Pet care experience

Pets' mental health over everything

I've lived with pets (dogs, cats, turtles, etc) for the past 20 years!! (I can't believe it's been that long). I absolute love pets and have a dealt with pets of a diverse range of personalities and breeds. From boston terriers, English Bulldogs, Labrador Retrievers, Chihuahuas, Yorkies, Short-hair cats/Long-haired cats and more!! I love the variety of personalities a pet has so I am ready with open arms to take care of any type of dog or cat and will be cognisant of all their quirks. <3 I am studying for a career in medicine so I am well-versed in looking out for medical issues that may arise and also know how to administer medicine. I am friendly and responsible too! :) I also live with a responsible pet owner! My partner Fred has experience watching dogs as well: please see his profile here: https://www.rover.com/sit/fredd29365

Caitlin did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Silky, for the night. She was very communicative, sending me updates and photos that showed Silky was comfortable and enjoying herself. Caitlin’s attention to detail and genuine care for Silky were evident. When I returned, Silky was happy and well looked after. I highly recommend Caitlin for anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter!

Hi Cait is a wonderful human being. She has a lot of love for all kinds of animals. She gave my dog Jet a home - when he had no where else to go. She has a chihuahua that has special needs and she takes care of that. Cait is even a vegetarian. I believe you will be able to trust Cait with your pet.

Schedule

Pet care is essential to my everyday life! I have a 10 year old cat who is living with arthritis who needs constant love and joy to help his well-being and quality of life flourish. I am a fairly early riser and late to bed so I can take your pet out for walks as frequently as needed and I love to keep pets active as it is an integral part of their mental health! I am very perceptive to what pets need and their emotions.
