About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized care for each pup I look after. I take the time to get to know your dog’s unique needs, routines, and quirks, ensuring they feel right at home. I offer regular photo and video updates, so you never have to worry about how your pet is doing while you’re away. With a safe, cozy home and a focus on fun and comfort, your dog will feel like part of the family. Whether it’s a walk, a play session, or snuggle time, I tailor everything to your pet’s preferences! I am working from home and part time, so my schedule is flexible as I make my own schedule. I will tailor my schedule to yours. In My Home: I offer a safe, cozy environment with plenty of space for your pet to feel comfortable. While my large yard isn’t fenced in, I ensure that outdoor time is always supervised and safe. Inside, my two shy cats provide gentle company for pets who enjoy calm, quiet companionship. I offer a relaxed and secure atmosphere where pets can roam freely, rest, or have quiet time as they need. I also provide lots of space for your pet to retreat to if they prefer solitude. Whether it’s a play session, a nap in a cozy spot, or simply some peaceful downtime, your pet will always feel at ease. In Your Home: When I care for your pet in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their routine and comfort. I offer drop-in visits to feed, play, and clean up, or take your dog for a walk to ensure they get the exercise and fresh air they need. I understand the importance of a pet’s familiar surroundings, so I make sure they feel safe and secure in their own space. Whether it’s a walk, a play session, or just some cuddle time, I’m here to provide the attention your pet needs while keeping you updated with photos and messages.

Dahlgren, IL, 62828

About: I have had dogs for most of my life and always loved all animals. I work remotely so I am almost always home with my own pets. I work from home, so rather than keeping a strict schedule, I usually follow my dogs’ lead. They generally let me know when they need to go outside/come inside, eat, play, etc. We do at least two feedings a day. Every animal I’ve ever had has had their own unique personality with unique needs. Right now I have big, friendly dogs, but before them I had a grumpy old Yorkie with epilepsy/special needs. I will tailor my care to whatever will be best for your pet(s).

I had an amazing experience with her taking care of my pets! I have two chihuahuas, one is 9 years old and the other is 3, and she took such amazing care of both of them. Kyla has watched my pets while I have to ran long time consuming errands. She has the best patience, love, and support for my little ones. I usually don’t trust many people with my animals, but I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!
