Dog Love Available For Pet Sitting!
* Fully vaccinated and boosted! I’m kind, determined, and energetic! I’m crazy about dogs and will shower your pet with love and affection. I truly do love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I love providing a home-away-from-home for animals while their parents are away. I’ve been pet-sitting since high school, and in addition to that extensive experience, I worked at an animal shelter in my youth. Currently, I volunteer with a local dog-rescue organization, Best Friends NYC. Being a friend, guide, and helper to dogs in need has always been important to me. I’ve always had dogs in my home and have taken care of them, so I really missed that after moving to New York City by myself. Pet sitting is a great way for me to have dogs in my life, and to help owners have total peace of mind whenever they’re away. I devote lots of time to making sure that they’re content and happy, and to updating you with photos and texts to let you know how your dog is doing! I live in Hell’s Kitchen. I love the energy and the atmosphere. There are always people around, and it’s a very dog-friendly neighborhood. The river is a short walk away, and I live just ten minutes from two different dog parks. I’m also close to Central Park! And because my building has an elevator, dogs with mobility issues will be totally comfortable. I’m an actor, so when I’m not pet-sitting, I’m auditioning and performing. All this flexibility means that I can be an almost-constant companion to your pup! I love checking out local festivals and events in the city, and exploring new neighborhoods. I also love reading and classic films. You’d be hard-pressed to find a bigger dog lover than me! My life is more complete when there’s a dog in it, and I love being able to provide one-on-one play, love, and care as a sitter. I love each and every dog that comes my way--and they love my energy, warmth, and playfulness.

Second time booking Caitlin, and she was reliable, attentive, and took great care of my cat. Would definitely book her again!
Caitlin was super caring and communicative with Gucci! He’s a senior pup and she accommodated him well. We had some late night travel and Caitlin was great to work with!
Caitlin is a wonderful pet sitter! My anxious dogs always come home relaxed and at ease. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!
Thank you for helping us out last minute. Caitlin was very communicative and punctual. We were really lucky that we could work out a plan last minute. Will definitely work with Caitlin again.
Caitlin was fantastic. She was responsive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure everything went smoothly. She went above and beyond. I felt at ease knowing my cat was in good hands.
Caitlin was great! She was responsive and sent me photos and updates of my fur rascals to reassure me they were in good hands. Would recommend her and look forward to working with her in the future.

Schedule
Since I am an actor, my schedule varies but my calendar is always updated to reflect my availability! If I’m available, caring for your animal is my full time focus!

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is a top priority. I like to know what your animal is skittish about to make sure I can avoid those triggers. Any specific instructions are followed precisely!
A typical day
We’ll go on regular walks, enjoying the neighborhood and the friendly neighbors. While we’re out, we’ll go make friends at the dog park and play fetch. Back home, there will be time to cuddle and play with toys. I’ll devote time to making sure your dog feels totally comfortable in my space, but there’s never a dull moment--your dog and I will have a great time, and you’ll get lots of updates so you can join the fun from afar!
