Pet care experience

Experienced, flexible, and loving!

I’ll love your babies like you would! I’m a seasoned pet parent who has raised two judgmental pitbulls and a shepherd mix that’s just along for the ride. I’ve worked in shelters and have loved on all different sizes and breeds of dogs. I have experience in caring for senior and medically-complex animals and I have a huge heart for big dogs—large breeds are my favorite!! Bring on the giants!!

Makenna took great care of our large, needy, high-energy rescue dogs. She understood their needs and gave them the attention and exercise they need. Makenna sent us updates and pictures to reassure us all was well. We felt comfortable with Makenna staying at our house. Highly recommended.

Makenna did a great job with Murph! She followed all of my instructions with him and kept up great communication with me about anything going on while I was gone on a work trip. From the pictures and video she sent, it seemed like Murph had a great time with her. I also came home to a clean house, which was very appreciated! I would book with her again in the future.

Makenna is and always has been our first choice when it comes to who watches our animals. She has always treated them as if they were her own and they run to the door with excitement when they know she is coming over. We always trust her to play with them, walk them, and any other care they need. In fact, the only reason we use Rover in the first place is the rare case when she is not available to watch them. Makenna is kind, diligent, and you will not regret choosing her!

Please let me know if there are any special needs/preferences! It would also be helpful to know if there are any significant personality things I should look out for, such as a pet being skittish or reactive to strangers.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
