Veterinarian

I’m a veterinarian looking for any and all animals to love on and cuddle with in my free time! I specialize in small animals and exotics (dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, geckos, turtles, basically anything you can have as a pet). I’m extremely flexible with my schedule and owners needs as I have worked in doggie day cares, vet hospitals, boarding facilities, and personalized pet sitting for over 12 years. My home is big enough for my dog and any other pups that want to come and play with him. My yard is spacious and fenced in but I have no problem taking them on walks! I have such a love and passion for animals and want to give them the best care they deserve while you’re away!

Drop-In Visits • Oct 08, 2023

Mikayla was wonderful! We were going on a day trip and have a diabetic dog who needs to be fed and given insulin at a specific time. She came and met our two pups beforehand and was very sweet and great with communication. I knew they’d be in great hands with her. It was so nice having peace of mind while we were away for the day and I definitely plan to use her again! Thank you Mikayla!

Michayla took good care of our two large dogs that we left for a week. we were getting daily updates, dogs look healthy and happy, the communication was prompt and flowless. i think we'll be using this service again in the future. alex

Mikayla was outstanding! This was my first time ever leaving my babies with anyone and I was extremely anxious. Mikayla eased my mind before I left them by allowing me to visit her home and let my babies become familiar with her, her fur baby, and her home. She also eased my mind after I dropped them off by communicating with me daily and sharing pictures of them. I will definitely reach out to Mikayla in the future!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a dog of my own who loves other animals and is always willing to play! I also have a fenced in yard where they can go whenever they would like. My furniture can be used as a safe space for them to nap and relax too. I always respect clients boundaries and guidelines for their fur babies, whether it is in my own home or their home.

Pets

A typical day

I am extremely involved with the gym and sports so I love being outside. I like to do my walks according to your dogs needs meaning if they turn around to go inside right after they do their business then great, but if they just want to keep exploring for an hour or two I would love that as well! I also would love to take them to dog parks or puppy play dates with my fellow colleagues dogs if the client wishes for them to be socialized.

I have absolutely no breed or species preferences as I am here to help and love any animal. Knowing their eating/ walking/ sleeping schedule, any medications, attitude/ temperament with other people or animals, what they like and don’t like, etc will help me be the best care taker for them as every animal is different.
