Pet care experience
Loving dog mama!
I've had dogs in my family my whole life, and I’ve been blessed with my very own pup, a Maltese-Bichon mix named Zoro. He sadly passed away last year from chronic kidney disease but your dog will get the same love and affection I gave to my own (lots of snuggles and kisses!). I live with my partner who has a sweet and lazy golden doodle named Ladybird. My apartment is dog-friendly, so pets are always allowed on furniture and crating is not necessary. My job is flexible (I'm often able to work from home) so if your dog needs more than three walks/extra attention that can be arranged. I'm comfortable with older dogs and giving oral medications.

Ratings and reviews
Lyla was great watching our dog. She was very attentive, communicated often, and our dog had a great time spending the day with her.

Wonderful sitter! Lyla truly went out of her way to ensure my 15-year-old, always-anxious Bichon mix felt safe and at home. Highly recommend!

Lyla was great!

Lyla is a great dog sitter! My dog has stayed with her and Zorro many times he always comes home happy and calm. Thanks Lyla

Lyla was great with my dog Panko! She took him on great walks and sent me regular updates and pictures. I highly recommend trusting your pup with Lyla!

Lyla was great and so accommodating - I got Lucy back smiling and tail-wagging! ☺️

Schedule
I mostly work remotely with half days in the office a few times a week, but my schedule is overall super flexible and I’m also a morning person so good with early AM drop offs if needed!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I only watch one dog at a time, so your pet will get a ton of attention and you can ensure they’re getting lots of long or frequent walks depending on the weather, with many snuggles, playtime, and treats.
Pets
A typical day
Your dog will get plenty of exercise and play with me! I love taking the dogs to various dog parks (Shaw, Shirlington) for active playtime and will make sure your precious pet is never bored.

- I would love to know how your dog interacts with people/other dogs. Any quirks (likes/dislikes) would also be good to know so I can give your dog the best care possible.
