Hi, I’m Kaitlin Morton! Animals have always been a huge part of my life—growing up, we always had dogs, and that love for pets only grew stronger as I got older. I spent 5 years working at Mohawk Hudson as the Admissions Supervisor and also served as one of the Animal Cruelty Officers. During that time, I worked with pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me patience, understanding, and how to provide the best care possible. The “bad nuggets” have always been my favorite—I love working with animals who might need a little extra time, reassurance, or structure. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, training reinforcement, or just sticking to their daily routine, I’ll treat your pet like one of my own. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Kaitlin housed and took care of my dog, Pip, for two weeks and was outstanding in the care she provided to him. From the very start of our communication, she was responsive and answered my questions quickly and thoroughly. We set up a visit, and I had a thoroughly enjoyable 90 minute visit together. Kaitlin has had extensive work and experience with dogs, and I could see her watching Pip, and checking whether there was any stress in his behavior. Kaitlin has a lovely young family, and her children know their way around dogs, and Kaitlin watches these interactions carefully also. Kaitlin kept me up to speed on how Pip was doing during my two-week absence, sending me pictures and color commentary throughout. While no one wants to think about our pets having an emergency, I know Kaitlin would be cool under pressure; she has so much experience with dogs! I recommend Kaitlin with my highest confidence and without reservation—she is dependable, loving, and truly gifted at caring for animals. Pip was happy, safe, and adored in her hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to call on her again.

Safety, trust & environment

How I Care for Pets in My Home: In my home, pets become part of the family. I make sure they are comfortable, safe, and feel right at home. They’ll get plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles, along with a routine that’s as close to their own as possible. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with cozy areas for them to rest, and I always supervise play to make sure everyone is happy and safe

Pets

A typical day

When I’m watching pets, I love to make sure they’re having fun and getting plenty of attention. Some of the activities I like to do include: Walks & Outdoor Play: Going on walks, playing fetch, or just enjoying time outside (depending on their energy level). Interactive Games: Tug-of-war, puzzle toys, or enrichment activities to keep their minds busy. Cuddle Time: For the pets that love affection, I make sure to give plenty of belly rubs, pets, and snuggles. Training Reinforcement: If you’re working on commands or manners, I’ll happily practice with them. Play with Other Pets (if applicable): If they enjoy socializing, I’ll make sure they have safe playtime with other friendly dogs. Relax & Comfort: For senior pets or calmer personalities, I’ll spend quiet time keeping them company so they feel safe and loved. Every pet is different, so I like to adjust activities to their personality, age, and energy level. My goal is always to make them feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
