Safety, trust & environment

I will not be able to provide care in my own home, but I am more than happy to drive to you to provide drop-in services and walk your animals. If providing a drop-in visit for you, I’m always happy to meet beforehand so you can show me everything your pets need.

Information McKenzie F. would like to know about your pet

It would be great to get to know your pet before a walk or visit so I can be sure to provide them with the best possible care that’s tailored to their needs. This can be favorite places to go, favorite toys, what they love to do, medications they need, and anything else you can think of that I should know! I also would enjoy learning random facts about them. One about my cat Princess is that she likes Fleetwood Mac.

A typical day

Going on walks and hikes is one of my hobbies, so I would love to have your dogs go with me. Let me know any good recommendations in your area, as well as favorite places your dog likes to go, and we will be sure to head that way.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, and fish since I was 12 years old. Alongside having animals for as long as I can remember, I have experience completing drop-in visits, providing overnight care, and administering scheduled medications. Pet sitting and dog walking is always my favorite things to do and I would love the opportunity to spend time with your pets! You can expect regular updates and plenty of cute photos. A little bit more about me: I engaged in five years of Dog 4H, three of which I was a junior leader where I helped teach kiddos about dog health and helped others train their four legged friends. In this program I learned many things about how to care for and train dogs, including doggie first-aid, techniques for giving medications, and grooming. Dinah was my dog in this program and she loved “going to school” with me. I also absolutely adore cats and have two of my own!

McKenzie is amazing with animals. Growing up they did 4H with their dog and has lived in households with pets pretty much their entire life. Not only that but they are very thoughtful, careful, and detail orientated and has a genuine care and love for all animals whether it's a pet or animals out in the wild. They would be a great pet sitter and anyone would be lucky to have them carebfor their pets!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
