Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their home, where they’re most comfortable. I follow your instructions closely, sanitize between visits, and watch for any medical or behavioral changes. As a licensed vet tech, I’m confident handling pets with anxiety, special needs, or medical conditions. Safety and calm care are always my top priorities.

Information Kaitlyn T. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has medical conditions, needs meds, is reactive to strangers or other animals, or has any routines you’d like me to follow. I’m happy to support cats and dogs with unique needs, as long as I know what to expect.

A typical day

Each visit is tailored to your pet’s routine. I’ll refresh food and water, give medications if needed, clean litter boxes or potty areas, and offer playtime or gentle company. I keep your pet’s stress low while giving them plenty of love and attention—plus photo updates so you always know how they’re doing.

I felt totally secure and at ease with Kaitlyn taking care of our beloved cat. She provided daily updates and was unfazed by our cat's kooky personality. Recommend!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
