Your Pet’s New Best Friend!

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 5 years. I have pet sat for many friends and neighbors over the years. I have kennel experience and I also have 2 dogs and a cat of my own. I will provide exceptional care including walks, feedings, play time, and potty breaks.

Amazing sitter! Very communicative and prompt! Took care of my 2 crazy babies all weekend and they loved her!

Layla was great. She sent photos and updates! My somewhat high maintenance pups were well taken care of and everything was exactly as we left it. We’ll definitely use her again!

I highly recommend Layla Wood as a pet sitter and dog walker on Rover. She is incredibly responsible, compassionate, and truly loves animals. I’ve seen firsthand how attentive and gentle she is with pets of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing in the yard, or just giving a nervous pup some extra snuggles, she goes the extra mile to make sure animals feel safe, happy, and loved. She’s dependable, follows instructions carefully, and communicates clearly—qualities that give any pet parent peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my own pets in her care, and I know others will feel the same.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. I prefer dogs that aren’t people or dog aggressive.
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.
