Lifelong pet owner, animal advocate
Pet care experience
⭐ New Clients: I require at least 14 days notice AND a meet and greet prior to accepting any requests. This policy is to ensure that I am a good fit for your pet and for your family. I want to do everything in my power to set us up for success! ☀️ Daycare: I do NOT host day care in my home. I will come to your house and watch your pup for up to 8 hours at the standard daycare rate. All of my services are offered at the clients' home so the animals can be most comfortable in their environment. 💰 Pricing: Additional fees may apply to your request if daily mileage is above 20 miles. Discounted daycare rates are available when coupled with overnight requests. 👩 About me: I am a very pet-centric person, who LOVES meeting new furry friends! I am a remote worker 100% of the time, which gives me more flexibility than an individual with a traditional job to care for your fur kids. I pride myself on keeping your animals’ routines as normal as possible so they don't stress too much while their person is away. In addition to being a Rover sitter for 7+ years, I have my own business license, carry my own liability insurance through PetCare Insurance, and I am certified by the Red Cross in Cat and Dog First Aid, and I am a Certified Fear Free Pet Sitter. My pet care experience includes volunteering at animal shelters as a caretaker, foster mom, and adoption counselor. I am an experienced senior and special needs animal sitter — I am comfortable giving oral, topical, and injectable medication, preparing specialized meals, and performing mobility exercises with your fur baby. Animals really bring out the best in me and bring me such joy to be in their presence. I will love and cherish them as if they are my own.
Reviews
Caitlin is the absolute best!! I want to give a bad rating so Watson can have her all to himself 🙃 she went out of her way to get here early so he didn’t have to be alone, sent pics every day, walked him without incident (and sometimes he’s not the easiest doggo to walk), and left my house sparkling clean when I got back stressed from a long holiday weekend. Watson and I love her and cannot recommend enough!! 15/10 our highest honor.
Caitlin is always reliable and takes such good care of our babies- even in a pinch. We love her and keep coming back to her for our pet care needs because we know she sincerely cares for them and we can trust her 💜
Caitlin did a great job checking in on our cat, Piglet, while we were on vacation. She was super responsive, gave super helpful updates, very communicative, and accommodating of Piglet's odd schedule. Highly recommend !
Caitlin is amazing! She stayed the night with my 3 dogs and cat. I knew right away at our meet and greet what an animal lover Caitlin is. Caitlin has great communication and sent pictures of my babies which we loved. I did not worry at all being away knowing my babies were in good hands. Caitlin also left my house cleaner than I left it. We will definitely want to use Caitlin again in the future if she’s available.

Information Caitlin P. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know their medical history, their likes and dislikes, how they responding to redirection, any allergies, any habits, what scares them, who their local vet is, the best way to make them feel safe and comfortable in my care.
A typical day
During overnights, your pup will enjoy an evening and morning walk, play time & snuggles! I also like to incorporate mental exercise in with the physical: whether that's the reinforcement of the training you've given your pup, or introducing new tasks and/or tricks for your pup to master. If socialization of your pup with other dogs is desired, I can arrange a play date with some doggie friends if enough notice is given.
