Pet care experience

Loving care when you can’t be there

Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime to sweet senior pets who require extra patience and gentle attention. I tailor my care to match each pet’s individual needs. My calm, intuitive energy and strong attention to detail allow me to connect thoughtfully with animals. I’m experienced with medication schedules, consistent feeding routines, and creating enrichment through long walks, play, or light training sessions. Every pet I care for is treated with love, safety, and respect. Your pet’s comfort and happiness always come first, and I care for them like they’re my own.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m walking your dog or staying in your home, your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your routines closely, keep a calm and consistent energy, and always treat your space and your pet with care and respect. On walks, I stay alert to the environment, avoid unsafe or crowded areas, and never walk pets off-leash unless in a fully enclosed space with your permission. I pay close attention to your dog’s body language and energy level to make sure they feel relaxed and happy throughout our time together. During house sitting, I maintain a peaceful, pet-focused environment. I make sure your pet sticks to their usual routine—whether it’s feeding times, medications, or favorite spots to nap and play. I keep your home clean and secure, and always keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you know your pet is safe, loved, and never alone. Building trust with you and your pet matters to me. I keep things calm, consistent, and always tuned into what your pet needs. Whether I’m in your home or out on a walk, I make sure they feel safe, cared for, and totally comfortable.

I can’t recommend her enough! She has amazing communication and always keeps me updated, which gives me so much peace of mind. She goes above and beyond—she’s cleaned up my dog’s accidents without hesitation and even takes my dog out longer than requested just to make sure they were happy and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and that means everything to me. Highly recommend! 🐾

Kya was awesome! We were visiting for the football game and needed someone to watch our two golden retrievers while we attend the game. Kya went out of her way to meet us at our tailgating spot and took wonderful care of our dogs for the night. I would highly recommend Kya for any of your dog sitting needs!

Kya was great with our fur baby. Would recommend for dog sitting and can’t wait to hire her again!

I had to cancel her service the first day & have a family member come over at 9:30 pm. she did not follow care instructions & left my dog unattended longer than the specified time. He has separation anxiety & this was stressed to her on more than one occasion I have a Ring camera & was able to monitor when she came & left. What a stressful situation for what was supposed to be a weekend away

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I’m an early riser, so I’m up and ready to take care of pets first thing. Working remotely, allows me to stay available throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, check-ins, or just being a calm presence in the house, I have the flexibility to give pets the attention they need without rushing or distractions.

It’s really helpful to know your pet’s daily routine, energy level, and any special needs they might have. I also like to know how they do around other animals, what commands they respond to, and if there’s anything that makes them anxious or uncomfortable. Details like food preferences, favorite toys, or quirky habits help me give them the best care possible.
