Former Housekeeper Sues Kylie Jenner, Alleging Closet Lock-In and Dog Bite

A former housekeeper has filed a lawsuit against Kylie Jenner, marking the fourth legal complaint from a former member of her household staff in seven months. Dinora Carolina Cabria Amaya lodged the suit in Los Angeles Superior Court on Nov. 5, according to court documents obtained by Page Six. The filing names Jenner, her companies and multiple staff members and alleges disability discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination and several labor violations. Amaya says she began working for the Kylie Cosmetics founder in March 2025. She was paid $40 an hour in cash and usually worked six days a week, according to the complaint. She alleges she was regularly denied overtime, made to work long hours and required to move among Jenner’s properties without payment for mileage or travel time. The lawsuit describes an incident in which Amaya says supervisor Laura Dooley told her to enter Jenner’s closet using a passcode. Amaya claims she then was locked inside for more than an hour. According to the complaint, she called Dooley in a panic and asked for help, but Dooley allegedly laughed at and mocked her situation. Dooley allegedly responded: “No one is at the house that can let you out and I cannot give the password to anyone else, you just have to wait.” Amaya says she remained in the closet until someone eventually released her. Amaya also alleges a September 2025 workplace injury. She says an “unsecured canister of pepper spray discharged” into her eyes and face as she cleaned a laundry room drawer. The complaint claims she experienced “blurry vision, burning, itching, dryness, irritation, and a constant sand-like sensation.” The following month, Amaya claims, she was bitten by a dog while cleaning a doghouse at one of Jenner’s properties. She reported the injury but says she got no meaningful help and bought over-the-counter medication to treat herself. Amaya further alleges she was told to leave rooms or stay out of sight because Jenner did not want to see her. She says she was terminated on Feb. 6, soon after she asked why another housekeeper was receiving mileage reimbursement when she was not. Michael Rhodes, a legal representative for Jenner, told Page Six: “These latest cases are being brought by the same lawyer who previously filed claims on behalf of Kylie’s former household staff. It’s clear that this lawyer wants to use publicity to try and extract an unwarranted payday. We’re not going to be intimidated into doing that. As such, we’ll defend these meritless cases vigorously and look forward to telling our side of the story.”
