Hello, I'm Caitlin! I primarily offer drop-in cat sitting visits as well as occasional dog walking/drop-in visits to clients in Somerville, Medford, and Melrose (anywhere within a ~15 minute drive from my house). I have two adorable rescue kitties, Xerxes (11 years) and Willow (7 years), who have been with me since they were ~5 months old. My childhood dog, Nimbus, a white German Shepard mix, was my best friend from ages 3-17. I loved taking her on walks through the nature preserve near my home, playing fetch, and teaching her new tricks. I adore animals of all shapes and sizes - by choosing me as your sitter or walker, you can rest easy knowing your babies are safe and well cared for! Covid-19 Safety Info: I am fully vaccinated and boosted and am able to offer both in-person or virtual meet & greets again, depending on your preference. Pet sitting / drop-in visits: I've been pet sitting in my free time for many years for both dogs and cats. Your furbaby will receive love and affection galore while you are away, including plenty of exercise for high-energy pups and kittens. I'm very good with all animals, but I have a special talent for drawing out and befriending even the most skittish or difficult kitties. I am also experienced in giving pills and liquid medications- my own cat Xerxes requires twice daily pills, and I'm skilled in quick, stress-free pilling of difficult cats. Dog walking: I am an energetic and engaged dog walker who is willing to go the extra mile to give your pup the best experience. Your pup's health and safety are my top concern - I'll treat your beloved pup as part of my own furry family and return them safely to your care. I'm also available for walking services any time of the week!
