Pet care experience

Reactive Dog Friendly

Hi, I’m Kaylyn! 🐾 I specialize in walking large and reactive dogs and making sure they feel safe, structured, and well cared for on every walk. I’m a dog mom to two German Shepherds, including a large reactive male—so I’m very experienced with pulling, reactivity, and managing dogs in real-world situations. I’m confident handling all sizes, breeds, and behavior levels. I also have hands-on experience with: - Puppies (raising and early care) - Dogs with medical needs (medications, subcutaneous fluids, strict routines)

Kaylyn took wonderful care of our two Yorkies, Sasha and Malia, while we were away on a short vacation. She was professional, punctual, and very easy to work with. The girls absolutely loved her, and we had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will definitely be booking Kaylyn again!

Kaylyn was fantastic! She was very communicative and ensured Chloe was enjoying her stay while getting in a good mix of cuddles and exercise. I cannot recommend her enough to take care of your fur babies!

Kaylyn is very experienced with dogs and understands how to manage different temperaments. She’s interacted with my dog many times and always makes sure all dogs are safe and comfortable, especially during play. She’s responsible, patient, and genuinely cares about the dogs she’s watching. I highly recommend her.

I’ve seen firsthand how responsible and caring she is with dogs. She has taken care of my German Shepherd and approaches everything with a calm, soothing presence that dogs naturally respond to. What stands out most is how structured and consistent she is. She follows a routine with her own dogs and brings that same level of attention and reliability when caring for others. She understands that dogs thrive on consistency, and she takes that seriously. Kaylyn is dependable, attentive, and genuinely cares about the well-being of every dog she’s around. I trust her completely with my own dog, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with patience and care.
