Your Dog’s New Best Friend

Hi! I’m a speech-language pathologist and lifelong dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending my free time caring for animals. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your dog, and I treat every dog I watch like they’re part of the family. I have experience with dogs of all different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible — whether that means walks, playtime, lots of cuddles, medication, specific feeding schedules, or just having someone nearby to keep them company. One of the biggest perks of staying with us is that your dog will get a lot of attention and very little time alone! I work from home every Friday, and my boyfriend currently works from home full-time with a very flexible schedule. This means he is able to take dogs outside frequently throughout the day for potty breaks, playtime, and fresh air rather than having them wait for a set schedule. We absolutely love having dogs around and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away. I’m also very communicative and happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your dog is being well cared for.

Dog Walking • Jul 31, 2025

Kylie was great with my energetic one year old dog. She was punctual and shared great photos following the visit. She is clearly a dog lover and would book again!

Kylie was so great with our dog Maisey! She was so attentive and Maisey with great care and sent lots of updates to us via text! We would highly recommend Kylie to any future people that might need a dog sitter and look foward to using her again!!!

Kylie is an incredible dog walker and our pups absolutely adore her! She’s reliable, friendly, and always shows up with a smile and lots of energy. Our dogs get so excited when they see her—they know they’re in for a fun and safe walk. Kylie takes the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs, and she treats them with so much care and attention. We feel completely at ease knowing our dogs are in such good hands. She's truly the best!

Kylie was an absolutely amazing dog sitter! She took such great care of our two dogs, treating them like her own and making sure they felt safe, loved, and entertained the whole time we were away. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us total peace of mind. Our dogs can be a bit high-maintenance, but Kylie handled their routines and quirks with patience and kindness. We came home to two very happy pups and a spotless house. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch them again!

Schedule

As a full-time speech therapist, I work standard weekday hours and work from home on Fridays. My boyfriend currently works from home full-time with a very flexible schedule, so someone is home with your pet throughout the day and able to provide frequent potty breaks, attention, playtime, and companionship. Between the two of us, we’re able to make sure your pet gets plenty of love and activity throughout their stay. I’m also available for morning and evening walks, and we have lots of flexibility on weekends!

Safety, trust & environment

I am a very responsible and caring person, your pet will be under very good care with me! I am always down to give my 100 percent attention to a pet!

A typical day

Living in Stamford, I’m lucky to be surrounded by great parks and walking spots—perfect for keeping pups happy and active! While I don’t have a yard, I live close to places like Cove Island Park, Mianus River Park, and Harbor Point, where I love taking dogs for walks, sniffing adventures, and playtime. Whether your pup loves socializing at the dog park, exploring nature trails, or just strolling through quiet neighborhoods, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and fun during our time together!

I love all animals big, small, calm, and energetic! I have two dogs of my own and spend every minute I’m home with my family snuggling, playing fetch, and being with them.
