This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 5 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I've had a lifelong passion for animals, and I've been caring for pets for over 5 years, including experience with everything from playful puppies to senior cats that need additional care and attention. I'm a certified pet first aid provider, experienced in administering medications and managing special needs for a variety of animals.

There's no way to adequately describe how caring and thorough Makayla and her son A. are when they care for your pets. They went above and beyond what was asked - feeding my two guinea pigs and one dog for four days, making sure they had clean water, letting my dog out in the backyard, playing with and entertaining all three animals for hours each day, sending me updates (texts, photos, videos). I can't recommend Makayla enough. She's the absolute gold standard in pet care.
