Teacher w/ Love of Doggos & Kitties
Pet care experience
I'm a high school English teacher (Issaquah School District), and I love petsitting as way to make a little extra money for my summer travels. Right now my past housesitting clients are keeping me busy with overnights, so I’m not accepting new clients for that service. But, I am still open for new drop-in clients. I love reading, podcasts, Ark Lodge Cinema, and Netflix. I’m a not-crazy Swiftie. I grew up with Dobermans, dachshunds, ferrets, cats, etc. I'm not scared of large breeds - usually they are the biggest sweethearts. Personally I have two sweet kitties, Lucy and Ethel, whom I adopted from the SPCA. Covid: I’m fully vaccinated and boosted.
Reviews
Thank you, as always, Caitlyn!!! Love that can we can depend on you to make Violet happy when we need to leave her behind 😊
I always try to rebook Caitlyn anytime I have to travel and leave my pup behind. Caitlyn always sends regular updates, pics and videos so I never worry. 10/10 would recommend
Caitlyn is my go to! Violet adores her and I’m always so grateful for the care Caitlyn takes.
Caitlyn took wonderful care of our cats and house! She sent photos every day and communicated clearly.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My belief is that no one belongs in your home but me, who you’ve vetted and trust. I generally treat your home as like I’m polite extended family guest. I’m quiet, clean, and will make sure everything is how you left it. I don’t board any pets because I have a small apartment and two kitties who’d rather not share.
Information Caitlyn M. would like to know about your pet
What makes the dog uncomfortable? How do they normally show fear and/or aggression? Do they have a special way to feed them, walk them, love them?
A typical day
I’m a fan of walks if your puppies like those, but I’m happy to chill with them on the couch. We can play, watch Netflix together, and they are more than happy to help me grade essays. Often with kitties, I’ll put on a podcast and then sit with them as much as they like. Sometimes they just need a person to be with them.

Availability
I work as a high school teacher from 7:30am-4pm, so unless there are extenuating circumstances, I won’t be able to do morning visits on school days. Because I petsit as a side job (that I love), sometimes I’ll need to deny a booking request because of the distance away from my school or if I have quite a bit of grading expected those days. I know this is frustrating for potential clients, but I do my best to respond as quickly as possible to let you know if I can’t take a job.
