I have had a variety of pets with different demeanors. I have had a deaf dog, territorial dogs, anxious dogs, and more. I understand crate training and e-collar use, and am okay dealing with big pullers or jumpers.

Layla was the best house and dog sitter ever for our two pups! She provided lots of photos and updates for us, and our dogs absolutely love her!

Layla was great with Cocoa. She communicated on how Cocoa was doing, sent update photos, and was respectful during her time in our home. She gave Cocoa lots of walks, cuddles, and playtime.

Layla is a responsible person, who loves animals and is dedicated to their well being. She has taken care of not just dogs and cats, but chickens and turkeys, sheep and lambs, goats, donkeys and horses. She's always had big dogs too. So she is incredibly comfortable and capable with any animals! Layla is also a person that will always show up to do what she says. She would be great taking care of people's pets!!

I cannot recommend Layla highly enough! I have known Layla most of her life. It has always been clear she has a deep and genuine love for animals. My pets have always taken to her immediately. She immediately gets down on their level and shows them love. What really stood out was her professionalism and respect for all of my care instructions. She took the time to understand each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and quirks, and followed everything to the letter. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in such thoughtful, capable hands. Throughout her time sitting, she sent regular updates and photos, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your animals as much as you do, Layla, is the one. She goes above and beyond, and I will absolutely be using her services again in the future. ⸻ Let me know if you’d like it to be more casual, funny, or emotional — happy to tailor it!

Schedule

I am currently a student at UNCW, and I am free almost every afternoon of the week. I am currently away from home and unable to have pets, so any pet will get tons of attention.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Layla can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your pet has any behavioral issues or special needs that need to be taken care of. I am most comfortable with bigger dogs, over 60lbs, but have taken care of smaller pets as well.
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.
