Friendly and caring lover of pets!
Pet care experience
My family has owned dogs since I was very young and I have been a caretaker for our dogs for many years. My parents currently have a puppy and an older dog whom I watch and stay with often. I have experience with pet sitting, potty and crate training, dog walking, feeding pills to both cats and dogs and caring for pets of all ages. I have also have a cat of my own. I have been pet sitting on Rover for about a year and a half, and in that time have done overnight stays, day visits and walking. Please reach out with any questions! :)

Maykala was wonderful with Josie!! So happy with the great care she provided. Josie has a lot of energy and I can tell her needs were met with all of the fun walks she had a couple of times a day!! Thank you, Mikayla!!
Mikalya did a great job dog & house sitting while we escaped Maine snow for Mexico sands. Our boy was obviously well cared for, as was as our home. Truly appreciate Mikalya and will hire again.
Mikayla watched our dog and cat for the past few days and did an amazing job! You can tell she loves animals and where this was my husband and I’s first time leaving our dog in the care of someone we didn’t previously know she made us feel very comfortable about the situation and kept us updated while we were away with texts and pictures! We look forward to booking with her again in the future!!
Thankful to have found a sitter that could commit to a week but after coming home, found a lot of little issues that kept adding up. Our pup was not her usual self but was very jumpy and cowered a few times with our normal playful gestures. Our cat took a few days to start purring again and he usually purrs non stop. Someone had slept in our bedroom and left perfume scent on the bedding/comforter and I am sensitive to scents. Things were taken out of the cabinets around the house (kitchen and bathroom) and not returned to their spot. The counters were left a mess with crumbs and sticky build up. Our nonstick pans were ruined with burned crusty food built up on them and will likely need replacing and our vacuum wouldn’t suck anything up and required repairs. I will say that our flight home was severely delayed and Mikayla was willing to stay later with extra payment but we appreciated the flexibility. Likely will not hire via rover again though after this experience.

I have a two year old car who I care for, feed, play with throughout the day and tend to his medical needs. My parents have dogs whose care I have been greatly involved with, including a one year old puppy who I have helped raise and train.

A typical day
I love to give dogs lots of pets and belly rubs, take them on walks around the neighborhood, play fetch and tug-of-war, and make sure to keep to feeding schedules! I have lots of experience with senior dogs as well. I also love to play with kitties and give them lots of love.
