Pet care experience
As a current veterinary student, I’ve developed a strong appreciation for animals and their unique needs. I’m entering my second year at St. George’s University and have already gained valuable knowledge and hands-on experience. I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant at Angel Animal Hospital, where I supported the team with patient care and learned how to handle pets in a clinical setting. Before vet school, I trained a Golden Retriever named Paddington through a program called 4 Paws for Ability from the puppy stages to become a service dog—an experience that taught me the importance of patience, understanding animal behavior, and the power of consistent, positive reinforcement. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own.

Reviews
Growing up alongside Caitlin, I have witnessed her lifelong love for animals and the great care she takes in tending to her own and others. As both a dog and cat owner, she understands the needs of each and approaches their care with attention and patience. Whenever I need someone to care for my own, Caitlin is always my first call. She is a trustworthy and responsible person that I do not hesitate to recommend as a pet caregiver.
I couldn't support and think of someone better than Caitlin Rupp for anyone’s pet. Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine affection for animals give me peace of mind. I have seen her take care of a dog named, Paddington, that she took care of and trained. Paddy absolutely adores her, and I truly appreciate how Caitlin trained him to be a service animal. I highly recommend Caitlin Rupp to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person to be left alone with their pet.
Caitlin Rupp is one of the most kind hearted and dependable people I know, and I trust her completely with my dog, Milo. She’s cared for him multiple times, and each time I’ve come home to a happy, relaxed pup. Caitlin treats Milo like her own, paying close attention to his needs and making sure he feels loved and safe. Beyond her natural way with animals, she’s also incredibly professional and thoughtful, always communicative and easy to work with. Anyone would be lucky to have Caitlin caring for their pet!
Caitlin R. is truly amazing with animals! She’s currently studying veterinary medicine at St. George’s University in Grenada and has already completed her first year, which just shows how passionate and committed she is to animal care. During college, she raised a service dog named Paddington through the 4 Paws for Ability program, helping prepare him to support someone in need, something that takes a huge amount of dedication, patience, and love. Caitlin has always had pets growing up, especially cats, and she’s been the go to person in our family when it comes to caring for animals. I would trust her with any pet. She’s responsible, loving, and genuinely connects with animals in a way that’s really special. Pet parents will be lucky to have her!
