I love dogs- all day every day!

Pet care experience

Hello! I am an animal lover who has always had pets growing up (dogs, cats, and rodents). I've been watching my friends' dogs and cats over the past 8 years, including times when I would take care of them for an extended period of time (2 weeks). My husband is a dog lover as well! I love animals so much that I would love to continue doing this. Because of my experience, I know that your pets are a part of your family and I will treat them as such. I love to take dogs on long walks. I've worked with hyperactive dogs to stop leash pulling, as well as training stubborn dogs to use the restroom outside. I've also helped train cats stop scratching furniture. I understand how important it is to have the proper amounts of play and exercise for a happy and healthy dog. * I do have a day job, so if you would like to book me during the weekdays, please note that I will not be able to do a mid-day visit, where I will only be able to see them in the morning up until 7am, and the afternoon from 4pm on.

Maika is fantastic!! She took care of my two pups at my home while I was out of town and she kept me posted the whole time with texts and photos. I know they felt comfortable with her because they stayed on their eating schedule when at times in the past with others, they had was some anxiety and they didn’t eat. Although that’s normal and I know it can happen from time to time, the fact that they stayed on schedule speaks volumes of the comfort they felt with her. Maika is definitely a go-to for future care!

Maika is the most amazing dog sitter we have ever had! She loves and plays with our dogs like they are her own. They are always so happy when we get home. She has helped us in a pinch a couple of times and is always incredible accommodating and reliable! I would recommend her to anyone!

Maika is a fantastic dog sitter. Her enthusiasm and affection of our dog Bella was immediately noticeable. She sent us photos and text messages to keep us informed. Without question, we will use her again and recommend her without any reservation.
