Honorary Fur baby Auntie!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m 25 years old from the West Side of Chicago, where I was born and raised. I’m a hard-working woman and I love to learn since I left college I focused on building my own brand online When I have time in between the nine to fives. But I am at the point where I want to actually follow my dreams of traveling and working from my laptop. I love to travel learning new cultures and traditions, I am such a foodie and love to attend festivals! Even though I am adventurous, I’m also a homebody. Nothing like snuggling up on the couch cuddling with the pooch or kitty, and drinking a cup of hot tea. I am an honorary for baby auntie! So unfortunately growing up, I couldn’t have any pets besides fish. Because my grandma was allergic but that didn’t keep me away from the fur babies! I grew up at my aunts house taking care of her Shitzu named Spike. We had him from the age of three till the age of 14 when he passed away. I took him on walks, spent every summer there, played with him constantly. I’ve also had the pleasure of pet sitting for my uncle and his huge pity named Sheba. Sheba is a laid-back dog, she loves to sit and look pretty. I’ve also had a great opportunity of spending some time in San Francisco and was gifted a beautiful German-Shepherd Lab puppy and her name was Iroquois. It wasn’t easy taking care of a puppy but it was so rewarding. She was very intelligent and loved her zoo miss! Recently before moving back to Chicago my roommates had a blue nose pit name Genesis. We thought he was a laid-back dog but he tricked us. He was definitely three dogs and one. He came to our home as a three month old baby and is now two years old. I’ve also rescued a kitten accidentally. Found him under a car during a rain storm. My roommates (who had another cat) at the time Anti-bottle-fed him until he had to be three months old and I found him a family who was able to take care of him. So I’ve had the experience taking care of pups and kitties of all ages and breeds, and I spoiled them all. I haven’t had much HOUSE SITTING experience but I have stayed at peoples houses while traveling. I will put passion into housesitting and pet sitting because it is an honor to be able to take care of your most valuable possessions.

Kayla was very reliable for a short period of time until she stopped showing up with no notice. Left me in a very crappy situation. Really upsetting because I really liked her.

Safety, trust & environment

I am available to provide any specific rules that you have. I make sure your kittens or dogs are comfortable as possible. Whether giving them extra treats, extra cuddles, extra time playing I try to go the distance to make sure they are happy and healthy.

Information Kayla M. would like to know about your pet

A couple questions I have, is your dog a biter? Are they okay with strangers? How are they in stores? If it’s a puppy, how’s the house breaking going? Do they have a tendency of running off? Do they have to take medicine? Do they have any past injuries that might flare up if they exert to much energy? How are they with other dogs?

A typical day

I am a sucker for dogs who can do tricks. I love to teach and have fun at the same time so there would be lots of time at the park. Hopefully when our time is over, your pup is worn out, ready to eat and has learn a new trick or two.

My routine is open availability. I am a social media manager and virtual assistant so I work for my computer. I usually work between the hours of 10 to 5/6 PM. But even then it is not a strict schedule. I prefer house sitting because it is perfect for me to travel while also working digitally but also to give you a piece of mind that your home is safe, Protected, and being looked after.
