Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs my whole life. We had small dogs and a cat growing up, but I pet sat for family friends who had large dogs often. I now have 3 large dogs of my own that I spoil to death with the best care and typically walk on my own. I also have a ball python whom I (try to) spoil, if you have reptiles who need to be checked on too, I can do so. I know puppies will be puppies, so I don’t charge any extra to care for them and I charge very little for extra dogs since I am used to caring for 3!
Reviews
MacKenzie was a great sitter for our pup,Lucca! She is was very reliable and made sure we knew how Lucca was doing every time she dropped in. Highly recommend MacKenzie 👌👍🏻👏🏼
Mackenzie is awesome. She takes great care of our 3 wild pups on our regularly scheduled visits.
Mackenzie was totally amazing while watching my little ladies! Cats seemed receptive, no issues and the pictures made me feel comfortable leaving them with her. A definite rebook when needed!
Such a delight to see her pics abd reports after each visit.

Safety, trust & environment
I’m an animal lover through and through. I’ll treat your animals like they are my own and my own are treated like furry spoiled children haha. I’ll give them cuddles, pets, and play with them when I check in and walk them as far or as much as they are used to/can handle. I’m used to walking three large dogs by myself so I can handle pulling or dogs that are more chaotic walkers.
Information Mackenzie T. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are certain leashes/harnesses/gentle leaders you prefer to use for your dog when walking. Also if there are certain activities or toys they prefer. If your dog is anxious or has separation anxiety let me know and I will take extra care to ensure they are comfortable when you are gone.
A typical day
My dogs typically love to play fetch and tug of war, they also like chew toys and toys that can keep them satisfied for longer like stuffable toys or lick mats. I also know how to make some quick enrichment toys/diy puzzles with everyday home items for them to work on. I like training dogs to do tricks, I’ve taught my dogs a lot in a short period of time. For walks, I generally prefer large parks with lots of different paths we can take to keep it interesting or areas that are very walker friendly. I always want to ensure the safety of myself and the dogs when walking.

Availability
I’m a recent doctoral graduate who has a pretty flexible schedule as I am wrapping up university work and applying for jobs. I work the majority of time from home on my laptop and unless I have meetings scheduled I can set my own hours.
