I'll adventure with your dog!
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Kaylie, I'm 23 years old, and VERY passionate about dogs! I have over 6 years of experience working with pups of all sizes and temperaments, and am confidently comfortable with them all. I’ve worked as an assistant trainer at a company where dogs get to go on adventure-based classes to different canyon trails and to the beach! I work with dogs both on and off-leash, and have experience in basic training that I could help you with! Often working with large packs of dogs, I have ample knowledge on dog behavior and the way they interact/communicate with not only me, but other dogs as well. I know what to look out for to ensure your dog is safe, happy, and not ever feeling stressed or scared. I also have experience administering medications and providing basic medical care to dogs. There's nothing I love more than getting to engage dogs in an active and positive way, making sure they are fully taken care of, loved, and happy!
Reviews
My dog is a bit shy and requires a little extra patience and love. Kaylie was absolutely amazing with him! She took him to the beach and took all the pictures to send to me ?. I would highly recommend Kaylie to anyone needing someone to love their pup. Will definitely use her again in the future!
My dog is hesitate to go on walks with people she doesn’t know but she loved Kaylie and had no problem!
Kaylie takes such good care of my picky, dainty little Moo. She takes great photos, and my Moo absolutely loves her (as do I!). I can't recommend her more highly. I will continue to book her as much as I can!
Have left several great reviews for Kaylie -- and will continue to do so because I love using her! My dog loves her, and she's super friendly, openly communicative, and I will book Kaylie any chance I get!

Information Kaylie A. would like to know about your pet
There are a few things that would be useful to know about a dog before I work with them. I'd start with certain basics such as age and the specific breed of the dog. Then, whether or not there's any allergies or medical conditions I need to be aware of. Another good thing to know is a little about the dog's past (Was he/she a rescue? Were they a foster dog at any point? Do they have a history of abuse and/or trauma? etc.). Any behavioral issue would be great to have a heads up on as well (Is your dog ball aggressive? Are they reactive at all to other dogs? Do they have any specific triggers (such as men with sunglasses or children)? etc.). Lastly, I'd like to know if there's any specific words the dogs are familiar with/trained to OTHER than the traditional "come, stay, sit, leave it, etc.".
A typical day
If I'm so lucky as to get the chance to meet and spend some time with your four-legged friend, I have a lot of fun ideas to keep your pooch engaged and having a blast! I know of a lot of dog-friendly parks, canyons, and beaches around the Los Angeles area that have gotten nothing but eager tail wags and slobbery smiles from past dogs I've worked with. Exploring the great outdoors is great for not only your dog's mental health, but physical health too! I would love to run around the neighborhood with your dog and get him/her nice and tired! After a high energy play session I am ALWAYS ready to give out some quality belly rubs and cuddles. Most of all, I'm flexible to whatever you and your dog are comfortable with doing and would want from me!
