About Skyla P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We are all about prioritizing pet health, safety and comfortability around here. I am happy to adjust the plan as needed to ensure your fuzzy friend has a great time while under my care, whether on a walk or during an in-home care visit. Any excursions, whether a day hike or a dog park trip, will be planned and discussed with the owner in advance! I drive a Subaru Crosstrek with a doggy seat belt and hammock in the back seat for transportation safety when needed.
Information Skyla P. would like to know about your pet
Aside from basic medical and personal information (allergens, dislikes, etc), I like to know the personality and characteristics of the animal prior to sitting them. A basic description or information on the dog or cat can say a lot in a small amount of words. This can be something small like their favorite toy, to larger aspects of the animal like what frightens them. I do not have any specific breed preferences, and I have been able to handle large dogs before, but please keep in mind I am a 5'6 and can only hold back so much weight!
A typical day
I like to walk dogs through locations that provide something exciting for both of us! This could range from a trip to the University to people watch or a loop through the trails at Mt Pisgah. Depending on the dog's personality and situation, I arrange our time together around what will have them sleeping good at night but not too overwhelmed or stressed out.

Pet care experience
I have had dogs, cats, fish, lizards (and more!) in the home with me since childhood and have always been a huge lover of animals, including my two "krakens" (kittens) that I have currently that are the highlight of my days. I am a firm believer in our pets being cherished members of our family, and we should care for them as such! Beyond the fuzzy friends I have in my own house, I have loved on and cared for animals for 10+ years for family, friends and neighbors, with most experience relating to dog walking, in-house pet sitting and a specialization in senior animal care. I've had both elderly dogs and cats in my care as lifelong pets, as well as specializing care for folks with senior animals in regards to medication, assistance with transportation, and any other special needs necessary for proper care. Lastly, I am an adventurer through and through, and I also enjoy taking pets who enjoy the great outdoors on safe, preplanned and thoroughly supervised excursions with me. Whether that be a day hike, a scenic drive or summertime dip in a river -- it's always a blast!

Reviews
Skyla was an absolutely wonderful canine caregiver. She adapted to our dog’s schedule, sent us regular updates and photos, and even deftly navigated through a couple of unexpected curveballs that popped up. We knew our pups were happy and being well-cared for, so that was one fewer thing we had to worry about while we were out of town. We would not hesitate to use Skyla again for future trips!
5 star stay as always! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We love Skyla, and our kitties love her too. We always have peace of mind knowing they’re in such great hands while we’re away. She has done drop ins for us multiple times, and every experience has been amazing. We’re so grateful to have found her! 🐈🐈⬛
Our kitties LOVE Skyla! It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re well taken care of while we’re away. She even helped administer daily medication to one of our cats, which was such a huge help. I also really appreciate her detailed updates and all the photos she sends! 🩷🩷🩷
Skyla is our person!! We’ve booked dozens of drop in visits this past year for our special needs kitties and she is just the best. So caring, reliable, responsive, reassuring, flexible (when we’ve had some glitches like stuck over night at the airport), and extremely trustworthy. Her pics are always so cute and the reports crack me up. Blaze and Flash absolutely adore her. We just appreciate you so much, Skyla!!
