Lover of ALL dogs in ALL sizes!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Caitlin and I have been around dogs my whole life. I am a dog mom to a Terrier Mix currently but have had dogs of all sizes throughout my life. I have had several cats, an English bulldog, beagle mix, a Great Pyrenees, and a pit husky mix previously. Currently I am offering dog walking services, drop in visits, doggy day care, and overnight dog sitting! I have experience walking and caring for all sizes of dogs as I would help my family care for our dogs growing up and have been a dog sitter for others. I can take care of anything for your baby, as long as I am informed of what exactly they need and how they need it, even if it is medicinal treatment. I am also a people person, I love to meet new people and make new friends. I am a great communicator and respond to messages quickly. I would love to set up meet and greets for my fur baby and myself to meet you and your fur baby to ensure we are all comfortable with working together! The most important thing to me is the comfort of you and your pets!

Caitlin was so great taking care of my pup. She has a care and compassion for animals that makes her special. She and her bf have a nice, pet-friendly home, and their dog, Rascal, is the perfect companion to dogs staying away from home - he was very gentle, sweet, and welcoming to me and my pup. Caitlyn understands animals, and I highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs. Thanks again!

Luca needed medication and healing spray for a wound while I was out of town, and Caitlin did a fantastic job!

Information Caitlin S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the temperament of dogs before I work with them. For example, are they very active with high energy, or do they get anxious in new places and environments. This will be helpful so I know what kind of environments will be most comfortable to your pet! I also think an important piece of information to know is if they get along with other dogs and children. I have one dog at home that isn’t always playful and usually keeps to himself. I have no children but there are usually children at parks and other public places so I think this is good information to know for the best experience for myself and your pup.

A typical day

I take dogs on walks around the neighborhood. I love to play fetch and tug of war with them as well. The most important thing is to let them expend their energy and give them the attention they need. For drop ins I am willing to do just about anything! I will feed them and play with them as well as anything else you may need me to do for your furry friend while I pop in and check on them.
