Pet care experience

I treat every pet like family

I’ve been watching and caring for pets since I was little and have always had a love for animals. I’ve been taking care of neighbors and friends pets for years without any issues. I also have two fur babies of my own who receive plenty of walks, attention, and affection, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets as well. I’m currently enrolled at the University of Arizona studying medicine, and I’ve taken several animal related classes simply because of my passion for animals. I’m a very patient, reliable, and attentive person who will treat your pet with the same care and love as my own.

Kayla, did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs, two tortoises, garden and house. She sent messages and pictures daily. Kayla gave love and needed medication to my dogs. I highly recommend her for house sitting and pet watching. I definitely will use her again.

Kayla was absolutely excellent with my dog Maggie. She sent pictures and updates every single day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Maggie was clearly well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. Communication was great, very reliable, and I could tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter

I was so nervous to leave my pups for the first time with a sitter. However, I was so happy and pleasantly surprised to have Kayla as our dog sitter for the first time. She spent so much time with the puppies and was very attentive to their needs. Sending lots of pictures while we were on vacation. I will absolutely be using her hopefully in the future if she’s available. I would highly recommend her to anybody who wants somebody who will truly care for their animals.

Kayla was exactly what we needed in a dog sitter—and more than anything, she gave our 4-month-old Cavapoo a great buddy for the afternoon while I handled errands and got the house in order. She’s incredibly kind, has great energy, and is someone you immediately trust. She was easy to coordinate with, showed up right on time, and clearly loves dogs. Our little pup was zooming around the room trying to impress her, which says everything. Would absolutely book her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very attentive and patient when it comes to caring for animals. I try to be observant to my dogs behaviors to see if soemthing is off and I try to keep a decently consistent schedule with feeding and potty breaks. I also make sure they have enough water especially in Arizona heat.

Pets

A typical day

A typically day with me caring for your pets would depend largely on how old your pet it and what level of affection and energy they have. If they were are higher in energy I would be having playtime with toys but if they are are on more of the calm affectionate side just some nice pets.
