Pet care experience
Hello! I'm Caitlyn. Not only do I have a cat and a dog of my own, but I have based my whole life and whole career around pets since my very first job at a pet hotel at 16. I have met and cared for THOUSANDS (literally) of cats and dogs over the years! I have done in-home sitting, out-of-home sitting, dog walking, drop-ins, supervised doggy daycare playgroups and worked at two different pet boarding facilities. I also now work at a dog training company. I am comfortable, and confident, with all types, sizes, breeds and temperaments of both cats and dogs. I am able to expertly recognize and read canine body language. When you book with me, you will ALWAYS get some great pictures and know your pet is in caring, compassionate hands. :)
Reviews
Caitlyn did so great with our crazy puppy! She followed all instructions and took such great pictures. Will definitely be using her again!
Caitlyn was great with my dog Tucker! Such great pics too!
Caitlyn took great care of my 3 year old Aussie - she sent me pictures all day so I knew she was doing well and even taught her some tricks! Would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again for sure!
Caitlyn is the true meaning of a pet fanatic. She has over a decade of experience caring for both dogs and cats and is absolutely wonderful at doing so. She is highly detailed, ensuring all instructions of care are met and understands dog behavior at an elite level. Not only will she take incredible care of your pet, but she’s also an amazing photographer that has professional experience photographing animals specifically. Her own dog has thousands of followers on Instagram and she is sure to get great pictures to send you when caring for your pet. There’s not a single person I’d trust more with caretaking of an animal than Caitlyn!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I truly treat each pet as it's my own. The love and bond I have with each pet I stop in for helps me help them feel comfortable. Whether going for a walk or a quick potty break and heading back into the crate, or just giving some fresh water for the cats, I am trustworthy and closely follow your directions. I know your pet is a member of your family, and I treat them as such.
Information Caitlyn G. would like to know about your pet
Do they show any signs of aggression in certain situations? Are they nervous around new people, or is everyone they meet their new best friend? How active are they - would they rather go for a run or lay on the couch getting love?
A typical day
Each dog is different, and I know that! To some pups, a "fun activity" is a 3-mile walk, and to others, it's plopping down on the couch for some cuddles and a new bone to chew on. I'll make sure to cater to what your pup loves and feels comfortable with! Same for cats! I know some cats want to hide or stare at you across the room, and some cats want to play with toys or be brushed. I'll make sure to do what your cat loves!

Availability
I currently work part-time and fully remote, so I can be extremely flexible on times needed during weekdays. If your pup likes other dogs, my Golden Retriever may even join for some friend-time on a walk too!
