Makenzie can care for
Availability
I work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and I’m in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which still allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for attentive pet care. Whether it's a quick check-in, a mid-day visit, or extended care, I can easily adjust my day to accommodate your pet's needs. Since my job allows me to work from anywhere with Wi-Fi, I’m able to be available at different times throughout the day. On my in-office days, I can also stop by during my lunch break to let your dog out and spend some time playing with them. This flexibility makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my routine while ensuring your furry friend gets the care and attention they deserve. I’ll also be back home in the evenings to give them plenty of attention, and I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for-no matter the day of the week!

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care, adapting my approach based on their individual needs. I ensure that your pet enjoys their time outdoors in a safe, enclosed environment where they can exercise and explore. I also maintain open communication with pet owners by sending lots of pictures of videos, keeping them updated on their pet’s activities and well-being. Rest assured, your furry friend will be treated with the utmost care and respect while in my care!
Information Makenzie H. would like to know about your pet
It's essential for me to understand your pet's unique personality, routine, and any specific needs before their stay. Key information includes their dietary restrictions, any allergies, medical conditions, and preferred activities or toys. Knowing how they interact with other animals and their comfort levels with new environments helps me create a safe and enjoyable experience. Additionally, understanding their daily routine, such as feeding times, exercise preferences, and sleep habits ensures that I can maintain consistency and keep them feeling secure while you're away. The more I know about your pet, the better I can provide the care and attention they deserve!
A typical day
A typical day with the pets I care for is filled with fun, engaging activities tailored to their individual needs and personalities. Mornings I like to start with a refreshing walk or playtime in the dog park, where your furry friend can stretch their legs and socialize with other pets. After some exercise, we settle in for breakfast, followed by some cuddle time or play time with their favorite toys. During the day I try to incorporate activities that your pet enjoys. If the weather is nice, we might head back to the dog park for more adventures or take a walk around the neighborhood to explore new sights and smells. Afternoons often involve some downtime, where I provide a cozy space for them to relax, along with gentle petting and attention. I always make sure to stick to their routine, whether that’s lunchtime, potty breaks, or nap times, to help them feel secure and comfortable. Evenings are a time for bonding, whether it's a playing with their favorite toy or just snuggling on the couch while watching TV. I ensure that every pet feels loved, engaged, and part of the family, creating a joyful experience during their stay with me!

I will love your fur baby as my own
Pet care experience
I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, growing up in a home with both dogs and cats since I was a baby. My experience extends across all life stages- from caring for kittens and puppies to providing special care for senior pets, including an older dog my mom rescued who was blind and deaf. I've had the privilege of being involved in every phase of pet care, from the excitement of welcoming a new pet to supporting them through their golden years. I currently have two beloved cats at home and am passionate about giving all animals the love and attention they deserve. In addition to cats and dogs, I’ve also helped care for lizards, rabbits, turtles, and hamsters. My lifelong love for animals and diverse experience make me a compassionate, reliable sitter who truly understands the unique needs of each pet.

Reviews
Mackenzie is absolutely wonderful! Great communicator, truly loves her job and is responsible and competent. We will continue to book her for as long as she will have us!!
Makenzie was a great dog sitter for our 2 pups! She had great communication and followed all our instructions. We will definitely use her again in the future!
Makenzie is was phenomenal staying in-home with my fur babies. My pets are typically shy around people, and they were cuddling with her on the couch like they do with me! It was such a relief to know they were well taken care of when I was gone. I also came back to my place just like how I left it. Will definitely be using her again! 🩵
She’s just wonderful!! Took the job at last minute as another sitter canceled and she made time for a meet and greet still - she loved our baby as her own! Cannot say enough wonderful things. Will 100% be asking her to come back for our next trip.
