I work from home, so your pet gets constant attention and care. Clean, calm home with a fenced yard for safe play. Daily walks that dogs love to join. I also love to run if your pup does! Experience in veterinary settings; comfortable administering medication. I only host 1–2 dogs at a time for personalized care. Single dog stays available upon request. Active or low energy, I match your pet’s needs.

Kayla was fantastic! She was very accommodating to our last minute travel changes. Her communication was excellent. We loved getting pictures and videos of our floof while away. We’re very thankful he was loved and cared for! :)

We had such a wonderful experience with Kayla. They took care of our dog for the day, and we couldn’t be happier with the level of care and attention provided. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear our pup was in good hands—he was comfortable right We highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. We will definitely book again in the future!

We couldn't be happier with Kayla as our pet sitter! Cutter absolutely loves going to her—it's clear he feels safe and happy in her care. Knowing he's in such good hands gives us complete peace of mind when we're away. We truly appreciate the frequent updates and photos we receive during our time apart, which help us stay connected and reassured. Highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter!

Schedule

I work from home, so your pet will have consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. I can easily step away for walks, potty breaks, or playtime whenever needed. I’m also close enough to walk to and from my kids school, so a twice a day walk is guaranteed. I’m happy to match your pet’s energy — whether that’s a relaxed day lounging in the sun, short walks, or going for a jog. On weekends, I enjoy hiking and being outdoors, but I also love quiet days at home with movies and downtime. Whatever your pet prefers, I can accommodate.

Safety, trust & environment

In your home, I will stick closely to your pet’s routine and any house rules you have in place. I hold a Top Secret clearance, so you can trust that your home and belongings are in safe, responsible hands. In my home, I have a calm, structured environment. I have a spayed, very submissive hairless Xoloitzcuintli who does well with other pets. My kids are with me part time and are very respectful of animals and mindful about doors and boundaries. I have a cat who was raised in a foster environment and is very comfortable around other animals. My home is a safe, low stress space where pets can relax and feel at ease.

Pets

A typical day

Since I work from home, my schedule is flexible and built around the pets I’m caring for. If your pet is low energy, they can hang out with me while I work, relax in the sun on the lanai, or nap nearby. If they’re more active, we can go for walks, runs, or play sessions throughout the day. On weekends, we can keep things calm with movie nights and lounging, or get outside for hikes, trips to the beach, or dog park visits. I also have a fenced backyard where dogs can run, play ball, or relax on the lanai while I read or spend time outside.

To give your pet the best care possible, I like to know: • Feeding schedule and dietary restrictions • Any medications or special care needs • Personality (shy, cuddly, playful, reactive, etc.) • How they do with other animals on walks • Favorite toys, treats, and comfort items • Walking preferences (pace, leash behavior, routes) • How they do left alone (crate or out) if I run to the grocery • Furniture rules (pets are allowed on furniture/bed in my home, but I will follow your preferences) • Fears or triggers (thunder, loud noises, strangers, kids) • Emergency contact and vet information • Any house rules you want followed My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable and at home as possible while keeping their routine consistent.
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.
