Fur Baby Lover and New Bff

Pet care experience

Hello, I’m Kayla. I live in Nj. My availability is pretty flexible throughout the week, and have plenty of time to hangout and get to know my new furry friends. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. i’ve never met a dog or cat I didn’t love. I’ve had about over 7 years experience of not only taking care of my pets but also friends and family. I have also fostered kittens. I have taken care of dogs from as small as my dog and as big as huskies. I promise to care and love your furry family as my own and have a grand time. During the stay Make sure your furry friend is comfortable and feels safe. We walk around the neighborhood and go to any near by parks. I will send photo updates. Requested Info Just any tips or things i need to know about them to make sure everything goes great this is what i want to be my job so it’s the only thing i focus on so i have a super flexible schedule for taking care of all the fur babies. I care for the pets in my home just as if they were my own with care and love and attention and just making sure that they are comfortable and don’t feel uneasy and constantly working with them to gain their trust and make them feel safe.

Thank you for taking care of our Rocki. Rocki has found his home away from home because we will book again for sure.

Kayla was wonderful with Sinu. Helped her feel comfortable and took great care of her while I was away. She is thoughtful, responsive and responsible and I would definitely leave Sinu with Kayla again. Thanks Kayla!

Kayla was amazing with Kino. I was a little nervous because Kino has pretty bad anxiety and is fearful of just about everything, but Kayla made him feel comfortable and kept ups updated on how he was doing. So grateful that she opened up her home to our sweet boy ?. Would absolutely recommend.

I take care of your fur babies just as if they were my own and make sure they are comfortable and are not afraid of anything. I’ll make sure they feel safe and can trust me and usually if you have a set schedule I try to stick to that to not throw them off and I am very patient and welcome all. I’m also a dog trainer in training so whatever training work that you are working on with your dog I will implement in walks and just are all around house and anything you may want your dog to learn I can attempt to teach them for however long they are here. If the pups were to ever not get along there is a gate middle of the place and can be closed if need be.

Information Kayla M. would like to know about your pet

How they act around other dogs If they are aggressive towards anything If they are potty trained Where they sleep at night How they act towards strangers

A typical day

I make sure everybody gets their breakfast we go on about 3 to 4 walks a day, if my friends are around I go to the park with their dogs and have them run and play around or just take the dog by itself with me and I just run around with them. I walk mainly around my neighborhood because there’s lots of dogs around here and they get to smell lots of new things. Also if I do have to run errands we usually will just take the dogs with us depending on if the place I’m going allows dogs. I make sure that they do get lunch or dinner depending on if they are fed twice or three times a day. and if they are crate trained I will put them in the crate if the owner says at night more than most of the time I don’t tend to put dogs in crates and they just will sleep in my room with me and maybe a few training sessions here and there is requested.

I am currently unemployed so my schedule is completely open and free to do whatever I want with my time so i have plenty of time to get to know and hangout with my new furry friends. and i’m also attempting to try to do this full time so i’m very serious about my animal care and just want them to be comfortable, happy and have a great time. I also don’t really have a set schedule I usually just base the schedule off of the owners set schedule.
