I will be your dog's best friend!

Pet care experience

I'm a tiny woman who loves giant dogs (and dogs of all sizes, really!). I grew up in a house with dogs, I was the godmother/on-call dogsitter for my dear friends' anxiety-prone German shepherd, and until late last year, I provided back-up care for my roommate's old basset hound who required lots of attention and walks. In 2019, I finally got a dog of my own. Her name is Rosie and she’s tiny like me but brings her share of anxiety and challenges, so I’m a very empathetic dogsitter. Special skills include but are not limited to snuggling, fetch, and accepting all the face licks. I have never had to administer injected medication to a dog, but I'm more than willing to learn.

Love Caitlin! I needed very last minute cat care for the holiday week, and Caitlin stepped up to the plate! I had never left my 7 year cat alone before, so I was a little nervous about leaving her but Caitlin was the perfect person to help out, she wrote daily updates and sent adorable pictures of playtime and feeding. She responds promptly and thoughtfully. When I had a schedule change, she was very accommodating and responsive. When I came home, I saw a clean litter box and fresh food and water dishes. And a happy cat! Very happy with Caitlin Care!

Caitlin is not only one of my favorite people in the whole world, she's one of Sadie's (my just shy of 14 year old shepherd / lab mix) absolute favorites too. Caitlin is probably the most responsible and intelligent (both intellectually and emotionally) human I know. Sadie obviously doesn't care how smart Caitlin is. What Sadie cares about is that Caitlin is fun, reliable and has a open & trusting heart. The tail-wag give her away every time. I have always felt 1000% comfortable with Sadie in Caitlin's hands. I truly cannot reccomend her enough!!! :-).

Information Caitlin G. would like to know about your pet

I absolutely *love* giant dogs, but I am rather small in stature - only 5'1" - so if you have any concerns that your giant dog might be too much for me to handle physically, please let me know or feel free to find a sitter who would be more appropriate.

A typical day

I love playing with dogs! And I like to largely let them lead on walks. It’s important to me that they feel unrushed and that they’ve gotten a lot out of the adventure.
