Excited Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Mekala! I absolutely love all animals. I have an old man dog, Nero, and my roommate has a bunny rabbit, Taters P. Recious. I have a full time job as a barista at UT and I'm looking to save up more money for my college goals. When I'm able to, I'd like to study to become a veterinarian. I love all sorts of animals, but dogs will always have a special place in my heart! I've got my own phone and transportation, so when needed I am very easy to contact. My usual work hours are 6am - 4.30pm Monday thru Thursday My roommate tends to have the opposite schedule from me, so usually our animals are rarely alone and if so, at most I’d say an hour and a half to an hour. He works Wednesday thru Sunday Weekends are a free for all, playtime and relaxing all day! We also have a decently sized fenced in front yard. When my dog is out, I’m out and you can expect the same for your dog as well! If your pup is coming for a little vacay here, I will be here all day after work to hang and party with him/her I'm really excited to be back and excited to hang with some cool dogs!

Mekala was a delight to work with. She took very good care of our pup and always sent timely updates.

Mekala was awesome! She sent me updates with pictures and Reggie got along really well with her dog Nero. Thanks Mekala for keeping my mind at ease while I was on vacation!

Mekala was great! She sends constant updates on Arya with photos and replies promptly when I’d ask about her. She was accommodating and flexible with requests.

Mekala was amazing with our dog. Her dog is now friends with my dog and I hope they get to hang out again. Thank you for all the pictures and we will be using you next time we need someone to look after our little black and white cow!

A typical day

Depends on the dog. Some dogs like to lay around and chill. I'm all for that! Others want to go out to the park or take walks. I'll grab the leash and we'll get going! It really just depends on your instructions and how your dog is. If they are allowed to go to a dog park, I only go to fenced in places and of course they are closely watched.
