Highlights
Pet care experience
Grad Student & Animal Behaviorist!
I have always been passionate about animal care, specifically dogs. I have 3.5 years of veterinary technician experience and have also worked at boarding facilities such as Pet Paradise. I am a student at Saint Louis University majoring in Biology, furthering my education in animal behavior. I enjoy jogging in my spare time, and have the stamina needed to play with or jog with pets. I am available on weekends during the day and most evenings. There’s nothing I love more than taking care of pets! I look forward to taking care of your fur babies!
Cat care experience
Kayla also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kayla is amazing! My dogs and cat loved her! I could tell how happy they were in the photos she sent. She house sat for the weekend, and was exceptionally clean and considerate. My senior dog is diabetic and a picky eater, and she was able to get him to eat all his meals! With her background as a vet tech I completely trusted her with giving him is insulin. She’s so kind and took such good care of my pets!
Kayla did an absolutely fantastic job taking care of my Luna. She was thorough, attentive and followed every instruction that was provided. I couldn’t imagine someone doing a better job.
Kayla is a fantastic pet caregiver! She has former vet tech experience, so she’s very knowledgeable about pets, and she’s also watched several of her friends’ pets. Kayla is extremely dependable and a wonderful person to have watching your pets.
Kayla is a fantastic sitter! She is reliable and she kept me updated throughout her visits with my cat, Archy. I could tell that he was happy and comfortable with her. I highly recommend Kayla!
Kayla Stalcup is the most caring and selfless person that I know. She has a gigantic heart and cares deeply for animals. This was reflected in the several years that she spent as a veterinary technician while she was at college. She is an excellent dog-mom to our dog Uma. She has several years of pet sitting experience as well with watching our friends animals for them while they are out of town as well as clients from the old veterinarians office that she worked for. I whole heartedly recommend her to pet sit on Rover. She will care for those animals like they are her own.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am a helicopter parent when it comes to my own dog, and treat other pets with the same level of care and caution. I love sending pictures (if allowed) to ensure great care, and frequently keeps owners updated on how their fur babies are doing.
Pets
A typical day
I will treat your pets as my own, and take part in all of their favorite activities such as playing with toys, going on walks, and snuggling on the couch for those of lower energy. If your pet needs their space (like mine does) I totally understand that too! I am willing to do whatever it takes to make them comfortable and happy
