Animal Lover & Law Student!

Pet care experience

( I WORK FROM HOME FULL TIME! 😊) Hello! My name is Kaitlyn (Keitorin in Japanese, so my nickname is Rin!), and I am an alumni from University of California, Irvine with a degree in political science. I am currently working as a Litigation Paralegal here in Orange County. However, with the rigor of school and work, I have always found solitude and comfort in having fur babies around. I have grown up with pets all my life, and am passionate about caring for them with love while engaging in fun! Empathy is a huge principle in my life, and that extends to both owners and their precious animals. I have a lovely, large cat named Kiwi (He's bigboned--not chubby!) who is a Maine Coone. I also have two cute cats that I fell in love with after fostering a mama cat and her five kittens. I kept the mom cat, Prim, and her silly son, Mango. The cats are socialized well with dogs! :) Big dogs, small dogs- old or young, they’ll be loved by me during their stay. Safety is a top priority and being away from their owners is hard enough, so I do my best to make them feel as comfortable as possible in my home. I aspire to make your pet feel loved and cared for. Hope to be in contact soon!

Kaitlyn takes such amazing care of our dogs! She checks in, gives updates, and sends great pictures. Your dogs are absolutely in good hands here. I know our pups are looking forward to another visit in the future!

I really can't say enough good things about Kaitlyn. She took care of our young puppy, Koda, with a lot of unique requirements including potty training and getting up with him in the middle of the night. She sent us lots of photos and frequent, detailed updates about his stay. Koda also had fun playing with her sweet cats - a brand new experience for him. Kaitlyn is clearly a dog lover and has a great understanding of their behaviors and needs. She's responsive, organized, efficient and really pleasant to work with. I will absolutely use Kaitlyn again when the need arises.

Kaitlyn was super awesome taking care of Kasper for a long weekend. She was very communicative and kept us up to date often with pictures and check-ins. Highly recommend her as a sitter (especially if you have a big fur baby) as she took care of our white German shepherd with no issues! Will absolutely have her dogsit Kasper again!

Kaitlyn cultivated a wonderful boarding experience for Banksy and made him feel right at home. We were nervous about how he might be in a new space, but from the sweet updates and pictures we got throughout his stay, he clearly enjoyed himself and felt very comfy. Her cats are friendly and got along great with our dog. We would book with Kaitlyn again in a heartbeat and referred her to our friends in the area as well.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and easy access to the local parks and nice areas to walk if your dog needs some activity! I always make sure to nurture any pet that I take care of and make them as comfortable as possible when they are away from their owner. I’ll send tons of pictures to make sure you, the owner, gets the updates you deserve and to alleviate any anxiety about having to be away from your pet. I typically only host one dog at a time, at most two dogs from the same owner/family at a time, so there won’t be any concern for dog fights or potential aggressive situations. I can also make sure to keep dogs away from other dogs socially if need be, large public spaces, etc.

Information Kaitlyn I. would like to know about your pet

Any behavioral or health issues that I can tend to. I know animals can be quirky in their ways, so let me know if they have any specific needs or habits so I can accommodate to them!

A typical day

We will go on walks and runs around my neighborhood, which is surrounded by open space and is safe, for both families and our furry friends. Cuddles will always be involved. Depending on what the dog is used to, I can accommodate to their walk & feeding routine.
