1. Mikayla D.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my unwavering dedication to the well-being of each pet. I have experience in providing compassionate care for senior dogs, making sure they are comfortable and happy. My love and respect for animals drive me to go above and beyond to meet their needs. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Every morning, I start by feeding them followed by a walk or playtime to ensure they get exercise. Throughout the day, I make sure they have fresh water and check on them regularly to ensure they are comfortable and happy. In the evenings, I spend quality time with them, reinforcing training and providing affection. On weekends, I often take them on longer walks and outing. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I stick to their usual routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I ensure they are fed on time, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise through walks and playtime. I also provide lots of affection and attention, and I am diligent about cleaning up after them to keep the home tidy. Additionally, I keep an eye out for any signs of health issues and provide any necessary medications or special care as instructed by the owner.

I have always helped take care of them. I hope to hear from you soon! I am free most weekdays and weekends in the evening and early mornings.
