Highlights
Pet care experience
Calm, attentive pet care 🕊️
Santa Monica–based pet caregiver offering calm, attentive, and personalized care. I grew up with large rescue dogs, a cat, and parakeets, and have years of hands-on experience caring for family pets, volunteering with shelters, and fostering. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, breeds, and personalities, including puppies, kittens, and seniors. Every visit is thoughtful, reliable, and tailored to your pet’s individual needs.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I create a calm, secure environment and carefully follow each pet’s established routines, feeding instructions, and care preferences. I pay close attention to behavior and comfort so pets feel safe, settled, and well cared for while their owners are away. 🕊️
Ratings and reviews
Caitlin was so thorough and let me know how my puppy was! She is very sweet and attentive and made sure to get his energy out before leaving :)

Caitlin is so loving with our pup and he has such a great time on their walks! It makes me feel so relieved to know he’s so comfortable with her. She’s great, we keep coming back for more!

Caitlin is the best! So caring and our dog LOVES her. we can tell he is so excited to spend time with her :)

Caitlin was amazing as she always is!!! The best!!

Caitlin was absolutely amazing with our cat and sent detailed updates and pictures every visit. 10/10 recommend her!!

Caitlin went above and beyond while taking care of my cat during my week-long trip. My cat was a bit difficult during the first visit, but Caitlin immediately communicated with me to come up with solutions so the following visits would go more smoothly. She genuinely cares about animals and wanted the best for my cat despite his rowdy behavior. Her communication, patience, and dedication made this one of the best Rover experiences I’ve ever had, even with the initial challenges. I would 100% hire Caitlin again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter!
