Pet care experience

Your Pup’s New Best Friend!

I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all ages! At home, I have three wonderful pups—one senior (15 years old) and two energetic 4-year-olds—so I understand the unique needs of both older dogs and playful young ones. Whether it's providing gentle care and patience for senior dogs or keeping up with the boundless energy of puppies, I’m prepared for it all. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like family!

Makayla took wonderful care of my dog. She provided really nice updates and pictures so I could tell my dog was calm, comfortable and happy the whole duration of the visit. Will definitely book again- thank you Makayla!

Makayla was very flexible and able to accept a last minute request. She was timely and followed instructions. Jazzy really enjoyed her walk. Would book again!

Wonderful care. We received updates about our boy and it gave us piece of mind knowing he was in good hands. Will book her again.

Schedule

As a college student on summer break, my mornings and early afternoons are completely dedicated to pet care! I work a part-time job in the evenings, which means I have maximum flexibility from early morning until 3:00 PM to give your pets the exercise and attention they need. Please note: My current routine is tailored for the summer and will adjust slightly in a few months when classes resume. I am always upfront about my availability and keep my calendar updated so there are never any surprises!

Safety, trust & environment

I provide attentive and loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. For dog walking, I ensure safe, engaging walks that match your dog’s energy level, whether they need a leisurely stroll or an active adventure. For home visits, I make sure your pup gets plenty of attention—letting them out for potty breaks, refreshing their water, and giving them playtime and affection. My goal is to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well-cared for while you’re away!

A typical day

I love making sure every pet gets the exercise, play, and attention they need! Whether it’s going on a fun walk, playing fetch, tug-of-war, or simply giving belly rubs and cuddles, I tailor activities to each dog’s personality and energy level. For high-energy pups, I’ll keep them engaged with interactive games and plenty of movement, while for more relaxed dogs, I’ll provide gentle play and companionship. My goal is to keep every pet happy, active, and loved while you’re away!

I want to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care! Before our visit, please let me know about their routine, energy level, any medical needs, allergies, or special care instructions. It’s also helpful to know if they have any fears, favorite activities, or behavioral traits (such as leash pulling or anxiety) so I can provide the best possible care. The more I know, the better I can tailor our time together to keep your pup happy and stress-free!
