Passionate about Pets!
Pet care experience
I have been working professionally with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments for the past five years, and I have worked with my own pets for much longer. My professional experience outside of what I offer here includes daycare handling and management, behavior evaluation, kennel work, training, and grooming. I have years of experience walking, managing, and training leash reactive dogs. Through passion, experience, and hard work, I have obtained a high level of knowledge and skill that sets me apart from many. My number one priority is ensuring a safe and fun environment for all animals, always keeping in mind their different personalities and preferences. No matter what your pet brings to the table (or backyard door), I can handle it and will always do so with patience and kindness.
Reviews
Caitlin was attentive and took great care of my two cats.
Caitlin took great care with my two cats! Highly recommend her !
Caitlin was great as always! I always appreciate the notes and photos she sends. Looking forward to booking her again
Caitlin was excellent as always, great pictures and visit notes, and she always leaves the place cleaner than she found it. Caitlin is my go-to to watch my cats.

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a sizable three bedroom apartment with my partner, our puppy, and our two cats. I have years of experience in dog daycare and pet boarding facilities, so I utilize the knowledge I've gained in order to run my home in a systematic and sanitary manner while maintaining a safe, comfortable, and homey atmosphere. The type of care that I provide depends entirely on your pet's personality. Some prefer to lay in bed all day long, and others require multiple high-energy play sessions throughout the day to be as happy as can be. Whatever they may need, I am always happy to provide!
Home
Information Caitlin A. would like to know about your pet
I am happy to accommodate pets from all walks of life. Please fill out your pet's profile and provide the following information, if applicable: Does your pet have any allergies or food restrictions? Are you and your dog comfortable with the idea and use of crates? Does your pet take any medication or have any medical conditions? Is your dog reactive in any way? What are their triggers? What is your pet's energy level?
A typical day
Your pups and I will spend each day together hanging out in the puppy-proof areas of my home and going for at least 3-4 walks per day on the nature trails near my apartment. Other activities we get up to can include puzzle/snuffle toys, flirt pole games (chase), tug of war, fetch, find, as well as some training and socialization exercises. Sometimes all they want is a nap. All dogs are different and may enjoy certain activities more than others. I utilize crates in my home, as well as a no-force policy. If your dog does not use a crate in their home, then they will not be crated in mine.
