“Kayla was such a great cat sitter! I was gone for two weeks and she checked in on my Louie every other day (and even watered my plants!). My cat is shy when I’m not around and Kayla was so kind with my Louie and gave her treats and played with her (even though my cat was being very antisocial).

About: Hi, Matt here. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. What sets me apart is that I understand dog behavior, routines, and needs from real, hands-on experience—not just from reading about it. I’m calm, reliable, and confident with dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they’re high-energy and need exercise or more laid-back and just want companionship. I pay close attention to detail, follow instructions closely, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. My goal is always to treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and make sure owners have complete peace of mind. I’m currently a full-time teacher and will have open availability in the summer time to care for your pets! During the school year I am also available after 3:30 PM on weekdays for any walks, drop ins, etc. I have two dogs on my own and I am focused on safety! Pets will always be secure with a leash while on walks and kept away from other animals walking by. If being let out in the yard I always double check that the fence is secured, and there are no areas where dogs can escape.
