Friendly and kind animal lover!

Pet care experience

I am currently a senior staff pet professional. I work for a dog boarding/daycare company so I have active experience in caring for multiple dogs at once, while still being attentive and giving individual attention to each dog. I am very comfortable with handling all sized dogs with all different personalities. I have cared for everything from 3-pound Pomeranians to 100+ pound Great Danes. I am working part-time to allow myself free time to take on jobs for people looking for more personal dogsitting for their pets. In addition to my professional experience, I have had over ten years of personal experience. I have had dogs my whole life, and currently have three dogs and three cats. I always make sure that all my pets are given the best life and are constantly stimulated with fun activities. While sending your dog to a doggy daycare is good, they can be overlooked due to the amount of other dogs they have there a day. Those places get upwards of 100 dogs daily, which can make it hard for the staff to attend to each dog's needs in a deeper way. I personally go around to every single room and spend quality time with each dog. This translates to my at-home dogsitting, where I ensure your dog will get the highest level of attention and care. I also make sure to send constant picture updates. Not only do I offer a more personal stay for your pets, but I charge less than the large companies do, making it easier for you all around. I want you as well as your pet to not have to worry about anything. My passion is caring for others, but especially dogs. I am appreciative of any opportunity I am given and always make sure to do my best work and give my best care.

Kayla was a great help for me many times when I needed her either for overnight stays or drop-ins. She was responsive and kept in constant contact with me. Great dog sitter and I give a strong recommendation to anyone looking for one.

My dog was in great care with Kayla. She sent us constant updates and pictures. Super loving and gentle with our baby, and a kind caregiver overall. My husband and I 100% recommend her to anyone seeking a dog sitter!

Amazing communication and lots of picture updates! Our dog was very comfortable with Kayla and seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely be using her again soon. Thanks again!

Kayla is great and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She helped watch our dog, bearded dragon, and gecko while we were away. She said she’s had those pets herself so it was nice to have someone familiar with lots of animals.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very large fenced yard with three friendly dogs to keep your pets company. However if your dog is shy or not very dog-friendly, they can be put in a separate area for the time being. My house is surrounded by three parks that have lots of space for your dog to play in. I also have plenty of toys for your dog to choose from. I have frisbees, tennis balls, ropes, chewing bones, kiddie pool, bubbles, etc. We also have a trampoline if your dog is interested in that! If I am visiting in your home, I always make sure to respect the place I am in, and stick to the routine that you give your dog. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible.

Information Kayla S. would like to know about your pet

I would love to get to know your dog's personality, funny things they do, or any special requests that you want me to do. It would also be helpful if I knew how your dog reacts around other dogs or lots of stimulation, since I have other dogs and people living with me at home. I do my best to make sure your dog is comfortable and happy during their stay.

A typical day

Some activity options for your dog can be fetch, going on a walk, playing on the trampoline, splashing in the kiddie pool, or chasing bubbles! I have countless options for your dog and will see which ones they like best. My house is right next to three different parks that all have lots of space to run and play. We also live next to a town center, so your dog is welcome to explore and sniff the area if it is something you're comfortable with :)

Availability

I work part-time at a doggy daycare facility, which allows me to get extra experience on the side, but also allows me to have free time to care for others' dogs on the side in a more personal way. I am very flexible with my schedule and do my best to accommodate your needs. I can almost always accept same-day bookings. I also am flexible with extended stays if something comes up. My priority is the dogs, so I will do my best to always be there for them as well as work with you to make sure you do not have to worry.
