Safety, trust & environment

I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment designed to be a comfortable and safe environment for dogs. There are multiple cozy, high-quality dog beds throughout the space so pups always have options for relaxing and settling in. I also have a window perch overlooking Main Street, which dogs love for observing the world go by. My town is very walkable and dog-friendly, with several nearby businesses that welcome dogs—perfect for safe walks, enrichment, and (of course) quality people-watching. My own dog is extremely gentle and well-socialized—best described as a “cat in a dog’s body.” She is calm, respectful of other dogs’ space, and enjoys playful interactions when invited, making her a great companion for visiting pups.

Information Mika S. would like to know about your pet

I don’t have any breed preferences. The more information you can share about your pet(s), the better care I can provide. Every dog is unique, with their own routines, preferences, and personalities. Helpful details include: • Favorite spots they enjoy being scratched or pet • Daily routine and activity level • Feeding schedule and meal instructions • Treat preferences, limits, and any restrictions • Favorite activities, toys, or enrichment • Any triggers, sensitivities, or behaviors to be aware of (including reactions to certain dogs, people, or situations) Sharing these details ahead of time helps ensure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and happy during their stay. 🐾

A typical day

We’ll enjoy regular walks around the neighborhood, or I’m happy to follow a specific route if your dog has a favorite. Throughout the day, we’ll play plenty of games to keep your pup mentally and physically stimulated. One of my favorites is Hide & Seek—dogs love using their noses and problem-solving skills to find things! It’s a great confidence booster, especially when paired with positive reinforcement like praise, belly rubs, or approved treats. If you have a yard, we can also run around, play fetch, or burn off extra energy with extended playtime. My goal is to fill your dog’s day with fun and engaging activities so they stay happy, relaxed, and fulfilled—helping them eat well, sleep well, and feel completely at ease while you’re away.

Trusted Care For Every Pup

Pet care experience

I’m very attentive and careful with dogs—I have a wonderfully silly pup of my own, so I understand how curious (and mischievous!) they can be. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I’ll make sure they’re well-fed, well-cared for, and having plenty of fun while they’re with me. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from a sassy medium-sized Terrier to an extremely large, goofy Malamute/Husky. I’ve also regularly cared for my cousin’s Yorkies and currently share my home with a very loved Coonhound/Terrier mix. Because of this, I’m comfortable adapting to different energy levels, temperaments, and routines. I truly believe dogs deserve patience, affection, and consistency. I go above and beyond to ensure every dog in my care feels loved, secure, and never overlooked—just like they would at home. I work from home during the following hours, which allows me to provide frequent attention, potty breaks, and supervision: Monday–Friday: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM

Mica was great sitting my two dogs this weekend. She was on time for the walks and shared my dogs pictures and adventures.

Mika is experienced, and very comfortable with Jax. Mika has a professional character. I feel secure with my trust in Mika to care for Jax.
