Availability

I’m an active duty military member, but I work in a 24hr shop so my schedule shifts a lot. However, that is no issue for me as long as I have a heads up from my clients! I will work with them to create a schedule that best suits both me and the animals! Your animal is now a priority of mine(:

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 6” vinyl privacy fence with a very large backyard. I have 3 dogs of my own and can accommodate some animals in my home. However, I will need to have your animals formally meet mine before making that decision so that we don’t put anyone in harms way. I will also request an updated shot record for any animals entering my home and will provide you with the same(:

Information Kyla T. would like to know about your pet

I like to have a heads up of any seniors or specials needs animals ahead of time so I can be better aware of how to approach them, how to administer medications if that’s a need be, etc. Same deal with puppies and whether they’re fully potty trained or not, their likes and dislikes, and what are a few things I can work with them on. I like to engage with the animals rather than just “let them eat and potty”. I like to build their trust with me, I like to practice their commands with them and sometimes even start a new one! It’s simple yet makes such an impact on them!

A typical day

I love getting the animals going and running out energy! Mind puzzles are fun with treats, it allows them to get their sniffer going! I’m a huge fan of long walks whether that be at a park or through a neighborhood. Playing fetch or tugging on a rope is another great way to exercise a dog that I find highly entertaining to not only myself, but also the dogs. Cats are mostly simple creatures, most just want affection and pets, but it’s not rare to find cats who like to play as well! I’m up for it all.

Pets

Bringing joy to every paw&whisker!

Pet care experience

I can do it all from big breeds, to small breeds; from happy breeds, to sad breeds. I’ve also got experience in tending to aggressive animals or animals who react out of fear so don’t worry! Growing up, I had an aggressive pup who people refused to come around and it made things hard on me, I want to give ALL pet parents a chance to feel safe knowing their aggressive or reactive dog is in good hands. I know the do’s and the don’t’s! Animals are a passion and if I could have every animal in the world, I would! Give me a shot to take care of your baby and you won’t regret it!

Kyla was so good with Nila and took excellent care of Nila. She sent pictures and kept us updated. I loved that she had 3 dogs so Nila can have some friends to play with.

Highly recommend Kyla! She responded to my last minute request quickly and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Good communication and very friendly!

Kyla did great with my Boston terrier while we went on vacation! She gave updates, sent a video, etc. I could tell my boy had a great time with her. Definitely using her again!
