*note for existing clients re: availability - if my calendar shows that I’m not available during a time you need care, you’re still welcome to reach out and see if I can squeeze you in! I do that to avoid new client requests when my schedule is already mostly set, but my regulars are always welcome to reach out! 🫶 Hi! My name is Caitlin and I have been around animals my entire life! Seriously, I can’t remember a time in my life when I haven’t had at least 2 pets. I grew up with usually more like 5-7 at a time lol. I’ve been officially pet sitting for the last three years but I’ve been caring for my own animals my entire life! I have lots of experience with various situations such as elderly and high needs pets as well as with puppies, cats, kittens, chickens, fish, hamsters, birds, reptiles, farm animals, and more! I often help out with my mom’s menagerie of animals that have included dogs that are blind, epileptic, elderly, diabetic, and unsocialized. I am comfortable with dogs and pets of all sizes! I’m also very comfortable with handling lots of pets at once. I’ve helped with large untrained puppies and handled homes with 12-18 animals including dogs, cats, and chickens all on my own. Pet-care is pretty much all I do at this point and I’m 100% fully committed to it. I’m honestly on Rover to hopefully meet more regular clients and gain more experience so that hopefully I can run my own pet sitting business some day. That said, I absolutely am more than happy and able to do one-time jobs too!! I put all my energy into caring for your pets. I am responsible, reliable, communicative, prompt, and above all, caring and passionate about animals. I will treat your pets as if they’re my own and I vow to never, ever leave you or them stranded last minute if I can help it unless there’s something out of my control (if I suddenly died, lost consciousness, etc, or had privacy/safety concerns would be the only things I can think of that could cause that kind of situation.) I want to do a good job and you’ll know it! Ever since I was a little girl I’ve felt sensitive to the needs of animals. I like to believe I’m an animal empath. I treat your pets as if they’re my own and will do whatever it takes to provide a fun, safe, and enriching pet sitting experience! The first answer I ever remember having to the question: “What do you want to be when you grow up?”, is a veterinarian. Then, as I got older, I realized that a vet only sees pets on their worst days most of the time. I didn’t want to deal with the sad parts of being an animal lover. So I gave up on the idea of a career with animals for a while. But recently, within the last few years as I’ve been called to care for pets for friends and family, who then recommended me to their friends and family, and so on.. that this IS my passion and my path. I don’t know if I will be successful enough to make this my entire career but right now, I’m giving it my all. Therefore, it would mean everything to me if you chose me for the opportunity to be your pet sitter. I promise I won’t let you down.
