Very caring and responsible.

I want to be fair, while also saying that we would not take our dog to Kayla again. Kayla was very nice. We went to her house before confirming our decision to leave Migo here for a week. Everything went well and she seemed happy to have Migo there. She does have a cat and we discussed that Migo has no experience with cats, and would probably chase the cat if given the chance. Still she did not seem concerned, or if she was, she should have declined to take care of Migo right then. I wish she had. We have used Rover numerous times in various locations (we like to take her to someone near where we travel if we drive). To our knowledge we have never had a negative experience. Please don't misunderstand, Migo was fine when we picked her up and I don't believe Kayla would ever hurt a dog. But these were the issues.... First she does not have a cell phone so communication was not as convenient as it could have been. We left Migo on Saturday and had no communication from her until I contacted her myself several days later to ask how Migo was. Second, she is apparently very strict with the dogs and expects obedience training. She complained that Migo did not understand "no", but otherwise was no problem. Maybe this expectation should be in her profile. Migo is 11 years old and knows many commands well, but apparently not "no" the way she said it. Third, Kayla is very opinionated and seemed to criticize the food we feed her as well as the quantity. We take very good care of our dog and don't need this type of advice. She asked us to bring a bowl for food, which my husband forgot and she made a big deal about finding a bowl since she doesn't have any. Sheesh! It's a half cup... anything would work. Fourth, and worst was her complaints about how traumatized her cat was, "didn't eat or poop for 4 days". She said Migo did not chase the cat until near the end of the visit but perhaps just the nearby "danger" caused her stress. We felt very sorry about that and really wished that she had made the choice to decline Migo's visit. We do not want any trouble and besides these items, found Kayla to be very pleasant. I think she cares about her doggy visitors.
