Caring for pets with love & respect
Hi! I am a Biology student in my mid-20s in the process of obtaining my second bachelor's degree and working toward a career in animal conservation. Caring for animals has always been more than just a job to me. I've loved animals my whole life. I've had/cared for dogs and cats for over ten years. I have been pet-sitting professionally for friends, family, and others for the past five years. I've cared for animals of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves to play, enjoys long walks, or is a little shy or anxious, I'm happy to adjust my care to fit what makes them feel most comfortable. I know every dog is different, and I enjoy getting to know their personality and routine. I'm experienced with overnight stays, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, administering medications, and caring for homes with multiple pets. I always do my best to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible while you're away because I know that consistency helps them feel safe and comfortable. I'll also send plenty of photos, videos, and updates so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you're gone. My goal is to treat every dog like they're my own—with patience, love, and lots of attention. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I'd love the opportunity to care for yours.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client's home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible. I know pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, so I follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any other special care they may need. I take the time to get to know each pet and adjust to their personality, whether they love to play, prefer quiet companionship, or need a little extra patience to feel comfortable. My priority is making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I also treat every client's home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep things clean, secure, and make sure your pet has everything they need. Throughout my visits or overnight stays, I'll send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
Ratings and reviews
I highly recommend Kaitlin to watch your pets and house sit. She stayed at our home for an entire week while caring for our two dogs and our chickens, and everything went perfectly. She was dependable, responsible, and took excellent care of our animals and our home. We came back to happy, well cared for pets, and everything was exactly as we had left it. Throughout the week, she sent us pictures and assured us everything was going great. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, caring, and treats your home and animals with respect, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. We will definitely be asking her to watch our pets again in the future.
Kaitlin has helped me out my animals several times in the past 2 years. Animals consisting of rabbits, chickens, lambs, ducks, & dogs. She has always respected and followed my feeding routines and my home. She sends me updates and pictures while I’m gone and lets me know if there is any issues I should know about. We love Kaitlin being our pet sitter and are so appreciative of her attention to detail.

Schedule
Pet sitting fits naturally into my schedule because it's my main focus outside of school. I'm a Biology student, so while I do have classes during the week, I have plenty of flexibility before and after class, as well as on weekends and holidays. I will keep my calendar updated if any changes occur. I love spending my free time with animals, whether that's going for walks, playing with energetic pets, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel comfortable while you're away.
