Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly with years of experience!!
As a dog mom for many years, I know that having a dog sitter you trust is super important. Being away from home can be nerve-wracking for the furrbaby and their parent. I have 7 wonderful years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes (some with past trauma and anxiety). You can trust that your dog will get the love, care, and attention they need!

Ratings and reviews
I always ask for Caitlin! She is the most dependable and kind pet sitter I could imagine. She’s very good at loving on the animals and giving them everything they need to stay happy and healthy. You can’t go wrong with her.
Caitlin is the best!!! She’s so good with dogs and is willing to do whatever it takes to make your pup happy and comfortable. My Lillie didn’t want to come home! 10/10. Will book again :)

My dog had a wonderful time on her walks with Caitlin! She took lots of pictures and gave Pepper little nibbles of treats during her walk. I will definitely book Caitlin for walks again!

Caitlin was the absolute best with our puppy! She gave us such peace of mind while being away. She was able to send us pictures and information throughout the stay, and went above and beyond what we could have ever expected of the love and care for our puppy! I absolutely cannot recommend her enough!

Caitlin was great with our cat Yoshi. We used her services for 3 drop in visits while we were out of town. She was very thorough and demonstrated love and care for our little guy. We appreciate her and strongly recommend her services!
She does amazing with my big dog who has plenty of learning to do. Would highly recommend.

Schedule
I typically wake up at around 7:30 am take your pupper out to use the fire hydrant, then provide fresh food and water during breakfast time. After working from 9am-3pm I will walk them around Downtown Mount Vernon. After water and treats, I'll usually play fetch, tug-o-war, or run around with them if they're in the mood for playtime. After more relaxation, while I run errands (house chores, etc.), I take your dog out to relieve themselves before the evening routine (playing, working from home, preparing dinner). I take them outside one more time before bed, and that completes a full day in the Rowe House.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for your pet according to your preferences. Here at the Rowe House, we typically allow pets to nap on the couch and hang out with us while we work at home. I do have a Corgi (Monty) who loves other dogs and have a pretty careful routine with him, so I highly respect any owner that has very strict or more laid-back preferences for their pups. When bathing or clipping your dog's nails, I use positive reinforcement and desensitization techniques. These include distracting them with treats, encouraging/praising them with treats, and peanut butter. I do require the dog to have all vaccines up to date for bathing and nail clipping. Whether or not I can provide these services will also depend on your dog's comfort and anxiety level.

A typical day
When weather permits, I love to take your dogs to get some exercise around beautiful downtown Mount Vernon, OH. Places I usually walk them include the neighborhood, dog fountain, Ariel Foundation Park, and the Kokosing Gap trial. On rainy, chilly days, I give them a warm blanket and indoor activities, such as tug-o-war.
