Pet care experience
Currently I work as a doggy daycare attendant and am working towards my dog training certification. Lifelong passion for animals of all types. Experienced with many reptiles, small animals, cats, and dogs alike. Having had dogs growing up and currently owning 4 cats, many aquariums, and 2 large dogs, I completely understand how stressful it can be finding the right person to care for them. I can cater my care to all sorts of dogs - large or small to friendly or anxious to puppy or senior. I've always had a special place in my heart for animals that haven't had the best past - I understand what abuse can do and animals tend to respond well to my gentle approach. Reading a dog's body language is a very important skill I have experience with, one of the many reasons why I've never met a dog I can't work with, I just have to get on their level first. My care will come with as many updates or pictures as your heart desires. I would never leave a loved one with someone I didn't trust, I'd expect you to feel the same. On Rover I do not have many reviews, but I have many personal clients from over the years and trainers who would tell you all about what I do. I am very prompt to respond and to accept the booking, most messages I've gotten either ghost or are scams. Please, feel free to reach out and ask all the questions you need to!
Reviews
Mackenzie did a wonderful job, taking care of all our pets. I will be using her services again in the future.
MacKenzie did a wonderful job. We have two stubborn old bulldogs and they actually got up, went outside and ate. Very pleased with her visit.

Safety, trust & environment
Cannot care for pet in my home, one of my personal dog is not welcoming to new guests of the furry variety. Can transport dogs to areas for play/walking or totally fine with your neighborhood or yard! Communication is key, I'm flexible.
Information Mackenzie S. would like to know about your pet
A heads up with any special care to ensure I am able to give proper care. Dog friendliness if wanting me to take out in social areas - not friendly dogs very welcome still, would adjust the activities!
A typical day
Since my main job is a doggy daycare, I love to walk to do pack walks or solo walks at local park areas - dog park is also a great time if owner allows. Open to requested walk areas or social errand adventures like petco!
Services
Mackenzie can watch in your home
Availability
Pet care is basically my life - Live very active life, even with work, have before/lunch/after visit availability and overnights can be requested, but your house would need to be dog friendly as Doug would need to come with me. I also do regular pack walks on Monday and Friday mornings, more pups are always welcome!
