Energetic Pet Sitter

Hi, I’m Keyla! I live in Hillsborough County and work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for pets in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. Since moving to Tampa in 2020, I’ve had the chance to pet sit, board, and house sit for some wonderful animals. I grew up on a farm in Brazil, always surrounded by dogs and all kinds of pets, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. My family has a big love for animals, and that’s a value I bring into every pet I look after. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I also like to send photos and update check-ins, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. -Boarding: Currently accepting small pets only. Boarding is available on Friday evenings, Saturdays (all day), and Sundays (all day), so your pet will always have company and care during their stay. -Pet Daycare / Dog Walking: Not accepting new clients at this time. -House Sitting: I’ll take care of both your pet and your home, cleaning up after myself and your pet while following all of your instructions and house rules. A little extra about me Back in Brazil, I volunteered at an animal shelter, helping to feed and comfort animals in need. Caring for pets has always been close to my heart, and I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. Thank you for visiting my profile! If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message.

Keyla took great care of our dog Charlie while we went out for an appointment. She is very friendly and we would trust her to watch our dog again! She even sent pictures so we could check in on how Charlie was doing since it was our first time leaving him.

Pets

A typical day

If your dog is allowed, I love taking them to the dog park for some fun social time and exercise. I also have pet puzzles at my house, which are great for their mental stimulation and I also enjoy watching pets trying to figure out how to get their treats out of the puzzles. For cats, I love engaging them with interactive toys, laser pointers, or feather wands, and of course, cuddling if they enjoy it. I always try to match activities to each pet's personality and energy level to make sure they’re happy and comfortable.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
Non-neutered males accepted, spayed females only

I have a couple of basic questions that I always ask before booking a stay. That way I can make sure to provide your pet the best experience possible.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
