Full-Time Love for your Furry BFF
Pet care experience
Your furry family member deserves a home-away-from-home where they'll receive endless attention, plenty of outdoor play, and expert care from a seasoned pet parent. With over 15 years of animal care experience, I understand that each dog has unique needs and personalities – from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I'm particularly attuned to providing specialized care, medication management, and the extra patience and attention that senior pets require, as I cared for my own aging lady for many years. Working from home means your pup will have constant companionship throughout the day, with plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and potty breaks whenever needed. No more rushing home from work or feeling guilty about leaving them alone! My spacious, fully-fenced backyard is a dog's dream playground, perfect for supervised exercise that matches your pet's energy level and abilities – whether that's playful puppy zoomies or gentle senior strolls. Being present 90% of the day allows me to closely monitor your pet's well-being, maintain their routine, and ensure they're happy, comfortable, and getting all the care they need. I'm experienced in administering medications, following special diets, and accommodating mobility issues. Your dog's comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I'll adapt activities and care to their specific needs and limitations. Your peace of mind is my priority – regular updates, photos, and videos will keep you connected with your furry friend throughout their stay. Choose a sitter who treats every dog like family, understands the unique needs of both puppies and seniors, and has the experience, space, and time to make their stay truly special.
Reviews
Kyle is a great resource for us. His home and yard are great for our dog. He is very communicative and sent us lots of photos of our dog while we are away. He was very attentive to our dogs needs and you can tell as soon as you meet him that he is great with animals. Would definitely recommend Kyle!
I left my pup with Kyle for a week long trip and the whole time felt assured that Tucker was in good hands and living his best life. Kyle took him on adventures, gave him snuggles and provided daily updates with pictures. He also has a fenced in backyard where my dog had the most fun laying in the sun! Defs would book with Kyle again!
Kyle was amazing! He took great care of my dog and sent many updates. I was actually worried my dog wouldn’t want to come home. I’ll absolutely be using Kyle in the future.
Kyle is fantastic with dogs. He’s reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. I always feel totally comfortable leaving my dog in his care because I know they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who treats your dog like their own, I highly recommend Kyle.
