Safety, trust & environment

Our house is bustling with energy while the kids are home. If it's a week day then it will be quiet most of the day while they are at school. Copper and any dog friends visiting get to come and go as they please . We have a fenced in back yard. Copper loves to get sunshine , vitamin D and his favorite acvitivty is patrolling the premises for lizards that may be hiding under patio furniture or the deck box. My husband works from home and has his office downstairs so copper loves to hang out in there and be next to his human friend while he's resting . I have lots of dog beds placed in various spots around the house . I only let copper ( and his dog friends) downstairs which is very spacious. The dogs are allowed to lay on the couch. They will get walks and trips to the dog park for ball throwing if they like that sort of thing (my boy loves playing catch). I am excited to welcome your baby inside my home while you are away.

Information Kayla Z. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I need to be aware of. My requirement to board your pet is that your dog gets along well with others and is comfortable around children.

A typical day

Your fur babies will get plenty of attention and love. They will have lots of opportunities for play time and to get energy out with daily walks. I also like to take my golden to the local dog parks for some ball throwing fun. My neighborhood is hoppping with grass hoppers, crickets and according to my toddler, a million rollie pollies. Copper loves all of it. There is not one blade of grass he hasn't sniffed and I am sure he will be excited to show the neighborhood off to his visiting companion.

Pet care experience

I am a PET LOVER . I treat my furry four legged friends like family members. My house consists of three young children 12 and under who adore pets and are a huge part of the positive environment in my home - lots of love and warmth. During the most part of the day ... the kids are at school. My husband works from home and I'm currently at home not working. I have one five year old Golden Retriever and one fifteen year old Siamese cat who sleeps for the majority of time. I allow my dog to roam downstairs which is plenty of space for first floor. My entire house is 3400 square feet . The dogs are welcome to go in and out as they please . My fenced in backyard space will allow for plenty of sunshine and lizard watching time ( my dogs favorite thing to do). There are dog beds - several around the lower level and my husbands office is downstairs so this is where copper hangs out most of the day . Please feel free to send your pets own bed or comfort items. My furry guy gets walks during the day and also frequent visits to the dog park for ball throwing which he absolutely adores . I can either stick to leashed walks or happy to take your baby along to get a ball throwing work out . I have been around pets my whole life. Whatever it is you need or request--I can handle . Special diet, medication and seniors - I've done it all.

Kayla took wonderful care of our golden retriever, Willow, for the day. Willow immediately became part of the family, enjoying playtime with Kayla’s golden retriever and her kids. When we picked her up, she looked like she had spent the day at a spa—happy, relaxed, and beautifully cared for. It was obvious she felt completely at home and honestly seemed like she didn’t want to leave! We had total peace of mind knowing she was in such loving hands. Kayla and her family are amazing Rover hosts, and we highly recommend them.

Kayla checked in on our cat for us while we were on vacation. She stopped by frequently. She made sure our cat had food, fresh water, a clean litter box and gave her lots of attention and cuddles. We came home to a happy kitty.

Kayla took excellent care of my Great Pyrenees during multiple overnight stays. She stayed attentive the entire time and kept me updated with frequent photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed her company. She also went the extra mile with treats and attention, which made a big difference. I would trust Kayla again without hesitation and strongly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable dog care.

Kayla provided loving support for our babies when we were traveling. Finding the right person to care for our dogs can sometimes be difficult for us as we have two German shepherds and we want to make sure we find the right person! She was great with them! They always love when she comes! One of them requires medication and she was able to handle it without any trouble!!
