About McKayla P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Right now, I’m focusing on dog walking and giving pups a safe, engaging, and positive experience on their daily outings. I have over 5 years of hands-on experience working in a shelter setting, working with all types of dogs — from social butterflies to anxious or reactive pups. Every walk is tailored to each dog’s needs, energy level, and comfort. I read body language, move at their pace, and provide structure, enrichment, and calm guidance. Your dog will get patience, safety-focused handling, and the same love and attention I’d give my own.
Information McKayla P. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what each dog’s personality is like, how they do on leash, and if there’s anything that makes them nervous or extra excited. I also ask about their favorite treats, toys, and daily routine so I can keep things familiar and fun for them.
A typical day
I love keeping dogs busy and happy! We’ll go on walks, explore new smells, play with toys, do puzzle games, and maybe practice a few fun training tricks. Every dog gets one-on-one attention and plenty of love.

Every dog in my care gets individualized attention, enrichment, and a secure environment
Reviews
McKayla is the best puppy momma and sitter!
First time using Rover and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t so incredibly nervous. McKayla made this experience so stress-free. My dogs are not big on other people and they LOVED McKayla. Even my cats immediately attracted to her. They all felt comfortable with her which in turn made me feel that much better. McKayla also we very thorough and even cleaned up any messes and kept any crates clean & dry. Saying I HIGHLY recommend her is honestly an understatement. If you’re worried at all, go with McKayla and I promise you won’t have to worry about anything.
I’ve had McKayala watch my new puppy twice already, I love that she is super communicative & responsive, and helped me feel at ease leaving her . Both times she’s done great with my pup, getting some of that high energy out! She will be my go to sitter. 😊
McKayla had done 3 drop in’s for us as she’s so wonderful with our dogs. She’s always punctual and sends lots of great pictures. It’s clear they really enjoy her company!
