Easy-going dog care

Pet care experience

I’ve been surrounded around animals of all sizes my whole life! More specifically, growing up with cats and dogs throughout my friend & families homes. In my own home, I have grown up with a Golden Retriever named Sadie and my 21 year old cat, Pepper. In addition, I just adopted my first kitten, Stanley & my own golden, Ivy! My passion with animals grew more in high school after volunteering at my towns local Animal Shelter. With this, I have also gained additional experience through walking & watching family and friends animals since moving to Colorado! I am easy going & willing to learn any specific requests or needs for you or your furry friends. I am currently working part-time & am a part time student at CSU. go rams! My schedule ranges week to week, but its often very open! I would love to fill my time being active and enjoying the beautiful weather or keeping your pets company:) Since a young age I have gained so much experience on safety, comfort, and overall fun for a variety of dogs. I have been constantly surrounded around Pointers, Golden Retrievers, Pit Bulls, Beagles, and Great Danes. (to name a few) I was also raised with 2 cats in the house, both with very different ages & personalities. This has me the ability to take care of an elderly cat & a spunky kitten! I will make sure the walks and/or playtimes are safe, rewarding, and end off in a great friendship for everyone.

My dogs looked very happy in the pictures she sent. A+ communication. A+ care. I’m very picky about who watches my dogs and within the first five minutes of meeting her I knew they were going to be in good hands. Will definitely use again if needed.

I can easily accommodate to any want or need for you or your pets! I want to make sure they are happy & comfortable while you’re away. What keeps them at ease? What toys do they like? What is their potty schedule? I will make sure our experience will be fun & cozy!

Information Makayla S. would like to know about your pet

Feel free to let me know if your dog has any preferences or special needs beforehand! I am totally willing to accommodate. I want to make sure our experiences are as easy going as possible:) What are your pets energy levels? Are they reactive or triggered by certain noises or animals? What is an average day like for you guys & how can I help keep that routine? Do they have favorite foods, toys, etc? Allergies?

A typical day

I love going hiking and going on walks to explore new places. It really ranges on the dogs energy level, but I can do short walks around the block or long stretched walks to new places!

I would love to use my free time socializing & caring for your furry friends! In my down time, I am often outside, so any additional walk is always a huge bonus to my day! I am also away from my hometown, so I am often missing those extra pets & cuddles from my families pets.
