About: Hello! My name is Kyla and since I was 5 years old my family and I have always welcomed needing pets to our home and family. I’ve also been frequently trusted with caring for neighbors’ and family pets during their times away. With this background I’ve been given the hands on experiences to understand and provide the needs of pets who are away from their home environment and would ensure that my home and care is a welcoming and comforting temporary replacement to what you provide to them. Looking forward to being your trusted sitter! I currently work from home full-time and am much of a homebody outside of that, giving me plenty of time to care for and play with your furry friends and provide frequent updates on their stays away from you. I live in an apartment but am very close to nearby parks and walking areas and would be sure to frequently give your pets their much needed doses of fresh-air and outdoor playtime. When in a client’s home, I am sure to treat it as my own and maintain the routine that they’re accustomed to.
“She’s amazing!!! Gives me lots of updates on my boy and sends lots of photos, she treats him like her own! ?”
“Brodie had another wonderful stay with Raye! As always, Raye was communicative and shared lots of updates throughout the day. Thank you, Raye! We are so appreciative of the peace of mind you provide.”
“Michaela's great! I contacted her the night before I needed a sitter for my 5 month old puppy, and she got back to me very quickly that she was available. She worked with my schedule and was a huge help in a pinch. I checked in with her a couple times during my pup's stay and she replied with updates and pictures. Thanks, Michaela!”
“We loved having Nahima care for Jasper. She was great at communicating with me about Jasper and was flexible with pick and drop off times. Jasper came back so happy! We’d be thrilled to have Nahima care for Jasper again!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love spending time with them—whether that’s going for walks, playing fetch, or just hanging out on the couch. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I’m all about making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I’ve also cared for cats, senior pets, and those with special needs. Whether your pup needs a long walk or your kitty just wants some company, I’ve got it covered. I work from home and have flexibility to ensure your pet is always cared for. Playtime, walks, etc they will be given proper attention and care. make sure each pet feels comfortable and safe from the moment they walk in. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible—feeding times, walks, play, naps—so it feels like a home away from home.
