Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Animal Care Enthusiast
I am looking to broaden my reach within the pet community, bring peace of mind to those with busy schedules and have some fun while i'm at it. I am currently studying for my first certificate as a dog trainer and have a very flexible schedule. I personally have two cats and just recently lost my dog. I would love to help some pets in his memory and enjoy some time with more furry friends! I am available to drop in to check up on your pets, or to stop by for a good walk. I am active and love being outside, so long or explorative walks are never a problem. Though I can also appreciate a slow, calm walk for any older dogs or just any that prefer to take their time. I am happy to incorporate play, lots of praise and attention in order to make the visit fun and memorable for you and your pet. All owners will be kept up to date with text messages and photos so that they can feel a part of the experience too! Within the last five years I've personally owned and cared for a dog, two cats and a ball python, but grew up helping my family raise and care for our family dogs. I have worked for a petting zoo, volunteered at a dog shelter, helped friends and neighbors with their dogs and rode horses athletically for a couple years. I have experience with dogs of high, medium and low energy, ranging from 8lbs-120lbs. This includes puppies as young as 8 weeks, adolescents, adults and a couple seniors as old as 13 years. I can pass oral medications and apply topicals and bandages. I am experienced with allergies and have cared for a dog and multiple cats after surgery. I also have worked with dogs struggling with anxiety, reactivity, and fear related behaviors. I am always open to work with pet parents to ensure a safe and comfortable visit for a dog with anxiety, fear or high levels of arousal. I have previously worked as a Direct Support Professional and am also prepared for organization and documentation while focusing on the well being and happiness of any pet in my care. Our pets are our most loyal companions, and I'm happy to offer my services in order to help them be comfortable and while you're away!

Ratings and reviews
I have known Kaitlyn for 7+ years, and have personally gotten to watch her train and care for animals throughout the time I have known her. I have run my own pet sitting business for two years, and have worked for a pet sitting company with over 100+ clients. I am very familiar with the business of animal care and the importance of dependability, communication, and flexibility within this job. Kaitlyn demonstrates each of these qualities to the fullest; she is widely knowledgeable on dog training and has assisted me in training my border collie corgi mix, as well as training her own pets to help them achieve their fullest potential. Kaitlyn is consistent, enthusiastic in her work, and shows the upmost care to each client she works with. Her patience and knowledge with animals has never ceased to amaze me throughout the time I have known her, and I can not recommend her enough.
