Pet care experience

Responsible loving pet caretaker

I’ve taken care of many high energy dogs and love going on runs, hikes and dog parks with them. Growing up I took care of my cats, and our family dogs. In the last 6 years or so I have been taking care of neighbors, friends and family’s fur children and they have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and at times work on basic manners such as sit, down or shake with their pets. I currently have a husky and two cats who all have set routines Including run/walk time, training time, and many cuddle times. My husky was abused in the past so I am experienced with the special care an abused, neglected or traumatized pet may need. I’ve raised rescued kitties and puppies as well so I have experience in proper handling. If your dog does not do well with new dogs and or is reactive to certain people, situations or places please let me know and I will ensure they are able to be redirected during walks and or our other adventures.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a one bedroom apartment so all my pets are allowed everywhere with close supervision and my husky has a ton of outdoor time on our walks and our daily hr at the nearby dog Park or hiking trail. Each pet is allowed to be on the couches, bed, desk and even my counter (cats only). In the same way I care for my fur children, I will offer full communication with many goofy pictures throughout the booking and make sure your pet has everything they need to ensure they have a fun and safe time with me! If there is any last minute changes in their care, routine, behaviors or you have any concerns, please communicate with me so I can be as flexible and will do my best to accommodate to you and your fur children’s needs/wants!

Mika was amazing with our cat! She was super consistent with communication, sent tons of cute photos, and was so helpful to alleviate any stress about our pet during vacation. I absolutely recommend her & we will definitely re-book! :)

Mika is thorough and very communicative! We’ve had her watch our cats a couple of times now and are always impressed. We highly recommend her. Thank you Mika!

We found Mika after our current walker left for grad school, and she was so gracious to accommodate us for a relatively last minute booking! She was super careful to follow his routine and give our kitten some attention, as well. Very professional and kind! Thank you, Mika!

We are so thankful we found Mika! We have a complex cat dynamic that requires separation and medication for 2 of our 4 cats, and Mika had no problems caring for them. Everyone remained safe and separated, and she sent so many great photos of our boys while we were away! They really seemed to love being in her care, and we are so grateful! I highly recommend her for all sorts of animal care, and especially cats!

Schedule

From the moment I get up the pets breakfast come first and their needs throughout the day are planned into my schedule to allow them as much time out of the crate as possible and to not be inside the crate for more than 6 hrs. I schedule a very set time throughout my day to provide regular walks or hikes. If there are any medications or a set dinner time, or training tricks you want me to do with them please let me know and I will make any modification needed to accommodate your pets needs! If you are flexible, I will be willing to do before or after my work. I am currently working Monday-Friday 3pm-12am. Please be flexible in your times as this allows me to prioritize both your pets well being and my time management! 😅🙃 I will only book one client per date, if you are not booked a week before the dates of your trip I will cancel as I need to prioritize regular clients and allow others to book and lock in the dates and times. If you are a regular repeat customer, I have most everyone locked at their original price from their first booking rates. (That way when things go up it won’t affect your rates or services)

Please Let me know what special accommodations they will need to help them feel safe and loved! If that is going on their favorite trail, having a little extra treat, or something to remind them they’re still home and safe please let me know! I would also love to know their temperament, if they love to play, are very protective, standoffish or if they have been abused or neglected in the past causing them to be very shy or fearful. If they are destructive, reactive or still learning some basic manners please let me know so I can prepare accordingly! My prices are set higher so that I am not as busy and can prioritize one or two fur families at a time. If it’s a repeat family and you are willing to be flexible for the check in times, I can modify the prices to make it more fair. Almost all repeat clients are locked into the original rates from their first booking. If you do not communicate for booking or the initial meeting, I will cancel for my personal safety and to allow others to lock in their requested days and times. Please let me know. I look forward to working with you and meeting new sweet pups and kitties!
