Pet care experience

Skilled Pet Care w/ Shelter Exp

I've been caring for pets for over 10 years, starting with my own and extending to family, friends, and neighbors who trusted me with theirs. For 7.5 years, I worked professionally as a kennel tech in an animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs and cats of every size, breed, and temperament. I've also fostered both dogs and kittens, giving me experience with everything from playful puppies to bottle babies, I'm skilled at administering medications, caring for senior pets, and making sure each animal's unique needs are met. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or needs extra attention, I'm confident and comfortable providing the right kind of care. My schedule is fully flexible, so I can work around what your pet needs-not the other way around.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m available for overnights, daily check-ins, or multiple visits throughout the day. With 7+ years of kennel tech experience, I’m used to following detailed routines and handling dogs of every size, breed, and temperament. I can administer medications, stick closely to feeding/walking schedules, and ensure your pets feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away.

Kaitlin took great care of our 3 dogs while we were away on a trip. She administered home meds and made sure they were well tended to during all hours! We appreciate her taking care of them like her own and will definitely look to book with her again in the future!

Kaitlin was amazing. The pups were immediately taken with her. They can’t wait for Kaitlin to come back in a few weeks.

We felt totally comfortable leaving our precious Charlie (and our home) in Kaitlin's hands for several days and nights. She seemed to genuinely enjoy the time with our pup, and she was very quick to respond regarding a couple of requests while we were gone--that was greatly appreciated. We would highly recommend her to others looking for a Rover to dog-sit and house-sit.

Schedule

It’s very helpful to know your dog’s normal routine, including feeding times, walk schedule, and bedtime. Please let me know if they have any special dietary needs, food allergies, or medications, as well as the best way to administer them. I also like to know about any quirks, triggers, or behaviors that help me keep your dog comfortable and safe.
