About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I currently have four cats (two I’ve raised for over 3 years) and two dogs — one who’s been with me for 5 years and is now a senior with different needs, and another I’ve had for 2 years. Over the years, I’ve helped groom and care for pets belonging to friends and family — including baths, brushing, light nail care, and general pet hygiene. I also have experience with puppies, helping young dogs learn basic routines and good habits with patience and positive reinforcement. I understand how important it is to keep pets on a consistent diet and exercise schedule, and I always prioritize their comfort, emotional well-being, and safety. Whether I’m walking, feeding, or just hanging out with your pet, I care for them like they’re my own. I have the flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care every day after 2:30 PM. This gives me plenty of time to focus on your pet’s needs—whether it’s feeding, exercise, grooming, or simply spending quality time together. I’m dedicated to maintaining a consistent routine, so your pet will receive regular care and attention without feeling rushed. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels happy and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, safe, and loving environment where each animal feels comfortable and well-attended. I follow their specific routines for feeding, exercise, and play, ensuring they get plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and household rules, maintaining consistency with their usual schedules for feeding, walks, and rest. I make sure to keep the home secure and clean, and I provide updates to the owner so they feel confident their pet is well cared for. In both settings, I prioritize the pet’s well-being, comfort, and happiness, treating each one like family.

Kayla M.
“I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Kayla Morrow as a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Kayla possesses a deep, genuine love for all of God’s creatures, and her life is a testament to her dedication to animal care and respect for nature. Throughout the years, Kayla has cared for a wide variety of animals, including farm animals and exotic pets. She has raised goats, chickens, ducks, and even pheasants, demonstrating her ability to manage the diverse needs of different species. Her experience also extends to reptiles—she has owned geckos, an albino boa, a rattlesnake, a copperhead, and several other reptiles. This breadth of experience speaks volumes about her confidence, knowledge, and calm demeanor around animals of all kinds. Kayla’s compassion doesn’t end at her home. She’s the kind of person who will stop her car in the middle of the road to rescue a turtle or gently guide a snake to safety. Her respect for life, no matter how small or misunderstood, truly sets her apart. In short, Kayla Morrow is trustworthy, knowledgeable, and extraordinarily kind-hearted. Anyone entrusting their animals to her care can rest easy knowing they are in loving, capable hands.”

“Michelle is AMAZING! I seriously can’t say enough good things. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals and knows how to handle them with patience and care. My dog can be a little nervous around new people, but he warmed up to Michelle immediately. She gave me regular updates, sent the cutest pics, and followed all my care instructions perfectly. When I picked him up, he was calm, clean, and clearly well loved like he had a little vacation of his own. I also really appreciated how professional and down to earth she was. You can just feel that she takes this seriously and treats your pet like family. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 10/10. Highly recommend. 🐾”
Amanda W.
“Amanda is great with my three dogs. She does overnights at my house and I can completely trust her with my pets in my home. She is the sweetest to my fur babies and she is so sweet to send me updates and pictures while I’m away. Amanda also cleans during her stay so that I come home to a clean home. There isn’t enough room for me to write all the things I love about her. But definitely give her a shot! She’s amazing!🫶🏼🤟🏼”
