Welcome to Caitlin's Pet Hotel!
Pet care experience
Hi Neighbors and welcome to our home! We have a spare guest room that is set up for your pets comfort and safety while you are away. We have a large crate if they are most comfortable there or they can spread out on the large queen bed at their leisure. Of course, they are more than welcome to join the family throughout the rest of the house, but they also have their own private room if they need time to themselves. We welcome all pets but we ask for a meet and greet first including a home visit before accepting any new guests. I have attached several photos of our home and backyard area. A little about me: I am an active woman who would love to include a furry friend on my daily walks or have them stay at my home to provide a friendly face while you're gone. I've raised dogs my whole life, including breeding labs, and board pets regularly. I'm dependable, honest, and a mature married adult in their 30s. I understand and respect dogs/pets specific needs and adapt to each, whether it's walking, playing, feeding, admistrating medication, or boarding, I approach each situation with respect and professionalism. Please let me know any specific details for your beloved family member and we will be sure to make their stay with us special. Thank you and I look forward to connecting with you soon!
Reviews
Caitlin was great! I can tell Yazmin highly enjoyed herself. She kept her active and loved. Definitely would/will book again!
Caitlin was prompt, had great communication, lovely post walk summaries, and my dogs were good and tired afterward. Would recommend!
While I felt our dogs were very happy with Caitlin’s care and our home was in good shape upon our return, we were ultimately a bit disappointed and upset about two things that occurred during Caitlin’s stay at our home. The first is that after we were very clear that our dogs should never be off-leash, we have video evidence from our ring app from our front door that on multiple occasions they were allowed to run out the front door off leash. We felt this was unsafe and irresponsible, especially after we were very clear that neither of our dogs could be off leash. Thankfully they ran out to a car and back, but both dogs were shown to be scanning the street for more interesting activity to pursue and thankfully returned to the home on their own. Second, while we never had a discussion with Caitlin about houseguests, we were upset to see that she had an overnight houseguest in our home. If it was previously discussed and/or if we had met the guy who came and stayed overnight, I think that would be one thing, but an uninvited guest to our home while we were out of town is unacceptable. We are very private people and it’s tough for us to leave our dogs home with anyone, must less someone who didn’t stop to consider that this would be inappropriate without prior approval. As I said- the dogs were happy and healthy upon our return, but we felt a bit hurt and betrayed by these findings (which we only knew about because of our Ring app) and do not feel that we can trust Caitlin for a repeat sitting.
Caitlin has been AMAZING. I had A very special case going on with my dog. I was worried about him every second I was gone. Caitlin put my mind at ease. She used great judgement when he wasn’t feeling well or anxious. 100% recommend her and I will be using her again!

My husband and I own a home with a large fenced backyard cross the street from Scenic Park Elementary School. The fence is about 4 ft high so is perfect for smaller dogs or any dog who is not a jumper. The pets can stay in our guest room, our crate, or whatever system works best for your pet. They can interact with our cat and dog or we can keep them separated. Just communicate your preferences and we will make that happen!

Information Caitlin M. would like to know about your pet
Our fence is about a 4 foot high chain link so works great for smaller dogs or any dog not prone to jumping. They will be monitored whenever they are outside.
A typical day
We go for frequent walks at the elementary school and Baxter Bog, but happy to also take the dog to University Lake Dog Park or anywhere else that they love and are familiar with. They can in and outside as much as they'd like.
