Attentive and fun!

Pet care experience

From a young age I've had a big appreciation for dogs, and have taken care of many in the past. I was lucky enough to have found my animal companion six years ago, his name is Dali and he is a very mellow and loving boy that tends to like everyone. Under my care, your dog is assured to have their needs met. I provide a 5 star service and I am not afraid to go the extra mile to make sure your dog is happy. Currently, I am a preschool teacher working Monday - Thursday from 8am to 5:30pm, If I am ever away, my partner Ian will be looking after your dogs and making sure they are cared for 100% of the time since he does work from home. I have recently moved into an apartment within the last year and no longer have a fenced-in yard. I regularly take my dog and the dogs I am dog sitting on multiple walks throughout the day. We also live a few blocks away from Irving Park and go there often. Please feel free to send me a message regarding any question you may have, I am always willing to do meet and greets. Thank you for reading! Schedule : Weekends work best for me to dog sit at my home but I can accommodate to dogs that may be well adjusted while I am gone. Safety, trust & environment : In my home I make sure your dog feels comfortable and content as much as possible. I can do most requests that may help your dog feel better.

Kenya is an amazing dog sitter! We always feel comfortable and confident that Max is in good hands when we leave him with Kenya. She keeps us informed with pictures and updates and Max always seems to be in great spirits when we pick him up!

Kenya is so kind and caring. Our pups loved staying with her, Dali, and Ian. We received such thoughtful photos of the dogs during the day. She also sent us updates, and questions when needed.

My dog stayed with Kenya for a week and he had a great time! Kenya was very responsive and easy to work with.

Kenya watched Charlie for me over the holiday weekend earlier this year while I took a mini vacation out of town! Charlie had the best time with her and the other dogs. She kept me looped in the whole time and let me know how he was doing as by sending me pictures. She took him on long walks and treated him like part of the family. She was super flexible too! Charlie had come down with an eye infection right before my trip and she was more than willing to help keep up his antibiotic regime while I was gone! If I can ever have to go out of town again, I will definitely go back to Kenya!

Information Kenya L. would like to know about your pet

Anything you may think I should know? Smaller dog breeds are preferred in my home but will make exceptions for well behaved bigger dogs. No females in heat. Sleeping Accommodations : How does your dog prefer to sleep at night? Do you play soft sounds for him/her to sleep. Does he/her have a bed at home they sleep on? Be sure to bring it so they will be comfortable. Do they sleep in the room with you?

A typical day

When your dog is under my supervision you can be rest assured that they will get the proper amount of exercise through activities such as walking / hikes / dog parks. Irving Park is also very conveniently located a couple blocks away. Please be sure to let me know your about your dog's’ behavior when at a dog park. Is your dog trustworthy while off leash? Or does he tend to bolt? Most of the time dogs will be kept on leashes but if your dog is an exception. Be sure to let me know!
