Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, my main goal is to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s regular schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship so they don’t feel stressed while their owner is away. I also keep the home clean and secure and provide updates so owners know their pets are doing well. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm and safe environment where they can relax and feel at home. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I always follow any specific instructions from the owner regarding feeding, medications, or special needs. Every pet has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to understand what makes them comfortable and happy.

Information Kyle E. would like to know about your pet

I like to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs ahead of time. This includes feeding schedules, exercise habits, energy level, and how they typically behave around new people or other animals. It’s also important to know about any medical needs, medications, or allergies, as well as any triggers or behaviors to watch for. The more I understand upfront, the better I can make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

A typical day

I focus on making pets feel comfortable and at ease while their owners are away. I spend time getting to know their routine and personality, whether that means calm companionship, light play, or regular walks. I enjoy building trust with each pet so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for in their home environment.

Treating Your Pets Like Family

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Kyle, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with both cats and dogs and have spent years helping family and friends take care of their pets whenever they needed a sitter or someone to stop by and check in. Animals have always seemed comfortable around me, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or just giving them some attention and company, I’m happy to make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m comfortable with both cats and dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully so your pet stays happy and stress-free. If you’re looking for someone dependable who will treat your pet like family, I’d love to help!

Kyle was reliable, a great communicator and patient with our little dog who can be stubborn on his walks! I definitely recommend him!

I had a wonderful experience with Kyle and would absolutely book drop-ins with him again. He was communicative, reliable, and attentive, and provided thoughtful updates while I was away. He has great energy and my baby girl took to him quickly - she seemed comfortable and relaxed from the start. It was clear he genuinely cared about making her feel safe and well cared for. I came home to a happy kitty and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. 10/10 recommend Kyle!

Kyle was awesome! He took great care of our old girl and followed all instructions. He sent updates with pics and was prompt to respond throughout our trip. Our dog was completely at ease and definitely got some solid walks in too which was great. We will use Kyle again and recommend him!
