Information Caitlin V. would like to know about your pet

I like to know every detail of their routine. They're in a new environment so keeping familiar routines will help us both have a great time!

A typical day

I love getting the dogs into the park every day but also allow them to take in the smells of my neighborhood. Sniffing is stimulation!

Tail wags are a special kind of joy

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover who grew up with two Labrador Retrievers, so caring for dogs has always felt like second nature to me. From puppyhood antics to lazy afternoon cuddles, I know firsthand how much joy (and energy!) dogs bring to a home. I'm comfortable with a variety of breeds, sizes and personalities. Whether you pup loves long walks and playtime or just wants a cozy companion to snuggle with, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.

Caitlin was wonderful with our fur baby Booger. She was on time, sent updates with photos, and treated our apt with care. Will definitely use again!

Caitlin has been a lifesaver for me when I need a sitter for my dog, Tina. She's reliable, trustworthy, and very communicative! She follows my care instructions, sends daily photos, and keeps me updated on how Tina's doing while in her care. I trust her completely and would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter and/or dog walker!

I’ve known Caitlin for years and she is genuinely one of the most caring people I know, especially when it comes to dogs. She’s the type of person who picks up on every dog’s little quirks and favorite things almost immediately, and uses that to make them feel right at home. Responsible, warm, and completely devoted. Any dog lucky enough to spend time with her is in good hands.

Caitlin has watched my dogs on multiple occasions and they always have the best time! She is able to work with a wide variety of dogs and their unique needs and ensures that they are safe, happy, and well-taken care of. Our dogs love her!
