Young Professional and a Dog Lover
Pet care experience
After fruitlessly begging my parents for a dog, I had to settle for playing with and caring for friends' cats and dogs. My past roommate had three cats that I helped take care of when she was at work or traveling. Recently, while spending time with a friend, her dog curled up on the couch next to me, something the dog doesn't do with most people. I am drawn to pets and their unconditional love, and they seem to be drawn to me. I am comfortable around cats and all sizes of dogs and yet to find a cat or dog I haven't loved. I enjoy spoiling them with attention, but respect the training desires of the owners.
Reviews
Caitlin was fantastic! I returned home to happy dogs and a tidy home. I hired her for a last minute stay to care for my two senior rescues. From our first interaction she was easy to communicate with, very responsive, flexible and attentive to all the details regarding care for my dogs and my home. She communicated with me regularly and sent me photos of my girls. I couldn’t ask for a better experience and look forward to booking her again. Thanks, Caitlin!
Caitlin is the world's best dogsitter. She cared for our dog and our home for 10 days while we were on vacation. When we returned dog was happy, content, perfectly cared for and our home was in tip top shape. Caitlin is superbly competent, reliable and well organized as well as being an exceptionally kind, caring and intelligent! We recommend her without reservation.
Caitlin has helped me walk and watch Rover dogs in the past. I suggested she sign up for an account as well because she loves dogs. She is a responsible, professional, and kind person and I would trust Caitlin to take good care of your pets.
About Caitlin S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to stick to whatever routine the family has from where they sleep, walk times and lengths, and commands used for training/obedience. I love to give treats, but will always confirm with you before. My goal is to minimize the stress of having a new person taking care of your pet while maintaining routine while loving on them a little extra.
Information Caitlin S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know how the dog interacts with other dogs and children. Also what, if anything, scares the dog and if there are allergies.
A typical day
I love walking around new neighborhoods, trying never to take the same route twice. I also enjoy exploring dog parks to let the dogs run free, chase balls, play tug of war, etc.

Availability
I work from home with a flexible schedule and look forward to getting outside on a walk (preferably with a pet) everyday. I am available for morning, lunch, mid-afternoon, or evening walks/drop-in visits.
