Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to conduct a meet-and-greet with all my clients before booking. This allows you to get to know me and ensures that you are comfortable with who will be taking care of your pet. It also gives us the opportunity to address any questions or concerns you may have. Usually, I book them in person, but I can accommodate an online meeting if that's more convenient for you. I have a particular skill in working with dogs that are nervous around strangers. My extensive experience with a variety of dogs and cats has taught me that some pets require a little more time and space to thrive. I am a patient person, and I understand the importance of creating a comfortable environment for your pet.

Information McKayla W. would like to know about your pet

I want to tailor the experience to the needs of both you and your pet. I come to my meet-and-greets with a questionnaire that I fill out for all my clients, covering most of what either of us would need to know!

A typical day

Commonly Asked Questions: Will you be with my pet full-time when you are pet sitting? During my pet-sitting stay, your pet is my number one priority. I will be with your pet the majority of the time. However, I may need to step out for Drop-In visits during the day. If I do need to step out, I will always double-check with you first to ensure it's okay. Rest assured, your pet's well-being is always at the forefront of my mind. Do you have your own insurance, and are you bonded? I do not have private insurance, nor am I bonded. I do all my work through Rover, so you and I are covered under the Rover Guarantee as long as we book through Rover. I will link the Rover Guarantee so that you can review it yourself. https://www.rover.com/ca/rover-guarantee/ If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. I'm here to ensure that you and your pet are comfortable and well cared for.

Pet care experience

My lifelong love for animals has led me to a deep passion for pet care. I’ve had a variety of pets since I was very young, and my experience in pet care comes from a diverse range of household and farm animals. I've also volunteered at SPCAs and provided pet sitting services for friends and family, both during and after high school. While I currently don't have any pets of my own, I'm eager to spend quality time with yours! Working full-time, I'm also exploring avenues outside of my industry while taking care of your pets.

McKayla was wonderful with our old girl! She was super punctual and communicative, she paid very close attention to details about medication and walks. We would definitely book with her again :)

McKayla’s communication was wonderful. At our initial in home meeting she brought along her own discovery workbook to learn how to best care for our pets; showing great initiative and organization. We received photos and updates over our weekend away. Best of all we returned to happy dogs who obviously enjoyed their time with her.
