Pet care experience
I have been boarding, training and fostering dogs for years. My husband and I cherish everything about dogs; we are wanting to chase my dream further to one day owning my own dog boarding/training business. I am currently available 90% of the time, my schedule is based around our children’s needs. We have three mixes of our own. Piper loves playing with other dogs. Sam is our senior dog, she doesn’t play much but she does enjoy dogs hanging out with her on the couch or dog bed. Bill is our 1 year old mastiff puppy, he LOVES playing and hanging out with everyone and thing. Our cat Charlie loves playing and hanging out with all dogs, she’s a very confident and social cat. I can walk and board your dog safely and keep them extremely happy. My heart belongs to the furry animals that have unconditional love for us. We have a dog friendly house and a fenced back yard ready for your pup to explore. I look forward to working with you and your dogs!
Reviews
Kaitlin is a wonderful dog sitter who is great with dogs and very communicative with me during my dog's stay. My dog always comes back happy and healthy. Kaitlin is also great about sending pictures, which I love receiving.
Kaitlin boarded our cat, Cooper, welcoming him into her household for over a week. He was clearly well cared for during his stay. Outstanding..!
I highly recommend Kaitlin to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. She is very professional and communicative, and she does a great job to make sure my dog is well taken care of. I appreciate the fact that she sends me daily updates and photos of my dog while I'm away. I know my dog is in good hands.
Our two Goldens LOVED staying with Kaitlin and her family. Great communication and happy pups!! The photos she sent and her updates definitely made us feel like our babies were loved, happy, and exhausted from playing all day. Will definitely be booking again!

Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced back yard. At night I crate the dogs while unsupervised, usually from 9 pm-6am, if they need extra potty breaks I do get up and let them out. All dogs are fed separately. During play time dogs are supervised, if the dogs ever have to be unsupervised I separate them.

Information Kaitlin H. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the dogs temperament with other dogs since we have three of our own. No breed preferences. We love everything from Chihuahua to Doberman.
A typical day
During summer months we love to get the kiddie pool and hose out for some water fun. We walk boarding dogs a mile or more during the evenings if weather permits it. My sons love throwing the ball for fetch throughout the day. I enjoy testing out your dogs brain with tricks and treats as well

Availability
This is my full time job. I am home with them all day unless we have a doctors appointment or vet appointment. MEET & GREETS. I would like to meet you and your pet, I do not do introductions for my pets with your pet right away, I give them an hour or so to relax and then do one dog at a time. I start with introducing to my children and cat, and add on from there.
