Pet care experience

Walking Trails and Wagging Tails!

I have experience watching and training my neighbors, family friends, my own personal dogs. I have trained many puppies and cared for our more senior friends who need special attention. What sets me apart is my personalized approach to pet care. I train puppies with patience and positive reinforcement, ensuring they develop good habits early on. I’m also experienced in senior pet care, providing gentle attention and understanding their unique needs. Whether it’s administering medications, tailoring exercise routines, or just offering extra cuddles, I’m dedicated to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar surroundings. For dog walking, I follow a route based on your dog’s energy level and your preferences, offering plenty of time for exercise and bathroom breaks. For cat sitting, I maintain a consistent routine, including feeding, playtime, and cleaning litter boxes. I’m also attentive to their emotional needs, providing affection and companionship. I always ensure the home is left tidy, and I update pet parents with regular photos and check-ins. My goal is to keep pets content and relaxed while giving owners peace of mind.

Makayla responded within minutes of us requesting a last minute walker for Archer. She communicated clearly and then showed up right on time. She gave me a couple of updates during the walk and then a clear summary as to how she left. We definitely recommend her and will be happy to request Makayla again soon!
