Experienced Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
Please read my entire profile before requesting! Thank you!☺️ I have been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. In my earliest years, my family would breed AKC-registered German Shepherds. In those years, I was typically with the puppies playing or sleeping with them. Now, my family fosters doodle mixes with a reputable nationwide organization. In the last three years, we have fostered over 30 dogs. I also worked in a pet care facility that offered boarding, daycare, training, and grooming for cats and dogs. Throughout those two years, I have worked with hundreds of animals of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My job mainly consisted of feeding, walking, and cleaning up after dogs.
Reviews
Kayla does amazing with my pups. They absolutely love her and my rescue who can be a bit selective of who she likes loved Kayla as wells. Can’t recommend her enough!
Kayla did a wonderful job with my pups!! She was incredibly kind and took her time to gain both of their trust. I highly recommend her for all of your pup care needs!
Kayla did a fantastic job we were so happy to see that the dogs warmed up to her so quickly. We will definitely hire her again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment
Unfortunately, I live in an apartment complex that does not allow animals. With that, I am unable to house animals for any period of time. However, I have no problem caring for animals in the comfort of your home. From working in a pet boarding facility, I know the effects that new environments and people can have on some animals. My second biggest priority, after the safety of your furry family member, is the comforting relationship between me and your pet and the trusting relationship between you and me.
Information Kayla T. would like to know about your pet
I like to know the dogs personality, schedule and needs ahead of time to determine if I am a good fit to care for your pet!
A typical day
I love to play and walk dogs! Typically I walk dogs around their neighborhood because it’s what they’re used to! I do not take dogs to dog parks though, as that is an added risk. I want to provide a safe environment for your pet!

Availability
I have my schedule set to only available for the days that I am off of work. If you are needing care for the days I have marked unavailable, feel free to reach out! I will just have limited availability in those days. I do work twelve hour shifts, and have to stay within DeKalb City limits on my hour break, but can take that at anytime throughout my shift. On days that I am not schedule to work, I have open availability!
