Former Vet Assistant
Pet care experience
My professional background includes 9 years as a veterinary assistant and several months working in an animal shelter. My greatest joy was found working with the cats and small dogs, including the sweet, the spicy, and the timid one. I understand how stressful it can sometimes be for your pet to have a stranger in their home and I take pride in my ability to make them feel comfortable and safe in whatever way that means for them. I have experience giving medications including insulin injections, topical treatments, and oral medications.
Reviews
Kayla is an excellent cat-sitter! She sent me pics of my cat and treated her really well. Highly recommend Kayla!
Kayla is great! She sent me pictures of my cat and was very communicative. :)
Kayla is super responsive, updates me throughout my time away, and gives the best attention to my cat. I have rebooked with her and plan to again. She will take good care of your pets and your home!
Kayla did an excellent job caring for our two dogs and two cats. She sent text messages and pictures to assure us that our furry friends were doing fine. We would definitely use Kayla again!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat all pets as if they were my own. I will spoil them with attention as much as they will happily accept, or give them all the space they need to feel safe. Every pet is different so my care will always be tailored to their needs.
Information Kayla S. would like to know about your pet
I only request full disclosure of any medical or behavioral concerns with your pet that may impact my ability to care for them. I cannot diagnose or treat any health or behavioral issues but I am comfortable helping to manage existing care in most cases.
A typical day
For a social pets I love to play! Especially toys that get them running around and fully engaged. For shy pets, I enjoy sitting nearby and talking to them or reading a book to help them feel more safe with me around.
