Pet care experience

Paws, Play, and Plenty of Love

I treat every dog like my own—with love, patience, and personalized care. I have hands-on experience with puppies, including basic training, crate routines, and leash manners. I’m also gentle and attentive with senior dogs, making sure they’re comfortable, and moving at their own pace. Whether it’s a high-energy walk or a slow, cozy cuddle session, I adapt to each dog’s needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and truly passionate about keeping tails wagging and hearts happy even when you’re away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and creating an stress-free environment. I follow your instructions closely whether it’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or special comforts like favorite toys or bedtime routines. I keep your home clean and secure, treating it with the same respect as I do your pet. I’m attentive to their behavior and energy levels, making sure they get just the right balance of play, exercise, and snuggles. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and loved right where they feel most at home.

Makayla was so patient with my trouble makers! She navigated all of our pets quirks with ease, and checked in often!

Malayla was great!!! I have a big hyper dog and sometimes people get scared due to his high energy. But Malayla had no problems! My cats loved her to which is really rare. We be booking her again.

Makayla was wonderful! She provided house sitting during our nearly weeklong vacation. The dogs took to her immediately during the meet and greet and she did a great job during the stay. Maykayla is respectful and communicative and followed through with all the requests I made. Appreciate the love and care she had for our family and pups. I highly recommend. Thank you Makayla!!

Makayla followed our instructions carefully & kept Chiko company while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup!

Malayalam was great with our dogs. She was even able to provide one of our dogs with her twice daily injections with no issues. Definitely recommend and definitely will book again in the future.
