Availability
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.

About Kayla V.

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!
Information Kayla V. would like to know about your pet
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! :)
A typical day
In addition to your preferred routine, pups and kitties deserve enrichment and all the cuddles they want! I love using puzzle feeders, interactive toys, and catnip with cats (if allowed).

Pet care experience
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 which has given me quite the education on feline care. My pets 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. :)

Reviews
Kayla is the most professional and caring person! She takes excellent care of each pet and is truly the best! And the cats had a fun time with her! Thanks a million!
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.
Kayla has done a great job, I greatly appreciate everything she does.
Kayla was AWESOME! My kitties loved her! They loved her so much they actually came out to say "Hi" to her. (They don't usually come out for kitty sitters.) She spoiled them every visit with treats and num-nums. She also did a great job feeding, watering, and cleaning their boxes. ❤️🐾❤️ Thank you Kayla! ❤️🐾❤️
