Pet care experience

Humans are overrated. Pet time!

Since the age of 10 I have been taking care of three cats in total at my parents house! This includes cleaning out the litter box, feeding, and playing/engaging with them all while in a loving and caring environment. Additionally, I have catsat for my neighbors adorable kitty for weeks at a time. My daily visits to her house consisted of me cleaning the litter box and feeding and playing with the kitty. Although my experience with dogs is more limited, I have a true affinity for any and all animals and I feel, along with my work ethic and adeptness, these many years of taking care of cats will translate over to the dog world!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in a clients home by providing a loving and caring environment for the animal, as well as matching the energy of the pet so their needs care be met. This could include playing with the pet or going on walks when their energy levels are high, or relaxing and enjoying each others company by just chilling on the couch. Additionally, when the animal signals that they need to relieve themselves I am quick to pick up on this and will provide the animal the opportunity to do this, cleaning up after them when they are finished.

Mikaela was an excellent and conscientious first sitter for our dog Daisy. Mikayla took time to get to know Daisy and her routine, and the two seemed to bond well. Mikayla is a good communicator and kept me informed throughout her stay. I look forward to turning to Mikayla when I next need a sitter.

Mikayla is kind. understanding. and patient when caring for our pets. She naturally builds a bond with them and treats each animal as if it were her own. A person can tell she genuinely cares, always taking the time to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable.

I am writing to highly recommend Mikayla Jensen as a pet sitter. She has taken care of my cat for a couple of years and I have always been satisfied with her care. Mikayla is reliable and trustworthy. She even took the time to get to know my anxious cat before she looked after her. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and competent person to look after their pets.

Mikayla is great with animals! I know she grew up with cats and has always been active in taking care of them. But she’s also good with dogs! Whether the pet is chill or requires lots of activity, Mikayla is willing to go the extra mile to make sure the pet’s needs are taken carw of!

I highly recommend my daughter as a pet sitter. As a responsible college student, she is dependable, organized, and very safety-conscious. She has years of experience caring for our own pets — feeding them, exercising and playing with them, cleaning up after them, and giving them consistent love and attention. She is intelligent, compassionate, and truly loves animals. She is gentle, patient, and treats every pet as if it were her own. I completely trust her to provide safe, attentive, and loving care to any family’s pets
