Ratings and reviews
I’m so grateful! She accepted to walk my dog Blair last minute, and it truly saved me. Blair came back happy and well taken care of. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!
Lyla is the best! Lyla is an incredibly caring and responsible pet sitter. My dog adored her, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable hands. Highly recommend!
Lyla was great. Showed up on time, stayed the duration (up to 12 nights), did everything expected, including spending lots of quality time loving on Kona (our cat), and texted occasional pictures throughout our trips. Kona asked her to come back.

Schedule
I typically work M-F 9am-5pm with an hour long break around noon. This is somewhat flexible and can change based on needs. I’m available to care for pets before/after work as well as quick check-ins at noon depending on location. Weekends I am most available for pet care, with occasional part time volunteer responsibilities.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home: I live in a fairly spacious second floor apartment the space is kept tidy with the exception of occasional dog toys thrown around by my cocker spaniel. There is a public park and community garden a half block away which I use as yard space for potty breaks, fetch, chasing squirrels, etc. Your home: Please share with me what your preferences and comforts are. I can stay in-home and spend cozy time or take your pup on outings to the park, dog-friendly venues, etc.
Pets
A typical day
I like to spend time outdoors either on a river trail, dog park, community park, or a dog-friendly restaurant for social time. I cater to an individual dog’s activity needs, personality, and owner preferences. I also enjoy mellow couch time, playing enrichment games, and snuggling indoors.

- Let me know if your pup has any personalized needs! I prefer to sit adult dogs who are no longer needing super strict training routines- though I am experienced in housebreaking, leash training, and general behavioral training and can accommodate those needs if communicated ahead of time.
