his good friend Kayla. This trip had us leave the house on Thursday morning and return Monday evening. During that time Brego was by himself during the day (although he has safe, secure indoor/outdoor access) and Kayla stayed with him overnight. She sent us frequent updates, and apparently he was much more interested in playing and hanging out with her than he ever is with us! Kayla took good care of our buddy and also brought in our mail, watered our patio veggies, and left our home exactly as she found it. We trust her completely with our boy Brego and with our home, and we feel extra peace of mind knowing that she has a veterinary background, just in case. Kayla has given us the confidence to once again take trips away from home without constant worry about Brego. Thank you Kayla and Rover!

Kayla was great with our dog. She sent updates and photos and was very responsive to messages. Will definitely be using her again and will recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is the most important thing next to happiness! I always triple check gates/doors/leashes/collars to ensure that nothing will happen to a family member! Understanding that when family isn’t home is one of the times a dog may try to sneak out looking for them is so important, so extra care must always be taken.

Information Kayla M. would like to know about your pet

I love every and all breeds. I would like to know how your dog interacts with people they have not met, if they get along well with other dogs, and are protective of any type of toys or food. The reason for this is to make our time spent together a great one and to prevent any issues!

A typical day

I am happy to take walks where ever is preferred by you. I personally love to take my dog to trails as well as to the beach.
