Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Kayla and I am a student at Boston College. I have sadly needed to move away from my beloved furry friends for school but am eager for any chance to walk and cuddle with your pet! I've had my dog for 8 years and love taking care of him. In my free time I love taking my dog on hikes and long walks around the neighborhood. I often house sit/ per sit for friends and family who are out of town- I walk their dogs, feed them and provide care and company because my own dog has bad anxiety I find that this is very important to the mental health of dogs. I spent 5 years working at a zoo and have experience with providing medication as well.

Kayla is great! Super communicative and sent several updates throughout her stay with my pup. Makes it easier to be away when I know my GSD is being well taken cared for and loved on. Thank you, Kayla!

Kayla was so helpful in watching our pup! She was very communicative and provided updates/photos throughout her time with him, which left us reassured that he was receiving great care.

Kayla was lovely and the dogs immediately liked her. The dogs were happy when we got home and Kayla communicated regularly. The house was in great condition when we got home. I would definitely recommend Kayla.

Kayla did not communicate that she wouldn’t be able to make it—I had to text her several times to remind her.

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure to use a leash when going out to ensure the safety and security of your dog. I have fenced-in deck space that I also use to get my pets fresh air without worrying they will run off

Information Kayla S. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to take any additional needs into consideration for your pet to provide them with the best care possible when I am with them. Let me know if they have any aversions such as being uncomfortable around people/other dogs. I have a lot of experience with caring for highly anxious dogs and like to make sure that they aren’t overstimulated or overwhelmed

A typical day

I love going to long walks and hikes to keep my dogs entertained and to help them burn off some of that extra energy during the day while you are away. I love walking around the Fells (where there is a nice big dog park) or going for walks along the river
