Safety, trust & environment

While being in your space I find it makes your pet comfortable and relaxed, being easy to tend to their needs and goes for a smoothness transition

Information Kaitlin Y. would like to know about your pet

It’s really helpful to know your pet’s routine, energy level, and personality ahead of time—like how they are with other animals or people, any health needs, and what they enjoy or don’t like. That way I can make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and stick to what they’re used to.

A typical day

I keep things simple and tailored to each pet—more active ones get plenty of walks and playtime (like fetch or tug), while calmer pets enjoy gentle strolls and some cuddle time. I also add a bit of mental stimulation, like treat games or basic training, to keep them happy and engaged

It is my pleasure to recommend Kaitlin. She did in-home dog sitting for a week for us and our reactive and highly active dog. They got along really well and our dog now adores her. She is reliable and caring and she took our dog out for long walks, sending pictures along the way. Definitely will hire her again!

Kaitlin has been so lovely with my high energy pup shepherd Sully! She understands the needs of a high energy dog and handles him with ease. I returned to a very happy pup and felt at ease while I was away.

Kaitlin was amazing with my dog! It was my first time ever leaving him, and I was pretty nervous, but she made the whole thing feel so much easier. She’s super reliable and kept me in the loop with lots of updates and the cutest pictures, which honestly helped so much. You could tell he was having the best time—she took him on tons of walks and gave him so much love and attention that I don’t even think he noticed we were gone. I’d 100% trust her again and can’t recommend her enough!

Kaitlin has houses for us and cared for our dog and cat many times. I always feel good about leaving them in her capable hands. I know she will take good care of them and our home. Kaitlin is a great communicator and is happy to update us and share some pics while we’re away. I would definitely recommend her.
