Safety, trust & environment

I won’t be keeping any pets in my house due to my cats being skittish and wary of new friends, but when caring for your pet in your house I will follow your instructions! I can crate pets if necessary and will follow feeding, medication, and potty break schedules.

Information Caitlin O. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs your pet has or any behaviors I should be aware of! I want to make sure your pet can receive the best type of care. I don’t have experience administering medication to animals, but I am very responsible and I am more than willing to learn the appropriate way to give your pet any medication they need.

A typical day

Mental and physical stimulation are equally important. I will play with them, and I will continue working on any training that you have been teaching them. There is a nice dog park by my house where I can take them to run, play with less confinement, and interact with other animals with permission from you.

Pet care experience

I am a life-long pet owner with experience with both cats and dogs. Most of my experience in pet care comes from the last 5-6 years when my family took in three stray cats. Thanks to my cats I know how to properly handle and calm skittish animals and all the right ways to earn their trust. I am also very comfortable with the basics of pet care, including: teeth brushing, bathing, and claw trimming. I know the proper way to pick up and pet cats, and can easily gauge the mood and comfort level of any animal. Friends and family have called me an animal whisperer, and though I can’t put that on a resumé, it’s true that I love animals and have always been a caring and responsible pet owner. I hope you reach out! *Note: I am currently in between jobs, so my schedule is relatively open on the day-to-day, but this is subject to change in the future. Additionally, I can make exceptions for available days of the week/time availability if you ask.

Caitlin stayed at our house for a week with our elderly Shi Tzu. She provided daily updates and pics, and our dog was happy and content when we got home. And the house was spotless!!! We would highly recommend Caitlin and hope to use her again when we go on vacation in the future.

Caitlin was so great with our two Golden Retriever dogs. She was early upon her arrival time and sent us updates everyday with pictures. She left our home tidy and we look forward to having her over again! I highly recommend her for your housesitting needs!

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.
