Walk-loving, Belly-rubbing Sitter!

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Mackenzie, and I love being outside and seeing happy dogs on walks! I grew up with a dog that I loved dearly, and enjoyed nothing more than spending time inside and outside with him! Since his passing, I have gotten a little over a year of experience petsitting and dog-walking, and am looking to expand and help more families keep their fur babies happy! Whether that be by dropping by for a walk and some tummy rubs, or hanging out while you’re on vacation, I am ready and excited to help out! I’m a high energy person who loves playing with and caring for dogs; please contact me if you think I could be a good pet for your best friend! I have also become a big cat person in my personal life! I have cats of my own and I love them very much. They both have some minor medical conditions that require prescription feeding and monitoring, so I am used to sensitive kitties who need a little extra love. I would love to help care for cats in the area, so other cat people can travel and vacation and have time away from home knowing that their furbaby is well cared for and loved in their absence!

Mackenzie provided fantastic care for my Stella. Stella has separation anxiety and anxiety meeting new people, so I am very careful about who watches her. Mackenzie was so friendly and patient at our meet and greet— I’ve never seen a sitter make friends with Stella so quickly! She was on-time for the walk, stayed at the house after to keep Stella company, and communicated with me throughout the sit. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

Mackenzie would be an excellent dog sitter for Rover. She is friendly and very responsible. You can tell how much she cares about animals and her passion for providing the best care possible. Mackenzie is very detail oriented and will provide the best experience for dog owners and the dogs themselves. I know I can depend on her to care for my pets when I go away.

A typical day

I love to balance time between having fun and relaxing! Your pet and I will get some playtime in if they’re feeling up to it and hangout for some quiet relaxation if they’re feeling aren’t. I love taking walks with dogs, watching the world go by with cats, and learning what any pet’s favorite toy is!
