Pet care experience

Best friends deserve the best care!

Every pet deserves care as special as they are. As a dog mom of two (& cat mom of 1!) I understand the importance of finding someone you can truly trust with your best friend. ❤️ I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to following your pet’s routine exactly as you outline it. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a game of fetch, a slower stroll, or simply some company & cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to their individual needs. I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs with additional medical and mobility needs. My own dogs have required surgery recovery care, medications, joint supplements, and ongoing management of medical conditions. I’ve also cared for dogs with arthritis and mobility limitations who need extra time outside and special consideration around the home. I’m comfortable following medication schedules, recovery instructions, potty routines, and other care instructions you provide. Your pet’s food and treats will always be given according to your instructions, and I’m never afraid of a little cleanup if accidents happen! 🐾 During visits, your pet gets my full attention for the entire service, along with photo updates so you can see how they’re doing. And if your pup stays with me, they’ll have a loving, social environment with my two friendly dogs and plenty of opportunities for play, exercise, and relaxation. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident that your pet is receiving thoughtful, dependable care while you’re away. I pride myself on my communication with all pet parents! Every dog is different, and I’m happy to work with you to make their care feel as comfortable and familiar as possible.

Loves dogs. Has 2! Warm hearted! Caring! Responsible! Active with her dogs!Compassionate! Kayla has always wanted a dog and now has 2. She was not able to have 1 because of where she lived. Now she can. She takes them for walks and swimming. Constantly active with them. Kayla would be AMAZING doing this! Perfect for her!

I have known Kayla for several years. The past Almost 2 years she has had her own Chocolate Lab and also a Golden Retriever. She has had them since puppies and poured her heart and soul into them with a lot of devoted time training them. I know Kayla would be a Great Dog sitter and care for your pet as she does her own. Kayla has her "Kids" on a schedule, takes them for a walk or 2x daily, takes them to the Dog Park on a regular basis and has a Big fenced in back yard for dogs to play and roam. She interacts with animals well, and Enjoys being around them.

Kayla is the most trustworthy person I know, I’ve trusted her on multiple occasions to care for all my pets, not just my dog. She cares about and loves all animals, and I know she takes care of my pets like they’re her own fur babies. She follows regular feeding, walking, playtime, and potty schedules.

Kayla is sure to always be compassionate to anyone she meets- and that goes for our furry friends too! She treats any pet she meets as if it were her own and provides nothing but love and fun. Kayla works hard to ensure every dog is cared for the way she cares for and loves her own.

Hi! Kayla is a very caring person and loves dogs. She greets all the dogs at the dog park and enjoys interacting with them. My dogs love going to Kayla’s for playtime or for sleep overs. While there she plays and feeds them. On more than one occasion she has trimmed my dogs nails, so they aren’t to long so they don’t get caught in carpet or other things. She does not like to see any dog get mistreated or not getting taken care of properly. She will stand up for the dog every time.
