Safety, trust & environment

I offer flexible care options to suit your needs! Whether it’s overnight house sitting or dropping by your place a few times a day, I’ve got you covered. I am extremely trustworthy and reliable, and I can guarantee I will be on time. I prefer to care for pets at their/your home because I believe they are more comfortable in their own environment!

Information Mackenzie S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet requires any type of special medication, care, dietary needs, or if they have any special toys / favorite play activities! Every pet is different, and each deserves the absolute best!

A typical day

Your pet’s day will be full of love and fun! We’ll start with a morning walk or play session to get their energy up. Mid-morning, I’ll engage them with mentally stimulating play, belly rubs, or cuddles—whatever they enjoy most. Afternoons will include another walk or backyard playtime..MORE pets and love! Evenings are all about winding down with a stroll or cuddle session before going to bed. Throughout the day, I’ll ensure regular meals, water, and potty breaks. My goal is to make your pet feel happy, loved, and stress-free while you’re away!

Because they deserve the best!!

Pet care experience

I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I have a habit of approaching any animal I see to give them lots of love and pets. During my time in college, I enjoyed pet sitting as much as I could, and also volunteered at the Humane Society in Gainesville! Feeding, walking, potty breaks, play time, giving medications - it is all like second nature to me! I grew up with dogs in the home & I am extremely comfortable around any pup. My sweet dog Dansby is a rescue, and he requires eye drops / medication twice a day - so I have experience with this if your pup needs extra care! In college I adopted the sweetest little kitty and have an over the top love for all cats! I am a true believer that cats need more affection & attention than people thing - so you can rest easy knowing your cat will be as happy as ever while you are away! I was a turtle mom when I was younger, and currently have a bearded dragon - so I am not just limited to cats and dogs! I am so passionate about all animals. They are an extension of your family and deserve to be treated as such! I would be so grateful for the opportunity to spend time with you pet(s)!!

MacKenzie came over twice before the sitting to meet my reactive (but sweet) dogs. She navigated their complex needs perfectly (my dogs must be kept separate in our home) and loved on them all weekend. Thanks!! They aren't easy babies and she did wonderful.

Mackenzie is absolutely great! Dallas is so happy every time she comes, and he gets so much attention, has so much fun on his walk and she is so great listening to his needs!

If we could give 10+ stars to Mackenzie we would! She took care of our sweet puppy while we were away on vacation. We didn’t have to worry about our girl one time. Mackenzie was very attentive to our pups needs, and treated her just like she was hers. She communicated frequent updates, and always let us know what was going on. We are so grateful to have found someone so kind and loving for our Leaf while we were away.
