About Mikayla K.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and care based on their individual needs and energy levels. For cat sitting, I understand the importance of patience and creating a calm environment so cats can feel comfortable at their own pace while maintaining a clean litter box, offering attention (if wanted), and of course food/treats and water. I always follow owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, leash handling, litter box cleaning, and any special routines or preferences. Safety is very important to me, so I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors and gates, and always mindful of pets’ behavior and surroundings. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and in good hands while they’re away.

Information Mikayla K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there is any quirks about your dog that are necessary for day-to-day care or walks. I prefer small to mid sized breeds and can help encourage any training/tricks that you are currently working on!

A typical day

I make sure your dog(s) are fulfilled in mental stimulation through walks, playing, etc and also physically through plenty of fresh water and food and treats! I want to ensure a familiar routine for your dog that feels comfortable to them as well.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog lover who enjoys spending time with dogs of all breeds and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or more laid-back and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, giving medications if needed, and sticking to any instructions that help keep your dog happy and stress-free. I understand how important routine and attention are, and I treat every dog like they’re my own! I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. My goal is to make sure your dog gets plenty of care, exercise, affection, and companionship while you’re gone. I’d love to meet you and your dog(s)!

Mikayla is very responsible and dependable. She's a great pet sitter. She will take care of your pet with the same care of her own pet. She will make sure all your pet's needs are met and more. She will communicate with you to make sure you know your pet is in good hands while you're not there. Mikayla will go above and beyond to make your pet tail wagging or purring happy!
