Experienced Animal Care Taker

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Mikayla, I have cared for and worked with dogs and other animals for many years. I have worked at multiple doggy daycare and pet boarding facilities. This has given me experience with high anxiety and reactive animals, but also playful and energetic pets. Here, I administer play groups and make sure all of the dogs have fresh water and are well taken care of. I have given meds, seperated dog fights, and learned all about dog body language and what they’re saying through their stance. Before working here, I volunteered at an animal shelter to walk dogs and care for kitty’s. On top of this, I have experience dog sitting for my relative’s pets. I also have one crazy dog of my own. I love all kinds of animals and I believe every pet deserves the most love and attention. I enjoy playing with dogs, taking hikes, teaching new tricks and taking plenty of adorable photos along the way! I can assure you I will spend a ton of time loving and playing with your pet(s). I’m looking forward to caring for your pet(s) and I am excited to meet you! I have completed the pet CPR and first aid certification course as of 2023.

Mikayla is the absolute best! She is so sweet and patient with our high energy pup and works with her on redirecting and recall through lots of positive reinforcement. Always on time and very professional. Couldn’t be happier to have found Mikayla!

Mikayla is absolutely amazing! She has worked with my dog Lily during walks and has made tremendous improvements. Mikayla is also extremely reliable and wonderful with dogs in general. Lily gets so excited to see her everyday! I would recommend Mikayla to anyone looking for a dog walker, sitter, etc. 🙂

Safety, trust & environment

I come to the meet and greet with various questions so I can get a full understanding of what to expect and the care that needs to be provided for your pet. I make sure to follow these guidelines during the entire stay. If you decide to become a regular client, your pet’s paperwork is safely stored and ready to be used in the future. Your pet will receive lots of attention when I am there along with treats and any activities they enjoy on a daily basis.

Information Mikayla A. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences, all breeds deserve love and affection! I will need to know if there are any behavioral concerns such as; leash reactivity, barrier aggression, stranger reactivity, dog reactivity etc. for your pet(s) and my own safety.

A typical day

I love to go hiking around dog friendly nature parks. If there aren’t any parks around, I will scope out the neighborhood and plan a route accordingly. I love to bring treats along on walks and run through your pups basic commands to keep their brain active. I will provide tons of adorable pictures of your pet(s) for you to enjoy.
