Happiness = Animals!

Hello all pet lovers and owners. I have a life time's experience with animals as I grew up in a family with cats and dogs from the time I was born so I am familiar with the kitten and puppy stages as well as the elderly/disabled cats and dogs. I have dogsat and catsat for about 15+ families in the past where I grew up. I dogsat the same pets over Christmas break and over spring break so I'm hoping to make these next holiday breaks not as lonely. I moved to Boise for college. I am an alumni at BSU. I really do miss my family dog so pet sitting would really help me and help you. Animals are what make me most happy so having a job that envolves hanging out with them and caring for them is ideal to me. I do have experience with giving medications, changing doggie diapers/pads, and dealing with many different types of personalities, ages, or disabilities. I love to walk dogs to give myself exercise and to help them stay healthy. I am willing to do any odd job that involves animals. I especially love kittens and cats because I don't often get to catsit. Fun fact: I have catsat for a savannah cat named Kiwi. Also, I have AED/CPR/First Aid training for humans but I do have knowledge on how to save an animal who may have a heart attack or choke on their food. I find this important for me because I would always want to be prepared if I needed to save someone's animal. As you can see, I need pet sitting jobs as much as you need me so feel free to message me. Thanks! I do work from home but am looking for a way to break up my day through breaks. I have a flexible schedule so my ability to check on your pets is not impacting my professional life. I make sure to respect your home and treat it how you instruct me to do so. I don’t mind cleaning or doing the litter/dog poop if you ask me to do so. I offer any service related to pets so ask and you shall receive!

We hired Mikayla a number of times when we were going to be gone for extended periods and were unable to take the dogs with us. She came over multiple times throughout the day to let our two dogs out and play with them. She even texted me a number of pictures to show us how happy they were. Mikayla is extremely dependable, trustworthy and loving towards our four legged family members. We highly recommend Mikayla as a loving dog care giver.

Mikayla is a very responsible dog sitter. She individualizes care depending on the owners preferences. My #1 choice when we need a dog sitter! Worryfree care while away!

Mikayla has been so great with my two pups! She always sent me updates and pictures when I was away! One of my dogs is very fearful and Mikayla has been great about going slow with her and building her trust; walks with Mikayla have made a huge impact on my pups ability to interact with new people! I would recommend anyone who is new to Rover to trust Mikayla, because nothing matters more to me than my pups, and she makes sure to show me that she feels the same way! I wouldn't pick a different sitter! Thank you Mikayla!

I do not have an preferences. I do have cats in my home so the dog would have to be comfortable with cats. I would like to know their ability to walk or jump as I realize most elderly dogs have trouble with arthritis or joint function.
