Pet care experience

Experienced & Loving Care ❤️

Hi, I’m Kayla! 🐾 Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog, Brownie, when I was 6 years old, and he was truly my best friend. After caring for him from puppyhood through his senior years, I learned just how much our pets become part of our families. Although we sadly lost him a few years ago, my love for animals has only continued to grow. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from young puppies to seniors, and I’m comfortable with pets who need a little extra care and patience. I have helped train puppies, worked with multiple litters of puppies, cared for senior dogs, and have experience with dogs with diabetes and arthritis. I have also received training through the SPCA working with both cats and dogs. Pet care has been something my family has been involved in for years. My mom and sister were pet sitters, and I spent a lot of time helping them care for their clients' pets. I also have 2+ years of experience working with horses, so I’m comfortable around animals of all sizes! 🏡 Your pets get my full attention Pet sitting is currently my primary work, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate a lot of time to the animals in my care. When I’m staying with your pets, they aren't simply being “checked on”—I want them to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. Every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup loves: 🐾 Long walks or short strolls 🎾 Playing fetch and getting some energy out 🛋️ Curling up on the couch for a lazy afternoon 💕 Lots of cuddles and attention 🥣 Keeping a specific feeding schedule 💊 Extra care or medication 🌳 Spending time outside …I’m happy to accommodate them. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing that your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving the same love and attention I would want someone to give my own. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, send regular updates and photos, and make sure you come home to happy, well-loved pets. ❤️ Your pets aren't just a booking to me—they're family, and I’ll treat them that way.
