Relax while your furbaby is with me

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Kaitlin. I’ve been around and have had dogs my whole life. Since 2017, I have done pet sitting & dog walking. I love getting outside with my clients dog; playing in the backyard or going on walks, I love it all! I was also a furbaby foster momma and volunteer with Rescue One, which I fostered for just over a year. I really loved taking in the animals that aren’t picked first, loving on them well and helping them find their forever home. I have excellent experience with senior dogs which includes administering medication, caring for multiple blind dogs, as well as dog with high anxiety. I have past experience with special needs dogs as well including those with epilepsy and seizures.

Very satisfied with her I would highly recommend her. I had to give her a short notice because my pet sitter had an accident and could not watch cloud and then cloud is not completely trained winner in other households and she made sure he had a bath and all of his things that were cleaned up. She kept me posted on how he was doing with pictures and text. There was a horrible rainstorm, which really hampered cloud from being able to go out and she made sure he came home clean. Thank you Kaitlin so much. I will not hesitate to use her again in the future.

No complaints. Kaitlin was very nice and easy to work with and our puppies seemed to take to her and her home right away. Thank you Kaitlin ❤️

Kaitlin was amazing! We booked last minute with her and she was so accommodating. She was very attentive to Ruthie's eating and sleeping habits, and did a great job providing lots of opportunities for exercise and fetching. Her home was lovely and a nice fenced yard to play in. We would highly recommend Kaitlin!

Safety, trust & environment

Our home is fully fenced. If the weather is nice, we play a lot in the backyard. We love going for walks and being active. But we also love couch snuggles and relaxing. I have a 12 year old daughter who loves to help and loves all animals as well as a two year old. They both understand safety precautions for high stress pets and desires to be a best friend to all fur-babies. My personal dog is a 20ish pound pug. He loves to lay by the window and watch outside. He is the best doggy host and loves having friends over to play. He actually gets sad on the rare occasion that I don’t have a booking.

Information Kaitlin M. would like to know about your pet

Before booking a service for any animal, I would prefer a meet and greet. This ensures your pet is familiar with who I am and sees I am safe. This also ensures you’re comfortable with me and I can answer any questions you may have in person. If there are any medications or special instructions for your pet, the initial meet and greet is the place to walk me through that.

A typical day

We will go on walks in my neighborhood or your neighborhood (depending on the type of service scheduled). I live walking distance to two parks and love taking fur-babies there often. If the weather is icky, I love finding things indoors that will give the pet playtime. My yard is very large and provides lots of space outside for play. I also have a second living room that I have converted into a dog room. It’s a safe and cozy space for the fur babies to play inside and sleep. There is adequate room for the kennels for the dogs who do kennel as well as a large, cozy couch. I also have a camera in there to keep a close eye on all things.
