Information Makayla B. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know if your pet is comfortable around children or if they need separation, special space, or extra boundaries to keep everyone safe.

A typical day

A typical day includes feeding, playtime, fresh water, cuddles, enrichment, and calm downtime. I follow each pet’s routine to keep them safe, comfortable, happy, and relaxed.

Pet care experience

I bring strong animal-care experience from many veterinary clinics, where I assisted veterinarians with exams, blood draws, vaccination preparation, restraint, sample collection, and monitoring behavior and health. I also performed daily husbandry tasks, communicated with owners, and supported animals through stressful clinic visits. I have additional experience with dog-sitting, pet boarding, equine care, and handling high-energy working breeds, along with administering oral medications, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing enrichment. My focus is always safety, consistency, and ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away.

Makayla was great! Lucy seemed very content and stress free which is a huge concern for me when leaving her with someone. Makayla updated me regularly and Lucy was doing great! Will definitely book with her again. She will take very good care of you pet!

We can’t say enough good things about Makayla! She accommodated us from beginning to end. She was so prompt to reply and extremely thoughtful with pictures while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found her ☺️

Makayla is marvelous! Our dog loved her time at her house. She did a great job taking care of our Kyla. We strongly recommend her to everyone!

Makayla is awesome! My dog can be hesitant around new people but immediately warmed up to her which I immediately recognized as a win. She went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and I were comfortable, with her excellent communication, flexibility, and easy-going disposition. I would 100% recommend Makayla to anyone looking for exceptional care for their four-legged loved one.
