About: I've been a dog and cat lover ever since I can remember. When I was little I wanted to be a veterinarian, so when I was old enough I would volunteer at shelters and at the local veterinary clinic every chance I got. Family members and friends of my family would have me watch their dog or cat every now and then and I'd always go above and beyond for them! I'm currently not working so I will be home most of the time during the week. My 12 year old daughter is very active in taking care of our puppy, Lucie, so I'm certain she would be a helping hand in taking care of any other pets that come into our home for care. I have a huge fenced in yard with plenty of room for your pups to run some energy off in, decorated with more than a dozen toys, sticks and tennis balls to keep them occupied for hours on end. I am also experienced with kennels as well, but I do not currently have any at my house so that would have to be provided by you if that's what you prefer. I have lots of experience with animals that have separation anxiety, too. Also, I do have a female chestnut colored Labrador retriever who is just under a year old and still very much has that puppy mentality and is extremely energetic.

Kayla M.
“Five Stars All the Way for Kayla! Kayla is truly a gem of a pet sitter. From the moment we met her, it was clear how deeply she cares for animals of all kinds. She’s not only incredibly warm and kind but also exceptionally trustworthy and reliable — the kind of person you can confidently leave your beloved pets with, knowing they’ll be in the best hands. Our pets absolutely adore her! She doesn’t just feed and check in — she genuinely engages with them, spending quality time playing and bonding with each one. It’s easy to see that this isn’t just a job for Kayla — it’s a passion. One of the things that really sets her apart is her incredible knowledge and experience with reptiles. Not only is she comfortable around them, but she also holds a venomous snake handling certificate — a rare and impressive qualification that shows her commitment and skill. We’ve never felt more at ease leaving our reptiles in someone’s care. Whether you have a dog, cat, gecko, or a cobra, Kayla is the one to call. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
