Pet care experience

Top Quality Pet Care - In Memory of Lucy 🕊️

My earliest childhood memories include a safari of different animals, there has almost never been a time in my life where I did not have a pet of some kind. This amazing privilege has allowed me to experience a variety of things and learn valuable skills that helped me go on to raise and train my dog Lucy, who sadly passed just shy of her 11th birthday (far too soon). I have worked many different breeds & species over the years such as guinea pigs, mice, rabbits, dogs (Chihuahuas to Great Danes), cats (English Shorthairs to Mainecoons), equines (13-17 hands), ant colonies, chickens, Giant African Land Snails, and more! My only real limit is spiders and scorpions, bit too creepy crawly for me haha! I have volunteered with rescue dogs and have experience in managing dogs who may have additional behavioural needs (e.g. strong pull on the lead, dog reactive, etc) or who are in the process of being trained and need a clear structure to help keep them on target toward their training goals.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

As I have worked with a variety of pets, I understand the importance of routine within their lives and will always follow your instructions. This includes feeding routine/diet, crate vs. no crate dogs, grooming routines, etc. Keeping this routine the same as they have normally will mean a happier and more relaxed pet while you are away as it will be familiar and comforting to them.

Duke absolutely loves seeing MacKenzie. MacKenzie has looked after duke periodically since he was a tiny puppy! He’s always so excited to see her and we fully trust her taking care of Duke.

I would highly recommend McKenzie to look after your pet. She is trustworthy and communicates well, I knew Rocko was in safe hands! We will definitely use McKenzie for future bookings!

McKenzie has been fantastic, as always! She’s a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter who genuinely cares about Kya’s wellbeing, and it really shows in the way she looks after her. Kya absolutely loves it when McKenzie comes to visit, and she’s always so content and calm afterwards—which means everything to me when leaving her at home. I would always recommend McKenzie to anyone needing dog sitting; she’s truly wonderful. 🐾

Schedule

Weekends are my specialty! I am employed full-time during the week. This means I am perfect for pet sitting during weekend events, weekend trips away, or even just a late night out with friends to celebrate the end of a long work week.

McKenzie can host up to 1 drop-in per day
Please let me know if your pet has any specific needs, or behaviour factors that I should be aware of (for example if your dog doesn't like walking near other animals, or your cat doesn't like to be touched on their neck) - any information that will help keep your pet and I safe and happy. I am willing to consider animals with special needs/disabilities provided clear instructions are given to enable me to support them properly. I've worked with dogs who have seizures, deaf animals, wobbly walkers, and more.
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.
