Loving home with room to roam!
Pet care experience
I've had a close connection with animals my entire life. I know it can be challenging to find someone you trust to take care of your pets in a loving and caring manner; while your dog is staying with me it will absolutely be treated like a member of the family! I have one dog at home. Biscuit is ~10 years old, friendly, affectionate, and easy to get along with. We have a partially fenced-in back yard, and take her out for walks daily. She is up-to-date on all vaccinations and has regular vet check-ups. The pups will always have water, and we feed Biscuit each day in the morning and evening. She always has access to her crate (she loves it), is allowed on the couch, and has a dog bed in our bedroom. We treat our furry guests like our own, and they would do all of the same activities as Biscuit throughout the day. If your pup has to be crated when we leave, we make sure not to be gone for too long.
Reviews
It was nice of Cait to watch Stella with a short notice for an overnighter. Stella seemed to have had some evening anxiety either from the new surroundings or she may have been alone? We have never had that with her before? Either way it was nice of Cait to watch Stella for the night. Much appreciated,!
I had an amazing experience with Cait watching my husky Nickoli! She was incredibly attentive and caring towards him, and I could tell she genuinely loves animals. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages, which made me feel at ease knowing he was in great hands. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Nickoli!
Lizzy, our labradoodle, had a wonderful time with Cait and her family. Lizzy was on baby watch, played with kids, played with the other dogs and enjoyed cuddle time with Cait and her husband. We know Lizzy felt so loved and cared for while we were gone on vacation. Cait sent pictures and updates while we were away. Thank you for the TLC.
Everything went smoothly with Cait! Our pup came back happy and had a great time playing with Cait’s dogs. Would recommend!

I have a partially fenced yard and a pup to keep your dog company! They have free roam of the house, unless they are not house broken or potty trained, then we keep them downstairs. They have access to water at all times, and will be on their usual feeding schedule. We like to take pups on walks, permitting they are good on leashes, and love snuggling them like our own. Let me know the commands you use and I’ll work with them throughout the day. Overall, your pup will be loved, cared for, exercised, and have a blast playing with us while they’re in our home!

Information Cait C. would like to know about your pet
*We request that anyone booking with us provide a photo of their dog’s vaccination records and ask that you let us know what medicine your dog is on for heart worm/fleas/etc. Biscuit is up to date on all shots and take monthly dewormer; I am happy to provide documentation upon request. Please let me know BEFORE booking if there are any medical conditions - chronic or short-term - that I should know about (e.g., diarrhea, anti-anxiety meds, doggie diaper, etc.). If I am notified of medical conditions at drop off, or I discover a condition previously undisclosed, I reserve the right to decline the booking and/or keep/increase the rover fee on the spot. In the case that there is a medical condition discovered while in my care, I will take the proper steps to seek vet treatment at the owner’s expense and retain the rover fee. *The rate for boarding or doggie daycare for puppies will vary based on the pups age and how many times we have hosted the dog. In general, younger dogs will cost more to board due to the significant time expenditure I will spend with/on the pups (regular potty breaks, playing, training, etc.) and the potential for furniture/house damage due to young dog behaviors. Please make sure I have the following information about you and your pup: Vet contact information Emergency contact information ideas I am unable to get ahold of you. What is your preferred method of communication? Does the dog get along with other dogs and children? Does your pup have any behavioral issues or quirks that you would need me to focus on? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule? If so, what is it? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? Any things your pup is scared of? *Your dog MUST not be aggressive in ANY way, and MUST get along with children for us to accept them into our home.*
A typical day
I love taking our pup and other fur babies on walks around our neighborhood or in the woods! We play fetch and tug of war. Pack any toys or treats your dog loves and I'll be sure to include them (and I always keep new tennis balls stocked for rover stays)!
Services
Cait can host
Availability
I’m currently in class full-time, but only have to go in part-time, so I am home plenty during the week. We have a 10-month-old baby, so your pet MUST be kid-friendly and safe around infants, though I would not keep my son unattended around your animals either way. If your pup has shown aggression towards anyone or anything, we WILL NOT accept them as a rover. We have an infant and that requires only non-aggressive dogs. Your pup will have an awesome time hanging out as our guest and I'll be dedicated to making your animal’s experience safe, fun, and memorable!
