Safety, trust & environment

We have a very large and fully fenced backyard for the pets to run and play in. We will set up the kiddie pool for water lovers! We have converted half of our house into a playroom for the dogs, and also offer private bedrooms for reactive or less social dogs, as well as cats and small animals. Your pet will feel right at home staying with us! We always supervise outdoor and indoor playtime. We always separate pets for feedings as well. We have 3 dogs of our own, all of which are friendly and fully vaccinated. If your dog is needing some socializing or loves to play, they will love our pack! If they are more shy, we can keep our dogs separated to minimize stress.

Information Makenzi C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any medications/special diets, or any behavioral concerns. I do have cats but I keep them separated so if your dog is not cat friendly that is not a problem.

A typical day

We match the energy of the pups staying with us. We love hanging out in the backyard with the dogs. We have lots of toys for the dogs to play with as well. We are also able to provide walks and trips to the dog park as well. I like to bake treats for the pups as well so please let me know if your dog has any food allergies!

Personalized Petcare

Pet care experience

My husband and I are avid pet lovers. I grew up volunteering and working with dogs and horses as a teenager. I worked as a ranch hand for half of a year, then transitioned to a position as a vet tech. I worked as a vet tech for dogs and cats for 3 years and decided to branch out into pet care services over the past two years. We have been able to help out numerous dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles, and other animals. We are insured and bonded through the Pet Sitter Association. I have experience with special needs dogs and administering medication. Between my spouse and I, we are typically always home and can adjust our schedule as needed to fit potty breaks or medication. We have a very large and fully fenced backyard for the pets to run and play in. We have converted half of our house into a playroom for the dogs, and also offer private bedrooms for more elderly animals or cats and exotics. Your pet will feel right at home staying with us! We always supervise outdoor and indoor playtime. We always separate all pets for feedings as well. We have 3 dogs of our own, all of which are friendly and fully vaccinated. If your dog is needing some socializing or loves to play, they will love our pack! If they are more shy, we can keep our dogs separated to minimize stress.

Makenzi was very responsive throughout the whole process, and sent updates and photos all weekend during my dog's stay. I'm very happy with the whole experience!

My dog, Mia, is a senior and has separation anxiety among other special needs. I am grateful for the care she received from Makenzi.
