Pet care experience
Plain & simple, I just love animals. I have always had an affinity for anything that walks on four legs... and honestly a dolphin & a monkey on two separate occasions. It’s the bipedal amorous types that remain a mystery to me. This is probably TMI, but due to a tough childhood, I developed an acute attention to detail as well as reading body language. I think that is so important when it comes to pet care because for the most part, that is their main outlet for communication.
Reviews
Kaitie was very responsive & sent plenty of updates! She even cleaned up around my home before my return which was so nice to return home to. Can’t recommend enough!
Katie went above and beyond our expectations. Our dog was given a generous amount of TLC and attention. We were given multiple updates, including pictures, on a daily basis. Thank you, Katie, for taking such good care of our dog.
Kaitie was wonderful. She took into consideration all of Dwayne’s quirks and took great care of him. She was attentive to Dwayne and communicative with us. We have a big reactive dog, so not everyone is a good fit for dog sitting for us but Kaitie fit the bill perfectly. Will definitely book again.
Kaitie went above and beyond to ease all worries of leaving my senior cat with health needs for a long weekend. I cannot wait to book her again in the future. Kind, responsible and thorough, Kaitie is everything you would want in a house sitter / pet sitter.

Safety, trust & environment
I first & foremost just want to make sure mine, as well as others', furbabies are happy & healthy. I'm very diligent in picking up on body language & cues to help communicate with our furry companions. My goal is always to leave homes as I found them, if not cleaner (no, I don't mean digging through closests for cleaning supplies). I'm also very careful in making sure to not give or feed pets anything that has not been deliberately approved by their hooman. My career path has molded me into being very proactive & calm in emergency situations as well. Though unfortunate, my roommate let one of my cats out earlier this year. It was devastating (don't worry, I got her), but I learned a lot from the experience. I was able to look into various resources as well as what to do for both cats AND dogs.
Information Kaitie G. would like to know about your pet
What I like to prioritize most about my furry friends is if they have a history of any behaviors/gestures that can trigger a reaction from them. People can call the world soft all they want, but we literally cannot do enough for our little four peeted friends.
A typical day
I personally like discussing what each furbabe needs! I like to take my lieges for walks, playing in the backyard, and with their favorite toys inside. I even have a tv if they like to enjoy!

Availability
I am currently underemployed, and so am overwhelming available & flexible for your pet care needs! I do have a car, so transportation for me is no problem at all.
