Expert dog mom & rescue foster
Pet care experience
Hey there! I’m Kayleigh, but perhaps better known as Guinness & Gertie’s mom! 🐾 I live on the cusp of Victorian Village and Harrison West and work full time as a corporate real estate project manager. My husband and I have a 9 year old lab named Guinness who we’ve had since a puppy and a 3 year old pittie named Gertrude who we fostered and couldn’t let go of! They are our world. We’ve also welcomed over 25 foster dogs of all ages, sizes and needs into our home over the last 5 years. Fostering has given me experience with all types of dog breeds, personalities, and medical needs. It’s also taught me a lot about safety precautions and general dog dynamics both separately and with other dogs. You can count on me to treat and love on your dog as my own, just as I’ve done with every dog that I’ve fostered. I will always put your dogs safety and comfort first and will be communicative with you so you can feel at ease!
Reviews
Pixie had an awesome time at Kayleigh's house while we were in Chicago! Would absolutely love for her to stay there again.
I contacted Kayleigh because of her experience with fostering dogs. I imagined that she would be familiar with working with nervous pit bulls like my pup, Suki. I am so glad that I did. Suki liked her and her husband right away and the stay went so smoothly. Thank you!
Kayleigh was amazing! She sent pictures and videos frequently and walked him multiple times. I felt l so much better about leaving my fur baby for a few days. I would definitely book again!
Kayleigh was great during the whole process of having her come walk our dog! She communicates very well and is a joy to talk to. She followed all instructions perfectly and provided some great pictures of our dog throughout the walk. We'll definitely be choosing her again for her stellar care.

Safety, trust & environment
Having two dogs of my own, I know how important it is that you trust me with yours! If I am walking your dog, I would prefer to use a harness to ensure complete safety. I will always have one with me if that is necessary! I’m experienced with dogs that may not be perfect on leash, are leash aggressive, or otherwise. I am always aware of my surroundings, other dogs, children, scooters, bikes, etc. I will always make sure your dog is safe, comfortable and HAPPY! If I am welcoming your dog into my home, I will want to do a meet with our two dogs first! Our dogs are very dog friendly and through my rescue work I have gained experience with dog dynamics, safety and proper play behavior.

Information Kayleigh G. would like to know about your pet
How they are with other dogs and I would want to know how your dog is on a walk. Are they leash aggressive, should we stay away from other dogs, scared of bikes, allergies, play style, will chase a cat,etc. to ensure everyone can have a pleasant walk/stay.
A typical day
I love to use snuffle mats, lick mats and let the dogs play together if they wish while being monitored by me. I love long walks on the bike path, to Goodale Park or just around the neighborhood. I do try to make it a point to give dogs different routes each time to get new smells!
