Looking for dogs to hang out with!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Caitlin! I'm a 25 year old dog lover, as well as a substitute teacher currently working on getting my teacher certification to teach history! I've been dog sitting for 7 years and have cared for both big and small dogs, as well as elderly dogs and puppies! I rescued my dog parker when he was only 7 weeks old (he's 6 now)! I've also cared for dogs with mild aggression toward strangers and separation anxiety. While volunteering at a dog daycare and boarding facility, I've learned alot about dog behavior. I provide care based on the needs of you and your dog! Flexibility, love, care, and attention are all things I can offer in a customizable way that fits the needs of you and your pet!
Reviews
Caitlin was an amazing asset to our family. She would let my elderly dogs out to go potty then would take my puppy. She was always prompt, was great with communicating and you could always tell when Zoey had seen her. She went out of her way to show compassion to my family when we lost our elderly dog. She is an amazing person and anyone would be lucky to have her walk their babies.
Whenever you are inviting a stranger into your home and relying on that person to take care of your puppy, it can be a very scary and stressful decision. A friend of the family recommended Caitlin after she watched their dog and two cats for a weekend. After meeting Caitlin and seeing how much passion and love she has for animals, I completely trust her in my home and with my puppy. She isn't just a loving dog walker/sitter, she is a good person. She shows my puppy so much love and she has even helped train our puppy. I would recommend Caitlin to anyone and everyone. The only problem with Caitlin visiting our puppy is that he does not want her to leave. He loves when she visits. Sometimes I think he loves her more than he loves me :(
Caitlin started watching my then 11 week old mini golden doodle puppy in my apartment while I was at work during the day, and was great! She's wonderful with puppies and dogs in general! Being a nervous puppy mom, she was patient and accommodating with all my instructions and always followed them as much as possible (since puppies are just a handful regardless). During the 3 weeks she was sitting for Remy, she was willing to help out any way she could, even graciously cleaning up his "accidents"! Caitlin would also text me regular detailed updates throughout the day and kept lines of communications wide open. Remy loved her, and I was able to focus on work knowing that he was in good hands and that I could text her whenever to find out how he's doing. Trusting a stranger with entering and leaving my apartment when I'm not present is not easy, but Caitlin was extremely trustworthy! She never made me feel like I had anything to worry about, and she was very respectful of my space. Everything was clean and was exactly how it was when I left my place. I would highly recommend Caitlin for your dog sitting needs, and will definitely get her to watch Remy again in the future!
Caitlin is so attentive and on top of everything. She goes the extra mile and also helped trained my puppy. She made the transition of getting a dog so much easier for me. She really is informed and truly cares about animals!
