Flexible and fun, walk, run & play

Pet care experience

I'm a former USAF member now going back to school in the DC area with a completely flexible schedule looking for some dogs to become best friends with. I prefer regular customers but don't mind helping out in a pinch. I grew up training hunting labs and working cattle dogs and have owned dogs my entire life. My most recent best buddy passed away 2 years ago at the ripe age of 14. Working on getting back in shape after a pacemaker implant so I would love a morning jogging partner. Long walks by the lake and afternoons of fetch are just what the doctor ordered. Available for short and long term overnights in your home as well. But boarding at my house is not currently available as my roommates have two dogs of their own. Once I get to know your pupper and we can make sure they all get along it would be possible to negotiate. I am comfortable taking care of a whole host of other fur family members from cats and buns to farm animals like horses and pigs. Birds, reptiles and fish welcome. The more the merrier! I also offer cleaning, errand running, organization and meal prep services at an additional fee.

Caitlin was fantastic while staying at our house and watching our dog Mabel for 9 days! Mabel can be really challenging and we're usually extremely nervous leaving her with others, but we weren't nervous with Caitlin. She did a great job keeping us updated on how our dog was doing. Plus, our dog loved her! We wouldn't hesitate to book a stay with Caitlin again.

Caitlin was amazing! She arrived exactly when she said she would, she knew a lot about dog training and behavior management, and she was an excellent housesitter! If I went out of town more, I'd call Caitlin every time.

Caitlin has been outstanding with Teddy. She has been flexible with scheduling and diligent in following his routine while I am gone.

Caitlin was a huge help for us when our usual dog walker wasn’t available. She understands how important our doggies are to us and made sure to take extremely good care of them. She provided lots of pictures, information and details about the walks she took with the doggies, which was very reassuring for me.
