Pet care experience

Compassionate Care You Can Count On

I bring a wide range of hands-on animal care experience that goes far beyond typical pet sitting. I’ve worked with animals of all kinds—from training dogs and caring for cats to handling farm animals like calves and horses. I’m comfortable managing pets with different temperaments, including anxious, reactive, or previously abused animals, and I take pride in helping them feel safe and cared for. I’m highly detail-oriented and quick to learn each pet’s routine, which allows me to notice subtle changes in behavior, health, or mood. I also have experience supporting both young and senior pets, including administering basic care, reinforcing training, and providing extra patience and attention where needed. What really sets me apart is my reliability, strong work ethic, and genuine love for animals. I treat every pet like my own and strive to create a calm, safe, and positive environment while you’re away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and respect are at the core of the care I provide. I strictly follow all instructions, rules, and boundaries by the owner to ensure their pet’s routine and environment remain consistent and secure. I make it a priority to double-check that all doors are properly closed and lock before leaving your home, giving you a piece of mine while you’re away. I am dependable and punctual, always showing up when expected, and completing every task with care and attention to detail. I also ensure to leave your home, clean and well-maintained. My consistent, compassionate approach, not only build trust with pet owners also helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and at ease in my care.

Kaitlyn pet/house sat for us recently, and we are so grateful for her help. She kept us regularly informed of our babies and was comfortable asking questions. It was wonderful knowing we had someone we could trust taking care of our critters!

Kaitlyn took exceptional care of both my dog and cat. I was absolutely amazed that my cat snuggled with her something she’s never done with anyone except me. My dog too fell in love with her. Kaitlyn was communicative throughout my time away which alleviated my anxiety especially seeing pictures of them interacting with her. I will definitely rehire Kaitlyn in the future and highly recommend her to anyone who is searching for a safe, dependable and loving sitter.

This was Kaitlyn’s first visit with our dog. She is punctual and friendly, and it is obvious that she likes animals. We appreciated her help today and will book again!

Kaitlyn was amazing with Melvin! She came in very last minute to help care for him when I had multiple competing priorities. She kept him calm and happy and took him on a great walk. Very happy!

Kaitlyn did an amazing job making sure our fur babies were well cared for. She followed instructions to the letter and sent upto date photos of our babies to help warm our heart while we were away knowing they were safe.
