Pet care experience

No critter too big or small!

I have been a pet owner all my life! In college, I had a job as an animal groomer and worked with 100s of different breeds, temperaments and personalities - cats and dogs. Currently, I am a young professional in Whitefish that works evenings, giving me space to care for your animals through the work day, early mornings, weekend getaways, etc. I am available for overnights at your place, and have a fenced yard at home, walking distance to the dog park! I recently lost my catahoula, Rigby, of 13 years together to cancer and while navigating that loss, would love to share all my love and undivided attention with your dog, cat or any animal in between I can adapt to your pets needs, as I am continuously learning about different breeds and personalities - from high energy to the couch potato; shy, friendly, sassy - each and every one has an individual story and needs someone to understand their unique needs!

This was our 4th time having Mckensey watching our cat, she always does a tremendous job. It gives us suck peace when traveling to know that she is on top of our pets and household. THANK YOU!!

Mckensey is so great!!! Our third time using her, she really goes above and beyond, we really feel so secure leaving our cats and home in her hands. I don't know what we'd do without her. Thank you again!!

Safety, trust & environment

Atn: Please please do not schedule a meet and greet if you are planning on getting your pets watched last minute by the neighbor kid etc because it’s free; please be respectful of my time traveling to you in your home, I highly value reciprocated commitment and respect on your end; if the meet and greet does not work out, please inform me why or how I can improve, or if it’s not a good match we can discuss this as well! Meet and greets are the most important part of this job to ensure trust in each other ❤️ I am available to come to your home and care for your dog in their familiar environment. Show me your routine and I can adapt to training, crating, walk times, play time etc. I have a fenced yard and currently have a female corgi at my house, I can give your dog the utmost attention while in my care, and they can have a friend to play with if their meet and greet is successful
