Pet care experience

Loving animals forever!

I am a volunteer at the Indy Humane animal shelter. I was raised with dogs. My first dog was a Shiba Inu mixed with a chow…a stubborn but very loyal girl! She was my childhood dog and unfortunately had to be put down last year. Since she’s gone, I don’t have my favorite furry baby anymore, so I figured I can help you fake care of your furry baby! I am skilled in giving medicine as well.

Dog Walking • Mar 31, 2026

Makayla was very helpful with our dog Luna. She was so well taken care of, and it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We could tell she was happy, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the updates.

Makayla did a great job with my pup! She sent lots of photos and made sure Ryngo was well taken care of. I would definitely rebook again :)

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood. There is also a dog park in my complex as well. I don’t allow dogs to meet each other unless it is confirmed by the owner first.

Pets

A typical day

Stimulation is my top priority! Mental and physical exercise is what keeps furry babies happy. Basic obedience commands, snuggle mats, and long walks work great!
