Pet care experience

Safe, Loving & Reliable Pet Care

I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a wide range of dog breeds, from small dogs like dachshunds to high energy breeds like border collies, as well as larger dogs like German shepherds and schnauzers. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me over the years to help care for both dogs and cats, whether that meant feeding, playtime, walks, or keeping them company while they were away. I’m comfortable with puppies, small and medium sized dogs, and providing attentive care for cats as well. I focus on creating a safe and loving environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and at ease. What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I give. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they get plenty of affection, supervision, and a routine that helps them feel at home. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

Mikayla did a great job taking care of our pup. She was so sweet in every communication, gave us daily updates, and we could tell our pup was happy to stay with her. Highly recommend! Thank you!

Mikayla is definitely someone I trust to watch my dog. She provided daily updates as well as pictures to show how she's doing. She paid attention to detail and made sure she understand how to care for my dog. She's definitely someone I plan on boarding with again.

I highly recommend Mikayla as a pet caregiver. She is incredibly reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring with all animals. I’ve seen firsthand how naturally dogs gravitate toward her with trust and excitement — not only her own dogs, but also her family’s dogs and even my family’s dogs as well. She has always been patient, attentive, and loving with them, and it’s obvious that animals feel safe and comfortable in her care. Anyone trusting Mikayla with their pets can feel confident they’ll be well looked after and genuinely loved!

I can’t recommend Mikayla enough for dog sitting and dog walking! She has always had such a natural connection with animals, especially dogs. She’s incredibly patient, caring, reliable, and attentive to every dog’s needs and personality. Whether it’s going on long walks, keeping dogs active and entertained, or making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away, she always goes above and beyond. Any dog in Mikayla’s care is treated like family, and it’s obvious how much she genuinely loves animals. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and amazing with dogs, she’s definitely the person to call!

Schedule

I work remotely from home Monday through Friday, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for pet sitting during weekdays and weekends, and I’m able to take regular breaks for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. Because I’m home most of the day, pets will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and opportunities to stay active and comfortable. I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe, relaxed, and at home while you’re away. On weekends, I’m home most of the time and love incorporating walks and outdoor time on the nearby trail. If approved by the owner, I’m happy to bring dogs along for safe, enjoyable outings.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet will be cared for in a safe, calm, and loving home environment. I live in an apartment with access to a dedicated dog walking area and nearby trails for regular walks, exercise, and fresh air. Since I work remotely, I’m home throughout the day and able to provide consistent attention, supervision, and care. I have experience with a variety of dog breeds, personalities, and energy levels, as well as caring for cats, and I’m comfortable adjusting routines based on each pet’s individual needs. I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away.

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and relaxation based on your pet’s personality and routine. Since I work from home, pets won’t be left alone for long periods and will have regular potty breaks, outdoor walks, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy keeping dogs physically and mentally engaged with walks, play, enrichment activities, and lots of affection. For cats, I make sure they have a calm environment, attention, playtime, and space to feel comfortable at their own pace. My goal is to create a stress-free experience where your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.
