Vet tech assist needing more pals!
Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Mackenzie and I have been a vet tech since 2018. I am a crazy cat lady but love the dogs too. I graduated from Transylvania University with a bachelors degree in Biology and was a member of Chi Omega sorority. I love spending my free time with my pets just watching tv and hanging out. I love meeting new people and their pets and take care of every pet I watch like they’re my own! I can provide very detail oriented care. Currently a vet tech so I am able to handle emergencies if they arise. I’m available weekdays before 7:30am and after 6pm and available almost all weekends. Willing to spend nights at the pets house if owners are gone for a prolonged period of time. ** I currently live in a one bedroom apartment and am not able to watch any pets at my apartment** Experienced in administering medication to pets (heart medication, insulin, thyroid medication, antibiotics etc) I am almost always reachable by phone everyday for any concerns or forgotten last minute instructions/requests. Have been an experienced pet owner for over 12 years. Currently an owner of 3 cute as heck cats. Will always give daily updates about your pet and what we did that day and include any information that is pertinent such as them getting sick. Not only do I work for a vet clinic and know how to react in emergency situations. I am kind of a neat freak sometimes so with me you’ll never have to worry about things getting left out on counters or accidents not getting picked up and cleaned up. I try to always put everything back just the way it was.
Reviews
Mackenzie is the best! She did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs, administered meds and housesitting in our absence. We greatly appreciated how she kept us updated on how everyone was doing. Happy dogs!
Always willing to go the extra mile.
Mackenzie was WONDERFUL!! Our three pups needed lots of patience, understanding, & love when we left (one of their pack-mates had just passed away). Mackenzie provided all of this and more to our little loves. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better! HIGHLY recommend Mackenzie!!
Very kind and kept me updated on my dogs.

Safety, trust & environment
If I am staying at a clients house I will care for the pets in the morning before I go to work around 6am depending on where the client lives and after work around 6pm and free anytime on weekends.
Information Mackenzie B. would like to know about your pet
Would like to know prior to sitting if the pet is on any medication/health problems. Also if they are known to be fear aggressive/food aggressive. Any history in urine marking? Would also like to see records that all animals are up to date on vaccinations. If the dogs know basic commands. If your dog tends to be an escape artist. If your dog is a table surfer. It’s ok. I just gotta remember to put things out of reach. Is your dog in heat or is going to go into heat while I’m watching her? Do you ever kennel your dogs? What things can I do to help comfort the dog if they become anxious from the family being gone.
A typical day
If the weather is nice and my schedule allows it, I would usually pick a nice park or around the river. (If correct leash and harnesses are provided)
