A typical day

Depends on the dog, the breed, the age & their interests. One of my clients loves the snow so we would run around & play fetch. Another client loved the dog park & we would set to playdates with our other puppy friends.

Reliable local pet care taker.

Pet care experience

I have dog sat for friends and family for years. This past year I started walking dog part time on apps and have absolutely loved it. I work remotely so have flexibility in my schedule for walks before, during, or after the work day. I love animals and used to foster puppies from a local animal shelter. Naturally I am a very loving & caring person who adores time spent with animals.

Caitlin was absolutely amazing! She was quick to respond and was very flexible. We needed her at the very last minute and she came through! She took great care of our dogs and kept us updated on them. Can’t recommend her enough!

We feel so lucky to have Caitlin in our dog's lives! She is so good with them (and they are not 'easy' pups) and she takes amazing care of our home. She also always spoils our two bunnies and is beloved by all the pets!!

Caitlin was amazing! I needed a sitter very last minute due to a family situation. I was nervous to find a walker/sitter on Rover, especially since I have such a large dog but I was in a pinch and Caitlin responded right away and suggested a meet-and-greet. I met her the next day and immediately felt relieved — she has so much experience and such a positive and excitement energy about animals! I left the following day knowing Daisy was in great hands. I appreciated the sweet photos and updates of the fun walks while I was away. I came home to a happy, healthy dog and calming music playing in the background. I honestly cannot express how relieved I felt knowing Daisy was so well cared for. I’m so grateful to now have someone in town I fully trust. Thank you, Caitlin!

Caitlin was an absolute dream, and she took such great care of our 12 year old dog while we were away. We received updates and pictures after every visit, along with any other information that we should know. Our dog warmed up to her very quickly, which gave us peace of mind. We will book again if needed!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
