Pet care experience

Your pup’s home away from home!

I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, and when my family all get together we have 5 altogether. I’ve dog sat or boarded dogs of all breeds and sizes for 25+ years. My own dog is a senior needing daily medication for his atypical Addison’s, so I’m comfortable providing whatever your dog needs. I love senior dogs and love making sure they’re healthy and happy while you enjoy time away. I work in schools so I am enjoying all summer at home and I can't wait to welcome your dog to the fun we're going to have. Please connect with me to ask any questions you have!

Kaitlin was excellent with our senior dog Bailey, who had specific needs and diet. Bailey seemed very comfortable and returned to us super relaxed! Kaitlin also sent us many pics everyday easing our separation anxiety. Her own pup Franklin is laid back and extremely social as well. Definitely recommend and will be a repeat guest in the future!

Kaitlin took good care of Max, great communication, and max was happy when I picked him up! Also nice to have another doodle friend to hang out with. Looking forward to next stay in a few weeks.

Kaitlin is stellar. Easy to communicate with, friendly and sends lots of updates. My pup always comes back happy from her place. Highly recommend her.

My goldendoodle, Brodie, stayed with Kaitlin & her dog, Franklin, for a week! He loved staying with her and was well cared for. Kaitlin sent me several pictures each day & kept me posted on Brodie’s activities. I will definitely use Kaitlin again when we need a dog sitter!

Excellent sitter! Caring. Proactive. Flexible. Rio got a lot of outside time. We've got daily pictures or videos. We love to travel trusting Rio is in excellent hands.

Schedule

I work in education, so I’m home early every afternoon! My senior goldendoodle, Franklin, will keep your pup company until I’m home. He and I are excited for and love when canine friends join us for daily walks, outings, and time together. We are up early, take frequent short walks (or fewer longer ones) even in bad weather, and spend lots of time playing. Some days we go for outings (if dogs are approved)! These can include car rides, hikes, the waterfront, and more.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an upstairs, quiet, and large apartment with a 12yo standard goldendoodle. There are a handful of other dogs in the complex, so hopefully your dog enjoys meeting neighbors on walks. I’ve always lived with 1-2 dogs; and I’ve sat dogs in their homes or mine, since I was teenager. I love them and am very comfortable ensuring they have a pleasant stay. Due to space and my own large dog, I will only take one large dog or two small/medium dogs. Please message for any exceptions I might accommodate. (If your dog cannot do stairs, this may not be the best fit - unless your dog is small enough for me to carry up and down. If this is the case, I’m happy to assist!)
