Hi! My name is Mckenzie, and I’m so excited to be part of the 9 to 5 Pets family!

Originally from Maryland, I grew up surrounded by animals and spent many years riding and caring for horses, which helped spark my lifelong love of animals. I currently attend Jacksonville University, where I’m pursuing a degree in Public Health with a minor in Psychology. When I’m not studying, you can often find me volunteering at the Jacksonville Humane Society, where I help care for cats and continue learning more about animal behavior and welfare.

I have over two years of pet sitting experience and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. Whether it’s a high-energy pup, a senior pet needing extra patience, or a shy kitty who prefers a gentle approach, I love getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I’m also experienced with administering oral medications, overnight care, and maintaining each pet’s unique routine.

At home, I share my life with my rabbit, Munchkin, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to care for many different animals, including horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, gerbils, hamsters, and fish. I truly believe that every pet deserves individualized attention, compassion, and lots of love.

I joined 9 to 5 Pets because I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and to give pet parents peace of mind, knowing their pets are in safe and caring hands. I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful pets!
