Longtime Pet Care Professional

Pet care experience

I have worked professionally with pets for over 8 years. I started dog walking and pet sitting during my undergraduate years at UNC Chapel Hill. In 2011, after graduation, I moved to Charlotte and started Caitlin's Tender Love & Pet Care, LLC. Please check out the Facebook page! I recently started a master's program in Counseling at UNC Charlotte, but continue to do personalized pet care for doggies Monday through Friday and pet-sitting whenever requested. I have abundant experience in basic training of puppies, socialization of all types of dogs, and pride myself on providing the best care possible to every pet I encounter. I also love fostering great relationships with pet parents through open communication and by sending pictures and videos! Many references available.

Caitlin has taken care of our two beagles for years. When we go on trips, whether it be a weekend or week long, we know they are in great hands. She loves all animals like they are her own.

Caitlin is wonderful. Not only is she knowledgeable about dogs, but she adds a factor of care that you won't get anywhere else. She's been sitting my dog for three years now and she treats him as if he's her own. She's kind, loving and patient as a human being and that trickles down into her business and how she treats animals. She take pride in her work, regularly taking pictures, videos and snapchats and sending them to me throughout the day. The peace of mind I have when I entrust her with the care of my dog is invaluable.

Caitlin is a loving, energetic pet sitter. She not only has a love for dogs, but also is well-educated in their behavior and needs. For us, Caitlin is the only non-family member/neighbor we have ever trusted with our pets, and we never regret taking the risk. Whenever we pull up to her residency, our dog is already excited, well aware of who he will be hanging out with! She also always keeps us in the loop about how he is doing with pictures, which all dog-moms know is much appreciated (since I think I miss my dog more than he misses me!). My dog comes back tuckered out from a good time, and we appreciate knowing and seeing that he really enjoys his time with her.

Caitlin has been our dog walker/whisperer/second dog mom/part of the family for almost 3 years now, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful she is with animals and how lucky we are to have her in our lives. Our dog Bear, is more excited to see Caitlin than he is to see us most of the time! She is trustworthy, reliable, and always brings Bear home exhausted and happy. She goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs she interacts with are loved and safe. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Information Caitlin S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences. I have a short client info form that I like to send to clients before I care for their pups. It gives me all the information I need about the specific pup, its needs, and its preferences.

A typical day

I absolutely love every moment I spend with dogs. I live a mile from a huge popular dog park that I frequent with pups. I have many clients that love for me to bring pups over to their fenced-in yards for doggy playgroups. I also thoroughly enjoy taking dogs on hikes. While at home, the dogs in my care get lots of play time and cuddles!
