About: Hi, my name is Mackenzie, and I love being outside and seeing happy dogs on walks! I grew up with a dog that I loved dearly, and enjoyed nothing more than spending time inside and outside with him! Since his passing, I have gotten a little over a year of experience petsitting and dog-walking, and am looking to expand and help more families keep their fur babies happy! Whether that be by dropping by for a walk and some tummy rubs, or hanging out while you’re on vacation, I am ready and excited to help out! I’m a high energy person who loves playing with and caring for dogs; please contact me if you think I could be a good pet for your best friend! I have also become a big cat person in my personal life! I have cats of my own and I love them very much. They both have some minor medical conditions that require prescription feeding and monitoring, so I am used to sensitive kitties who need a little extra love. I would love to help care for cats in the area, so other cat people can travel and vacation and have time away from home knowing that their furbaby is well cared for and loved in their absence! I work from home and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule, so I am available throughout the day for feeding, walking, playing, and relaxing with your pets! I am very detail oriented and can ensure that the care your pet receives from me mimics the care they receive from you, to keep your furbaby comfortable and relaxed while you're away!

Lightfoot dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kimberly was AMAZING!! We are traveling in our RV and she came out to our campsite and walked our dogs for us....She was professional, super nice and the dogs loved her.
Margaret is awesome! Even though I live in a different state than Margaret and my mom, Margaret is a good communicator and was a reliable caretaker for Maggie. My mom is a resident in an assisted living facility and I didn’t have to worry about Maggie’s care because Margaret took such great care of her. I highly recommend her!
While recouperating after surgery I needed someone to walk my dog, a 6 lb. rescue Chihuahua. Victoria was a godsend. My little Abby loved her. Victoria was always on time and she took such good care of Abby. She is such a professional. She really knows so much about animals. She is very gentle and caring. I can't recommend her highly enough. I am already planning to use her again soon.
Excellent as always! Vanessa takes wonderful care of our pets and home. She follows directions to a “T” and has lots of experience with animals. All our animals love Vanessa.
Alissa was wonderful with my 60lb pitbull mix, Camry—he absolutely adores her! She’s kind, experienced, and great with dogs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker. 10/10!
