Safety, trust & environment

I speak with each client about their pets needs (i.e. how often do they need to go to the bathroom, is this monitored) and work with the client to understand how best to care for their pet. I've worked with lots of different families and understand that each pet is different!

Exceptional, as always. There is no one I would trust with our house and dogs over Mikayla. She’s always our #1 pick when we need a sitter.

Mikayla was fabulous! so sweet and communicative. Came home to a clean house and happy dogs. I would definitely recommend and I will certainly be using her again.

Mikayla was a fantastic sitter for our German shepherd husky mix! She provided daily updates, asked good questions at our meet and greet and has a very warm demeanor. We trusted her with our beloved boy and our home while we were out of town for a week. Our house was super clean when we returned home. I’d highly recommend Mikayla. Thank you!

Mikayla took such great care of Nico and our home while we were on an international vacation. We had a ‘meet and greet’ with Mikayla and she was very friendly, communicative and clear about her needs and expectations. She asked lots of questions and left us feeling Nico, and our home, were in good hands, allowing us an stress-free vacation. She was very communicative while we were away, and sent plenty of photos and short videos to keep us updated. We would wholeheartedly recommend Mikayla to care for your pet and will certainly book with her again in the future.

Mikayla is the ABSOLUTE BEST! Super communicative, it is obvious that Marlowe feels loved and cared for while I'm away (no adjustments to when I return so super appreciative of all Mikayla does) and the house is in perfect order.

Mikayla was very communicative throughout our time away and took great care of our pets. She left the house in great condition and did her dishes and laundry. My pets were well taken care of and I would recommend her to anyone.

Schedule

I work remotely most of the work week and I'm able to care for pets throughout the day (cuddles, meals, bathroom breaks). With time for walks before/after work!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Mikayla can host up to 1 pet per night
I prefer to work with pets that are leash trained and bathroom trained. I can work with older dogs, and walks can be longer or shorter depending on the need.
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.
