As I already have animals in my home, pet care is my every day life. Walks occur multiple times a day, and my boyfriend will take them out for more enriching play outdoors. I'm with the animals full time, which means any animals in my care will have my full attention.

Safety, trust & environment

In my own home, I have multiple grassed areas for potty time, as well as a dog park for enrichment. I have a separate room for animals who need it, where they can have a calming time away from my own animals if needed. Of which being a service dog and a friendly cat. In a client's home, I make sure to take care of the pet to the best of my ability, taking them out as frequently as asked, but also giving them some play time for enrichment when I'm there. I follow things to the letter, so any special requests will be followed to the T to make sure your pet is happy and healthy.

Information Kayla R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any medication, dietary preferences, exercise preferences, tempermant with other animals, and overall quirks your animal may have. This will help me to specialize the care that your pet will receive!

A typical day

While watching pets, I like to play mentally stimulating games with treats and toys, as well as taking them to the dog park to allow running and fresh air. I like to do some basic training tricks, in order to give more challenging tasks to high energy animals.

All animals deserve gentle care

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of animals since elementary school. Raising puppys from birth and caring for seniors during their final days. I have learned the ins and outs of grooming, cleaning, feeding, and basic training. I've delt with the pickiest of animals, and the most relaxed. When it comes to keeping animals calm and happy, I am the sitter for you. Whether your animal has aggression with others, or is incredibly anxious, I'll create an environment specifically to accommodate them.

I highly recommend Kit as a pet sitter and dog walker. They has a genuine love for animals and currently helps care for two dogs, a cat, and three snakes, giving her experience with a variety of pets and personalities. Kit is attentive, punctual, and has an excellent work ethic. They follow directions well, sticks to schedules, and treats every animal with patience and compassion. I trust Them completely to provide safe, reliable, and loving care for any pet.

If you’re looking for a caregiver who truly puts animals first, Kit is your ideal match. Kit has an exceptional, almost instinctual, ability to connect with pets of all kinds, from high-energy dogs to the most independent cats, and even the occasional larger-than-life challenge animal. Growing up on a ranch, Kit brings hands-on experience with horses and other large animals, so she’s uniquely equipped to handle complex needs with calm confidence and strength. What sets Kit apart: Unmatched safety and vigilance: Kit will safeguard your animal from both internal and external threats, following every instruction to the letter and adapting quickly when plans change. Parents can trust she’s watching, assessing, and ready to respond. Transparent communication: She’s incredibly responsive and proactive with updates, photos, and progress reports. If you want more visuals or details, she delivers promptly and consistently. Mess-friendly care: Kit isn’t deterred by mess—she cleanly manages every situation and leaves your space tidy and organized after care. Reliability and responsibility: With a ranch background, she handles demanding, physical tasks with ease and shows up with the patience and empathy your pet deserves. Gentle, patient companionship: Whether your animal is shy or exuberant, Kit meets them where they are, building trust through kindness, consistency, and reassurance. Complete peace of mind: You’ll feel confident leaving your pet in Kit’s care, knowing you’ve chosen someone who prioritizes safety, well-being, and clear communication above all. If you want a Rover caregiver who is loving, dependable, and capable of handling the most demanding animal care scenarios, Kit is the person you’re looking for. I whole-heartedly recommend Kit R. for pet parents who want the best possible care for their beloved animals.
