Pet care experience

I’m an animal lover that will care greatly for your fur babies. I am a licensed veterinary assistant, and I’ve had animals of my own for 11 years. I’m 27 and work in an Animal Hospital, I offer the best care, love, and attention every animal deserves! Pets of my own: 3 cats. Availability: I work 10hr days 4 days a week. I stay overnight and can accommodate long stays as well. I no longer offer 24 hour care due to my schedule. **LONG DISTANCE STAYS** 10+ miles away is extra $8 per day (can vary if your further away or closer.) If you are looking for a trustworthy, loving, and caring sitter to assist with house and pet sitting needs look no further! Notes: I’m also open to caring birds, reptiles, and other small animals. I have experience and have owned all of the above. I will also accommodate farm animals as well. I look forward to meeting you and your babies and answering any questions you may have. *References available upon request. Thank you for your consideration. 🐈 🐕 🐾 ❤️

Mikayla did exactly what I needed of her. She dropped in and let Ruby out to pee, took her on a walk, played with her while she was on the walk, sent me pictures of her playing and Ruby laying down at home after she took her back. She made sure Ruby went back out to potty and gave her some snacks and water. She did everything I had asked of her and more. She even double checked with me that Ruby didn’t need anything else I might’ve forgot before she left as I am away from home until tomorrow. Great job

Mikayla always arrives promptly and greets our pups, especially when Bernie becomes anxious about us leaving. We enjoy the photos that she sends during her stay.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
