Availability
From now until about mid-February, I will be working traditional 9-5 hours Monday through Friday. Any pets booked for house sitting should be comfortable being left unattended for the duration of the work day, but would be given the opportunity to use the bathroom immediately prior to my departure for work and immediately following my departure from work. Following that period, I will be working night shift hours Monday through Wednesday and would be able to accommodate a wider range of hours for drop-in visits and walks, but would not be able to spend the night at your home for pets booked for house sitting. If you have any questions about scheduling or just want clarity prior to booking, don’t hesitate to reach out :)

Safety, trust & environment
Routine is important to me, and it’s no doubt important to your pets! My primary goal is always to limit the amount of change, so feeding and potty break times will be strictly adhered to. If there’s valuable training you’ve worked hard to implement, it won’t go to waste! Don’t be shy about letting me know exactly which cues and commands to use, and any other little personality quirks I should know about.
Information MacKenzie G. would like to know about your pet
To give your pet the best care possible, I’d love to know about any quirks or idiosyncrasies that make them them! Please share their daily routine, feeding schedule, potty habits, favorite toys or activities, and any training cues you use. Let me know if they have any medical needs, reactivity triggers, fears, or things that make them especially happy (or stressed). The more I know ahead of time, the more comfortable and seamless their time with me will be!
A typical day
Each day with your pup follows a consistent and comforting routine. I start with a reliable morning wake-up or arrival time, followed by a potty break and breakfast. Throughout the day, we’ll stick to their usual feeding and potty schedule to keep things familiar and stress-free. If the weather cooperates, we’ll enjoy plenty of outdoor time - whether that’s a stroll around the neighborhood or a longer hike for active, able-bodied dogs. Indoors, there’s time for play, enrichment, and of course, plenty of cuddles and calm downtime. My goal is to keep your pet happy, relaxed, and well-cared for while you’re away.

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m MacKenzie, your pet’s new best friend and part-time squirrel scout. While I might not have a fancy pet-sitting degree, I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, and my own dog (a.k.a. my four-legged child) has taught me plenty about basic training, reactivity, and the art of treating every leaf like it’s a masterpiece. I’m also a pro at giving meds and following care instructions to a T, so your pet’s routine won’t miss a beat. Plus, as an avid hiker, I’m more than happy to take active pups on day hikes for a little extra adventure! I get that every walk is a big deal, every squirrel is a personal nemesis, and if there’s a cat involved, they’re probably running the household. And yes, I’m here for my own steps too, because walking is my therapy!
Reviews
Mackenzie was prompt, sent us pics of our pets, and adjusted as we needed to when our plans changed. We will definitely use her again and would recommend her to others!
Mackenzie took great care of Willow and sent us photos and updates!
Great experience with Mackenzie! She gave us daily updates and photos of the pups while on our trip. Would highly recommend!
MacKenzie was amazing with our fur babies! She was patient and understanding, and had amazing follow through with our stubborn pooch. I would love for her to visit us again.
