Pet care experience
Your life is busy. Let me help! I provide all kinds of in-home pet care: ✅Housesitting ✅Drop-in care - struggle to get away from work to let the dog out? ✅Dog Walking ✅Constant Care (see Scheduling) I am experienced in most circumstances, including: ❤️Complex medical issues ❤️Puppies/kittens - bottle feeding/elimination care, foster experience ❤️Senior pets ❤️Small animals ❤️Some farm/livestock 🆕I'm in process for my Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CCPDT). This process includes comprehensive education, consistent mentorship, at least 300 logged practice hours and a separate certification exam with continuing education requirements going forward. I am already skilled in basic training and other interventions like: 🎓 basic obedience 🎓FOMO/separation anxiety (mild only) 🎓general anxiety & reactivity (mild to moderate) 🎓environment modification (small changes can yield big results!) Let me know whether you'd prefer I use some of these skills or provide suggestions while watching your pets or if you'd just like me to keep your home happy while you're away 🙂
Reviews
Caitlyn was everything we wanted and needed in a dog/house sitter. Her professionalism and expertise were so very welcome. She sent updates and asked clarifying questions. She took great care of our Georgia and our home. She's wonderful and we look forward to working with her again.
Thank you thank you thank you for taking excellent care of all our “babies”. And thank you for your professionalism and willingness to learn all about the routines and needs of the animals. And a BIG thank you for your flexibility and helping us out when we were in a travel “quadmire" trying to get home and giving us some piece of mind for the animals.
We appreciate Caity for her kindness, her talent and her expertise in caring for our boys, Prince and Duke, even for a short term (3 weeks) Besides taking them out to relieve themselves, and walk and play with them, she also took her time stimulating their brains with cognitive games and short command training. We love it when she gives us updates of their individual response. She also gave us evidence based recommendations when it comes to behavior modification. She loves working with the boys and it really showed. Prince and Duke will miss her. I couldn’t recommend her enough as your go-to sitter.
Caitlin was a joy to work with. I was able to relax and not worry about my cats at all.
