Pet care experience

My love for animals is unbelievable

I have had all sorts of animals since I was born. I currently have 3 dogs(a german shepherd, giant schnauzer, and mini schnauzer), 1 cat(russian blue) and 2 ducks. I know how to give medicine if needed. No animal is too big or too small. I have been pet sitting for family friends for about a few years now. I have always wanted to work with animals since I was in 5th grade so being able to work with your animals will help me fulfill my dream. I will love and care for your pet like they are my own. Sometime in the future, I want to further my education in Veterinary Science and hopefully get my degree one day. Being able to work with your animals will help a ton!

House Sitting • Aug 02, 2026

MAKAYLA was fantastic! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We needed a last minute dog sitter / house sitter for a week while on vacation in Hawaii. Our scheduled sitter became unavailable 3 days before the trip which was stressful. Makayla swiftly responded to our request and scheduled to meet us the next day. She quickly put out anxious, highly strung, 6 lb. dog at ease and carefully watched our home while we were away - including taking out the trash, collecting the mail (and unexpected Amazon packages), and monitoring for rotating city power outages in the heat of the summer so we wouldn't loose our food. She even notified us immediately when our roofer prematurely dropped off our shingles and left them in the driveway which were not scheduled to arrive until the following week. She sent us pictures and videos of our dog everyday so we could see how happy and comfortable he was. We felt we could relax and enjoy our time far away from home because she was so diligent and effortful in her efforts to assume the dog sitting and house sitting responsibilities. I am highly impressed with her work ethic and level of maturity. We will definitely call her whenever we need a sitter again.

Makayla dog sat at our house for a week and did a great job. We felt at ease knowing that our pup was being taken care of. She sent photo updates. She was responsive and communicative and very polite. Will hire again!

Makayla is the best! She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable and happy. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be booking her again!

Makayla has shown time and time again her responsibility in all areas of life. Not to mention her extremly caring and concious personality. She loves dogs just as if they were her best friend.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I don’t have experience in taking care of special needs dogs, but if you tell me what you need done, I will get it done.
