Grad student w/ a love for animals!

Pet care experience

I have lived with pets for the entirety of my life. I’ve owned multiple cats and raised labrador retrievers growing up. I now own a 5 month old golden retriever who I am working on training. All of the cats that I have owned are rescues, which has taught me to handle shy, scared animals, and to read their behavior well. Outside of caring for my own pets, I’ve volunteered at a humane society with both the cat and dog departments. Through this experience I have become comfortable interacting with a wide variety of dog breeds, coming from many different backgrounds. I have also become comfortable handling dogs of all ages and personality types. I have significant experience house and dog/cat sitting for friends and family. Due to my extensive familiarity with pet care, and my general love for all animals, I am a great choice for your pet care!

Kaitlyn is absolutely wonderful!!! My very shy and anxious pup that is normally pretty hesitant around people he’s less familiar with absolutely adores her!! She sends the best pictures while you’re away, communicates wonderfully, and is an overall true pleasure to work with every time!!

Kaitlyn checked in on our wobbly kitty while we were away for the week. She was communicative, timely, and provided great updates, keeping our minds at ease. 100% recommend having Kaitlyn watch your littles while you’re away! 🌟

Katie took great care of our two young, high energy dogs, gave them a nice long walk, and sent lots of photos. I really appreciate her clear communication and her willingness to accommodate our schedule. Thank you again!

A typical day

It is my goal to provide the best care to your pet, providing you with peace of mind while you aren’t with them. I am very active and would love to provide your pet with lots of activity and mental stimulation, from fetch to hiking to running and walking. I love walks around the neighborhood, along with going out to blue mountain and Maclay flat nature trail!
