Pet owner and animal advocate
Pet care experience
I have years experience working in a luxury boarding facility working with multiple breeds of dogs and cats of varying temperaments. I also work with rescue groups/animal shelters and normally have a foster animal or two in the house. Please know that I firmly believe no request is a stupid request. I pride myself in being a true animal lover and quite possibly having seen it all. I’ve been used as a pillow for Leonbergers and Great Danes. I willingly allow kisses, even from mastiffs that drench my face in slobber. I’ve sat in a corner and read recipes to a dog that had ZERO human interaction for weeks on end and fed her cheeseburger just in an attempt to get her to trust me. I’ve been bitten by both dogs and cats. I’ve dealt with all the the “nasty” clean ups, and while that is not my favorite part of animal care, I can truly say- I understand and I got you! I have a special needs pittie that requires medicine every 12 hours for seizures and a heart defect, so if your pup requires meds that is A okay! I understand the importance of not only making sure they get their meds, but that they get it ON TIME. I am here for your crazy, silly 4 legged friends that require extra attention and care. My other rescue pup is dog aggressive. I pride myself on being able to read dogs’ body language and being able to de-escalate issues before they ever occur. I am used to having to be super cautious about everything and I am happy to care for your animals that are a little quirky or not as sociable as others. We all have our days right? I work a full time job as an AR Specialist during the week and this does not allow me to do during the day drop in visits. I do work fully remote at this time, so I am available to pet sit/house sit during the week. Weekends are normally free game. If you have plants that need to be taken care of while you’re gone, I am terrible at taking care of plants and there is a 99% possibility that I will over water them. 🙃
Reviews
Kayla was great with our pup who is fairly high energy and requires medication twice a day. She provided several updates, which we greatly appreciated, and kept our house extremely clean. We would definitely use her again!
Kayla was amazing with Bambi! She is not an easy pup to please. Kayla gave her medicine and coaxed her to eat- not an easy task! This was a 4 night- overnight vacation I would never have been able to take without the peace of mind my Bambi was in such good hands!
Kayla was awesome with my dogs and cat. 10/10 - will definitely be calling her the next time we go out of town!!! ❤
Kayla stayed at our house and took care of our two dogs for a whole week. She is absolutely FABULOUS. I am a bit of a neurotic dog mom, and she made me feel so calm about everything. She booked a meet and greet and was on-time and so great with both of my high energy dogs, one of whom is still a puppy and the other of whom has bad anxiety and requires medication. She took great care of them, gave them plenty of love and exercise, and even took one of our dogs to the vet for us after letting us know that she seemed uncomfortable. She helped our anxious dog through a tornado warning and let me know how he was doing. I cannot recommend her more highly. Your dogs will be so very loved if you have Kayla dogsit. In my mother’s words as I showed everyone in my extended family pictures Kayla was sending all week of the pups playing ball and snuggling, “you struck gold with Kayla!!” Thank you, Kayla, for all you did for our pups! ♥️

The care I offer is unmatched and is specifically catered to you and your pets’ needs. My animals love to lounge and are low energy. But I have many clients with high energy dogs that require walks multiple times per day. As your sitter, I will do what you and your animals want me to do!
Information Kayla P. would like to know about your pet
I think it is important to be aware of any triggers or behavioral issues that a pet has to ensure that all parties are safe and that the pets are not put in any situation where there is potential for them to act out. I want them be happy, safe, and confident at all times. I LOVE all breeds!! I have a soft spot for Pits and Pit mixes, but truly love them all.
A typical day
I’m great at lounging and watching TV, but also love getting outside to walk. Just fill me in on your pets’ fave things and that is what we will do!
