Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover, reliable, and fun!
I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, growing up with both dogs and cats. Caring for them has always come naturally to me, and over the years I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding, walking, grooming, administering basic medications, and understanding different pet personalities and needs. I’ve always had a special connection with animals—especially golden retrievers (I have one of my own 😊)—so I understand the importance of patience, exercise, affection, and routine. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’m happy to match their energy and make them feel comfortable and loved.

Ratings and reviews
Caitlyn is great. Timely and communicative. Shares updates and pictures from visits.
Our first hire from Rover and we couldn’t be happier. Caitlyn communicates well, and goes above and beyond each time. I can tell she actually enjoys spending time with our Mabel and would get along well with any dog cause she has her own so she naturally just knows. We feel like we can trust her and couldn’t have picked a better person for walking Mabel!
Caitlyn is the best! She is always the first person I ask to look after my dogs while I'm away. She is super sweet, cleanly, and trustworthy. My english bulldog loves her! Whenever she leaves, Otto stares out the window waiting for her to come back. There's nobody I trust more to take good care of my best friend!
Caitlyn took care of my two cats, Archie and Olive, last week, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly reliable and trustworthy, and truly went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for while I was away. I was able to fully enjoy my trip knowing they were not only safe, but also loved. She sent thoughtful updates and pictures every time she visited, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust, and I will absolutely be booking Caitlyn again in the future!
Dear Dog Owner, This is Caitlyn's partner, Dan- I'm 26, and I live in Boston, MA. All you need to know is that Caitlyn loves her Golden Retriever, "Gus", more than she will ever love me. Caitlyn dogsits locally, and I've had the privilege of seeing her care for other dogs first hand... she cannot sleep at night knowing she didn't do everything in her power to make the dogs feel loved, whether this means extra fetch, pets, time, or attention, her heart is to big to resist going the extra mile. She has tendency to build a quick questions with new animals. You and your dog(s) will be very lucky to work with Caitlyn!
Caitlyn is truly one of the most caring and responsible people I know, especially when it comes to animals. She has such a natural way with dogs- I just know my dogs instantly feel comfortable around her. She’s patient, attentive, and really takes the time to understand each and every dog she is caring for. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just making sure they have company and feel safe and loved, she goes above and beyond. I would completely trust her with any pet and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and good dog walker.
