Information Makayla J. would like to know about your pet

I have no preferences. All dogs are welcome. I would like to know medical needs prior to the visit or any dietary needs. I usually can book with short notice too.

A typical day

I have a disc golf course as a backyard, so the dogs will go on plenty of walks. We will be able to play outside and inside with lots of toys that I have. I also have a couch and tv, so we will be able to snuggle together and the dogs will receive lots of attention. I also will take dogs to a dog park if the owners approve it. For me, it’s important to keep dogs on their schedules and do what the owners would do. It’s important to make sure the dogs get love and attention as well as exercise.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Makayla and I am excited for the opportunity to watch and love your four legged friends! I have been taking care of dogs for 15years, because my mom had a dog boarding business back home for most of my life. I have worked with all types of dogs and all ages. I love playing and running with them and making sure they are getting the attention they need. I can clip nails and bathe them as well. I have been doing Rover for the last 7 years. I currently work from home so I am available most of the time and extremely flexible. I do have a dog of my own, Nova. She is a 6 year old Bernese mountain dog. It is my hope that I can love and care for your animals as if they were my own. I hope you will consider using me for your future pet needs. Excited to meet you and your pets soon.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
