Hovis, Kayla

Kayla H.

Apex Dog Walker & Pet Sitter

Kayla has been a resident of Apex since 2021 and has loved every second of it. As a former “Navy Brat”, she’s had the opportunity to live in many different places (from the midwestern USA to a desert island in the middle east); however, nowhere has felt more like home than North Carolina.

Her lifelong dream has been to work with animals and, after a decade of customer service jobs, she finally took the plunge to fulfill it. She worked in management at a pet resort for a couple of years before pivoting towards more of a clinical role in animal care; at present, she is a Veterinary Assistant at Trinity Animal Hospital while she works towards a degree in Veterinary Medical Technology at Central Carolina. She decided to join Peak City Puppy to balance the medical side with some laid-back, one-on-one pet care (and also to drown in doggy kisses in her free time).

When she’s not at school or work, she loves to go on hikes with her boyfriend or kickbox with friends whenever possible. On her lazier days, she enjoys relaxing at home with her cats while working on digital art.

Kayla joined the team in 2022.

Hey yall, my name is Karen and I’m originally from Apex, which is where I have lived my whole life. I have always enjoyed having a dog in my household as I grew up!

Apex Dog Walker / In home boarding

Rita has been living in Apex since 2008. She has always loved animals and can not envision a life without them.

After losing her beloved dogs Tammy and Dottie she ventured into a new endeavor and started fostering with Peak Lab Rescue in 2018. Having taken care of over a hundred dogs in need, she adopted her own rescue Riley in 2020. Teaching her own dog came as second nature, after the multitude of experience gained from fostering predominantly puppies.

In her spare time she enjoys being creative, painting in either acrylic or oil, and hand building her own pottery. Rita loves to be outside and likes hiking, gardening, and of course walking her dog Riley.

Jenny C - In home boarding

Jenny C.

In home boarding

I moved to North Carolina when I was 10 and have lived all over Wake County. I recently moved to New Hill with my husband, Tom, and my two wonderful kids, Aileen and Jonah. We have three pets: Elsa the dog, Anna the cat, and Sparkles, whom we affectionately call “Robin Sparkles.”

While we’d love to add another pup to our family, we’ve decided to hold off until our toddler is older. We’d love to spoil your furbaby while you’re away and treat them as a member of our family.

I’m a project manager for a local tech company. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to work from home full-time. We value experiences and memories over things, so when we’re not working or going to school, you can often find my family and me exploring state and National Parks. Elsa usually comes along! Plus, nothing makes the cats happier than a quiet house now and again.
