Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Caitlin and I can’t wait to spend time with your dog! As a high school teacher, I am patient, use positive reinforcement, and know how to handle difficult situations calmly and flexibly. As a lifetime dog owner and dog sitter, I have been actively involved in behavioral training, obedience, and therapy visits. I am quick to form a bond with every dog I meet and people are often impressed with how at ease their dogs are around me. I also have one dog of my own, a four year-old terrier mix named Sienna. Together, we like to visit the Metroparks, various dog parks around the city, and the “doggie beach.” In my free time, I also enjoy grooming her, baking homemade dog treats, and generally loving all over her. Contact me to schedule an initial consultation so that I can meet you and your dog and discuss a plan of care which best fits your dog’s needs.

Thank you, Caitlin! The photo of Bowlby enjoying his walk made my day. It makes me happy knowing he had fun.
If you are searching for the most loving, caring, and responsible person to care for your pet, Caitlin is the answer! She has grown up with dogs all of her life (Miniature Schnauzer, Kerry Blue Terrier, and Whippets) and now is a rescue mom for her own sweet Sienna. She definitely has a soft spot for all pets! Caitlin has also had experience in dog training classes with several of her dogs and enjoys working with them. She even volunteered at a local nursing home for several years, bringing her beloved Diamond to visit the residents weekly. Not only is she caring and loving, but she is very detail-oriented and responsible in everything she does. Anyone would be fortunate to have Caitlin care for their pets. She'll care for your pets as if they were her own!
Caitlin too amazing care of my dog, Millie. We was reliable and communicative, which put me at ease all day! I will continue to use her services to help with check-ins for Millie.
Caitlin is the most professional, responsible, and considerate dog walker I have ever worked with. My dog, Bowlby, requires a lot of attention and Caitlin cares for him in ways that often exceed my expectations. She not only takes Bowlby on a long midday walk, but she also spends time teaching him to respond reliably to basic obedience commands. While other dog walkers will expend your dog's energy playing fetch, Caitlin will exercise your dog's mind. For example, the other day I came home from work and my dog knew how to "speak" on command. She taught him this trick in just over a week, so I fully expect him to be calling me at the office next month :) I can honestly say that my dog is a much happier and healthier pup the more time he spends with Caitlin!
