Canine Motion Care Mobile Canine Rehab Services | Serving Maine and New Hampshire

Hi, I’m Mikaela, the founder of Canine Motion Care and a licensed physical therapist with a passion for helping dogs live their best lives. I’m certified in canine rehabilitation through the Canine Rehabilitation Institute (CCRT) and bring a unique combination of human physical therapy expertise and specialized canine training to every session. My journey in health and movement began with a Bachel

or’s degree in Exercise Science from the University of Southern Maine, followed by my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Plymouth State University. Along the way, I served in the Army National Guard—first as an enlisted soldier and later as a commissioned Medical Service Officer . That experience deepened my commitment to service, precision, and care—values that now shape my approach to canine rehabilitation. At home, I’m lucky to share life with my husband and our dog, Finley—who continually reminds me why I do what I do. I believe in treating every dog like family and supporting their people with education, empathy, and expert care. Whether your dog is healing, aging, or just needs a little extra help getting around, I’m here to guide the way with a thoughtful, hands-on approach that puts your dog’s comfort and progress first.

🐾🌟SPOTLIGHT: The Maintenance Mutt Club 🌟🐾

Emma is a 12-year-old Border Collie mix who comes to Canine Motion Care to support her mobility and comfort after a cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) tear. Given her age, her owners elected to manage her condition conservatively rather than pursue surgery—and she has been doing incredibly well. Despite her injury, Emma is ambulating near normally and continues to stay active and engaged in her daily life. Her sessions focus on maintaining and improving strength, refining gait mechanics, and enhancing stability to support long-term joint health. Emma continues to build strength and confidence in her movement. With ongoing care, she is able to remain comfortable, mobile, and enjoy her senior years to the fullest.

🤝💫 A HELPING HAND (November 2025): 💫🤝

Canine Motion Care is proud to share that Dr. Mikaela had the honor of being able to make a generous donation to Harvest Hills Animal Shelter!

This contribution was made possible through the incredible love and support of her friends and family.

This cause is especially close to Mikaela’s heart. Her beloved dogs, Finley (brown and white coonhound mix), adopted in May 2024, and Buddy (yellow lab mix), adopted in March 2016 and remembered fondly after his passing in April 2024, both came from Harvest Hills.

Buddy and Finley's stories fuel Mikaela’s passion for bringing canine rehab to her community and giving back to help more animals find their forever homes.
