Experienced, Caring, Pet-sitter

Pet care experience

I've been around animals since birth. I have been independently caring for animals such as dogs and cats since I started high school. Family, friends, and clients have trusted me to walk, feed, transport and house their fur-babies over the years.

Shyla went above and beyond when caring for our 2 cats as well as our fish. She kept us informed throughout the week and sent over photo updates. At the end of the week, she called to go over everything and to let us know she was leaving. Would definitely trust her to care for them in the future!

Shyla has become my go-to person for pet care when I am out of town. My dogs adore her, and even my shy cat greets her when she comes in. It's a relief not to have any worry about my home and my pets when I travel. She replies promptly and reaches out with any unexpected issues, and I am always confident that she will be able to handle any emergency. Highly recommended.

Information Shyla W. would like to know about your pet

I love how every dog is unique each one has a special way of expressing itself. So, I like to know what cues and quirk your pup has. If the have a special potty dance of whine when they need belly rubs. I also like to know if they has any sensitives to noises or certain moments.

A typical day

There is a large park that I like to walk close to the river. Even without a fenced in yard I have a long line in my shaded back yard for the dogs to play in. I love playing fetch and tug of war with dogs. Also I love exercising their brains with fun training sessions with there favorite treats.

I am a full-time worker but my hours are flexible and I am free on weekends. I already go on two walks a day with my sociable dog and I am in a good routine with my animals.
