Student and former vet assistant!

Pet care experience

My name is Makenzie, I am currently working towards my bachelors in Psychology, and just recently resigned from my position as a vet assistant to persue subbing for the San Diego School district. I am available most days of the week and weekends between the hours of 6am-3pm. I always have my phone handy and respond quickly to calls, texts, and emails. I worked at a veterinary hospital as a vet assistant for 2 years, taking care of the dogs boarding with us, giving vacicnes, helping with surgeries, and providing aid to the veterinary technicians. I am available for drop in visits, dog walking, and some over night stays if needed. My husband will be with me on some occasions, and possibly will stay with me for over night stays. I love caring for animals, it has been a passion of mine since I was young. So rest easy that your fur babies will be in good hands :)

We love MacKenzie part II! Her work ethic and caring for our dogs has not let up. We just booked with her again for next 2 weeks.

As always, Makenzie was the best and again she was able to come over early in the morning on a last minute call! So reliable and so great, my puppy adores her and I couldn't ask for a better sitter :)

Information Makenzie L. would like to know about your pet

The main things I would feel comfortable knowing before sitting a dog would be; -Are they dog aggressive? -Do they handle themselves well in public settings? I.e Petco, dog park, restaurants that allow dogs at them. -Is there any concerns or issues that I should watch out for while caring for your pet. As well are there any medications they need, as well as any other specific services? i.e wipping paws off after coming inside, allergy meds needed, etc. -What are a few of the dogs favorite toys, or things he or she likes to do.

A typical day

As I mentioned before I love being outside. Hiking is one of my favorite past times. If it is okay with the owner, I could take your dog hiking, or walking on some of the easier park trails in the area so they can get some fresh air. I really enjoy taking my dogs to walk around lake Miramar, so that is always an option for a longer walk. I also think it is fun to take the dogs on a little "adventure" that's what I call it with my dogs. I like taking them in the car, and going to Petco and letting them "pick" out a toy, or going to a restaurant that has a nice open patio and allows dogs. If you prefer your dog not be as social, then we can spend quality time at home playing fetch or tug a war with one of their favorite toys! Or cuddling up together watching a movie :)
