Pet care experience

Loving, Experienced Sitter

I’ve been pet sitting for over 15 different families in the past 5 years, caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I currently have a 10-year-old terrier/pitbull mix named Anna (we mostly call her Chicken), who is sweet, loving, and incredibly loyal. I truly see pets as family. I grew up around animals and have owned 4 cats, 2 dogs, 5 hamsters, a hermit crab, and a fish tank. My first cat was a Turkish Angora named Mr. Baby when I was little, so I’ve been comfortable with animals my whole life. I’m very friendly, open, and attentive, and I will treat your pet with the same care and love I give my own. If your pet requires any extra attention—such as medications, specific routines, or special care—I am always open and willing to accommodate whatever is needed to make their stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a routine, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment and always pay close attention to behavior, routines, and needs. I have a very sweet and well-behaved 10-year-old dog named Anna (we call her Chicken), who is friendly and used to being around other animals. I follow any instructions given closely, including feeding schedules, medications, crate training, or special care. I keep a clean and safe space, monitor pets closely, and make sure they feel secure, relaxed, and at home while in my care.

McKinnon took great care of our pup. She kept in touch with us and sent us photos (which we love and so appreciate), and Frasier was obviously well cared for and happy while we were away. Thanks so much, McKinnon!!

This was our first time having McKinnon watch our 2 Dobermans. She was very attentive and played with them and sent us pics. She was very understanding when we surprised her with our early return home. Thanks McKinnon for doing a great job !!

McKinnon was great with our 3 dogs! She sent pictures, updated us frequently, and cared for them well. We would definitely hire her again!

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, routines, medications, or behaviors I should be aware of so I can provide the best care possible. I like to keep pets on their normal schedule to reduce stress. Also let me know how your pet does with other animals, feeding preferences, and any triggers or anxieties. My goal is to make the experience as smooth, safe, and comfortable as possible for your pet.
