Dog lover since birth!
Pet care experience
I have owned a dog ever since I was young and was able to create an unconditional love and bond with him within minutes of meeting him at the shelter. I have also house sat for 2 of my uncle’s dogs multiple times when he has to go away which is where I found my love for dogs especially on showing tender loving care for them. He has always trusted me with his dogs and I hope you can too!
Reviews
Could not recommend this sitter less. She added another dog on the stay with less than 24 hours notice when I had booked weeks in advance. When I shared my concerns about the dogs potentially not getting along since it was a stranger, new house and strange dog she insisted it would be fine. Also should be noted that in her listing she says she takes one dog at a time. Less than 24 hours into the stay (when I was already out of state) insisted I find another sitter since the dogs weren’t getting along since the other dog was a “regular” even though I had booked weeks in advance and this dogs stay was last minute. She then complained that she preferred my dog find a new sitter because he was crying over night (probably because he was stressed) and it woke her up so she didn’t want to keep him. My dog ended up in a boarding facility and as a rescue dog this is literally my worst fear when having to travel which is why I selected a sitter with no other dogs in the home to ensure an outcome like this would not ever occur. Clearly not a person who should be caring for dogs.
Kayla was fantastic with our lab puppy! She took him to play and was able to deal with all of his energy. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and fun environment. We will definitely be having Kayla watch after him again!
Kayla did such a great job with our dog. We highly recommend her.
Kayla did an amazing job taking care of Ginger! We had warned her ahead of time of Ginger’s peculiarities, and she handled them impeccably. We would be so happy to leave Ginger with her again!

Information Kayla R. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know whether the dog is okay with other dogs, okay being off leashed in a park or not, is playful, and their overall behavior at home!
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs by playing fetch, giving them a toy with treats that makes them really think, and giving them long walks and of course love and affection! My home is near a dog park that is walking distance and I love to take dogs there especially since it is not a super busy park!

I am currently a college student at Santa Clara University with a super light school schedule for the summer. Walking around campus is always something I love to do, and doing it with a furry companion would make me love it even more!
