Passionate about animals
Pet care experience
We got our family dog when I was 6 years old. I have since had 2 dogs of my own. I also worked in rescue as an animal care specialist for about two years and I have volunteered with a multitude of species from chimpanzees to lions to rhinos. I’m a believer in positive reinforcement and respecting how our animal’s communicate.

Mikayla was awesome!!! She took great care of our baby while we were gone recently. Will definitely schedule again. :)
Mikayla has a great deal of experience with animals, and especially with dogs. She has worked at a dog shelter that cared for dogs that had been surrendered or rescued, she worked at the SPCA, and has worked at several other shelters for wild animals. In addition to these experiences, she has fostered a number of dogs over the years. She also spend several weeks in Africa working at Wildlife Conservation Facilities because of her commitment to, and love of animals. Her desire is to see animals loved and well taken care of. She is gifted in her ability to provide love and safety and a sense of security to the animals she interacts with, and she has a ton of knowledge about animals because of her experience and education. She is incredibly responsible, a great communicator, and a really hard worker. I would highly recommend her as a pet caretaker for Rover
Mikayla is one of the most professional animal caretakers I have had the pleasure of working with! Not only does she have a genuine love / passion for animals, which clearly comes through in her interaction with them, but actually has a degree in wildlife sciences... The first person I've run across on Rover with official qualifications to work with animals! I would absolutely recommend hiring her to help with any and all pet related jobs... You'll have peace of mind that your pets are in more than capable hands.

I am currently unemployed as I am pregnant and due in July. I would love to use my love for animals to supplement my income. It will not be full-time but my schedule is currently open and I will update with any changes.
