Pet care experience

High energy - Love to play!

I am lucky enough to have been surrounded by dogs my entire life - growing up we had a Shih-Tzu, German Shepherds, a Husky, a Gordon Setter and now my very sweet, elderly pup Mia in the house. I spent some time volunteering with the Humane Society, walking and playing with dogs in my spare time so I have quite a bit of experience with new (and sometimes difficult!) dogs. I believe in demonstrating a strong but kind presence when meeting a new dog to make them comfortable, and being as engaging and loving as possible. I can just as easily entertain a high energy puppy who wants to run around at the park for hours as I can sit and cuddle with an older dog who just wants some love and a quiet environment. I have been off the app for a few years to focus on my other work, but am excited to dive back in now that I'm in Durham :) Please do reach out to set up a meet and greet!

Our pup Arnie had a wonderful stay with Caitlin! Throughout the process and his visit, Caitlin was warm, professional, communicative and flexible. She also sent fun pictures during his visit! Arnie loved playing with Caitlin’s sweet pup Mia and came home settled and happy! We could not have asked for a more positive experience and will contact Caitlin on our next visit to the area!

Caitlin watched our two dogs while on a week long trip. She was wonderful and we couldn't recommend her more! She was professional and responsive throughout the stay. We received daily texts with pictures and could enjoy our trip knowing our dogs were in great hands! We will definitely book with Caitlin and her sweet dog Mia again :)

I love all dogs! I like to come in prepared to give your dog the best time and attention I can, so I like to know the dog's age, snack and meal regiment, any medical issues and general demeanor.
