Pet care experience

Experienced Rescuer = Peace of Mind

My soul belongs to cats, and my heart belongs to dogs! I've been around both my whole life, and now my husband and I live with our two dogs and two cats. I've also been rescuing and fostering cats since 2021 and started the same with dogs in 2026. My pets and fosters are my whole world, and it's my mission to provide that same level of dedication to my clients' fur babies! I know first-hand how challenging it can be to trust someone with your beloved pets. You worry about their safety, their health, their tender emotions, and how much they'll miss you. Once we meet, I hope I can assure you that my gentle and fun-loving nature, attention to detail, and skilled observations will leave your fur baby in great hands. I document everything when caring for animals so I can provide detailed updates after each check-in. This includes diet, bathroom breaks, and behavior. And trust me, not a single symptom or sign of stress goes unnoticed! We'll stay in touch for whatever you and your fur babies need. Even if only for peace of mind, asking for specific photos/videos, or making an adjustment to their care routine. :) My experience includes: •Cat behavior, confidence-building, & enrichment •Positive reinforcement training (cats & dogs) •Basic puppy care and training •Dog walking •Kitten care: newborns to juveniles •Senior care (cats & dogs) •Medication administration: topical, oral, and injections •Mild-moderate behavior care: shy/"spicey" cats, reactive dogs •Mild-moderate special needs: mobility challenges, illnesses, injury recovery •Detailed symptom documentation for rescue and veterinary care Being trusted to care for your fur babies is the highest honor! Let's connect so I can meet them and see if I'm the right fit for you. :)

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your home is your pet's safe space, and it's my job to keep it that way! I'll always stick to their routine, no matter how detailed. I'm a stickler for "door dasher" pets and animals who have a history of bolting, so I'll always put things in place to prevent it. Dogs will always be observed during yard potty breaks or taken on walks. And finally, all animals will be observed very closely during each check-in so you can stay as up-to-date as possible!

Kayla was amazing with our very outspoken German Shepherd. She sent pictures of food and bathroom issues and lots of playtime pictures. Kayla even went above our dog issues and help clean up pool toys and tomatoe cages that fell over during a storm. We would highly recommend her to watch any of pets.

Kayla did a wonderful job taking care of my cats. She administered my cat’s medication with no problems. I have already rebooked with her.

Kayla is so good at what she does. We were nervous about having someone watch our Harley. Not anymore. We are so fortunate to have found her. Her attention to detail is so appreciated.

Schedule

I'm currently self-employed part-time and set my own schedule, outside of rescue commitments. This means my schedule is flexible within reason, and I'm often available for multiple check-ins per day, if needed.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kayla can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I require meet-and-greets before booking. It helps me get to know you, your fur babies, your home, and your routine. I also want to make sure I can answer any questions you have! :)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
