Pet care experience

I've got puppy love for days <3

As a professional dog sitter for the past 3 years, I’ve come to learn that this isn’t just a job… this is meaningful, personal and caretaking work. The dogs I meet are instantly like family to me, and I pride myself on loving, respecting and being there for them just the same. They deserve a safe person and a safe space to be around, especially while their owners are away. What makes me different is the level of integrity that I bring into all my dog sittings, which is to ensure that all the puppies in my care feel at ease, happy and provided for. I have worked with all kinds of breeds and temperaments, and I am patient and understanding with all kinds of behaviors and personalities. Each dog is different, and they should be approached and treated like such. I possess empathy, calm and skilled communication. Getting to be a dog sitter is all about play, gentleness, joy and most importantly: dedication to showing up for these loving, and unconditional animals. I look forward to working with you and bonding with your sweet pups! :)

Safety, trust & environment

When staying at your home, it’s important that I follow the same daily and nightly routines you have for your dogs. I want them to feel grounded and know what to expect. I will be their buddy, and give them tons of cuddles and attention (if they want that). I know when the parents are gone that’s when they need attention the most, so I do my best to be home with them as much as possible. I also am sure to take care of your place by keeping it clean and tidy, for when you return. My reviews will also speak for themselves on this one :)

We had a great experience having Kylene watch our dogs at our campsite while we were absent for the day. This was an unusual request/booking - but Kylene was incredibly flexible and we trusted her right away. She was super communicative and asked a variety of questions I didn't even consider. Would definitely book again!

First time using Rover for my 2 girls, and Kylene was very patient and loving towards them. They were very well taken care of, and I will definitely be rebooking in the near future!

Kylene did a great job dog sitting for Lyla in my home. She made sure Lyla got plenty of walks and play time while I was away. When I came home Lyla was relaxed and happy, and the house looked great!

We were very happy with Kylene services. She stayed in our home while we were away but left everything nice and tidy when she left. Our dog Daisy is an easy dog to take care of, but she asked lots of questions to make sure Daisy was getting the care we wanted for her. Kylene was also very responsive in responding to any questions we had and was very easy to work with. We would definitely use her again if the need arises! Thank you Kylene

Kylene did an amazing job with our pup, Pike. She was extremely communicative and met with us before to see how things went before watching our dog and ask & answer any questions. Would absolutely recommend her to stay with your fur baby while you are gone!

Schedule

I work as a massage therapist 3-4 days per week, and I manage my calendar around dog sittings. I'm never gone longer than 3-4 hours, so that I can get back to your puppies as soon as possible. I don't like leaving them wondering where I am, I want them feeling safe and secure.

Kylene can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Please inform me of your dog’s routine and personality. How are they with strangers, other animals, and being left alone while I go run errands? I’ll need to know about feeding, sleeping, and morning routines, as well as if they take medications/vitamins/treats. If needed, can they ride in the car? And how do they do on walks/outside time? All of these questions are very important to me as I am completely responsible for your dog while you are away. Please remember that they may behave differently with me than they do with you.
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.
