About: I have been caring for animals my entire life as a child, wildlife rehabilitator and as a wildlife biologist. For the last year and a half I have built a very nice reputation as a dependable and loving pet sitter. I have watched dogs, cats and birds! I have taken care of many senior dogs as well as a few puppies. Needless to say I’m not afraid of a pee pad or pill bottles! I work remotely and choose my hours, meaning, I can be with your animals at all time if need be. I do not mind staying with them 24/7 while you are away. It also means you can contact me any time that you need too. I live on a dead end road with very low traffic and have a very large yard. We will also go for nice walks down to the river where our road ends and a trail leads out to the river. My two main borders often do not want to leave or they want to come back home with me. It’s a great spot for dogs, whether they need to be leashed or not. If I am staying at your house I will always follow their normal routine. I really like for my clients to leave a note with food instructions, treat instructions, medicine, and daily routine. I also like to have a just incase number (neighbor or family member in the area) and the veterinarian. This is all just incase of an emergency and to make sure your pet stays safe and has the best time possible with me.
About: I have currently been working with a boarding facility for 9+ years in the last 3 years I have been a dog groomer! I have a chocolate lab, mini doodle, cat and 2 chameleons. I love every animal like it’s my own. I am usually working 9am-3:30ish pm with Wednesdays and Saturdays off! If I am taking care of your pet they will go out or for a walk and fed before I leave and I will go right back to them as soon as I am done! I care for every pet like they are my own, I will do what ever you need me to do. I never take my eyes off of them!
“Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing. She stayed at our house with our 3 kitties while we were on our honeymoon and we would not have been able to enjoy it without her. She noticed some issues in one of our kitties and let us know, took him to the vet, called us from there, and even went and got his medicine and started him on it. Could not recommend her enough!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have a brand new home at the end of Taylors Creek on the water. When I built I had my work in animal rescue in mind. I have LVP flooring, doors to a private screened porch and top deck with a dog pool that locks or they can head down to a fenced in back yard. I do allow my dogs in the bed but I respect the rules of home as well. I am local and know all the dog hot spots. I am more than happy to bring your dogs for a visit while you are here on vacation or you are welcome to come to my home to visit. The horses of shack stand in front of my home for an extra bonus. If your dogs needs a bath I can do that to as I have hot and cold dog washing station. I work from home 24/7 and if I leave I normally take the crew with me. I also can crate if you so desire and have several. I have a fenced in yard. Two security gates. Cameras. I respect all rules from your home. I have every size crate you would need. I have a lovely collie that loves having friends over. I work from home and have regular dog play dates. We always are chasing a ball or frisbee and the dogs live going on boat rides. I have cameras, fenced in yard and dog crates so you would not need to bring anything but food. I respect owners house rules during visit.
“We really loved Christine. Not only is she a kind, loving soul, she showed a lot of attention to detail. We felt comfortable leaving our babies with her and are planning on booking again! I have no reservations about her and she did a fantastic job!!!!! She is great!”
Gloucester pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kaitlyn went above and beyond for our dogs and us! We experienced a delay in our flight back home and Kaitlyn worked with us to stay longer to ensure the dogs were well taken care of. I would recommend her to anyone looking for high-quality and very responsive pet care.
Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing. She stayed at our house with our 3 kitties while we were on our honeymoon and we would not have been able to enjoy it without her. She noticed some issues in one of our kitties and let us know, took him to the vet, called us from there, and even went and got his medicine and started him on it. Could not recommend her enough!
