Outdoorsy dog lover here!

I am a tried-and-true dog person and dogsit to share my love with them! In Spring 2021 we brought home our chocolate labradoodle, Sammie, and have had a blast meeting new dog friends. She loves to show dogs her toys, the neighborhood, and is sad when we don't have a dog over for a while.

Kaitlyn did a great job at making me feel comfortable and Marvin my 15 month old dog. It was my first time leaving Marvin overnight with anyone. She sent me pictures and videos of Marvin throughout his stay and let me know how he was doing. I have already booked Marvin to stay again with Kaitlyn! Marvin came home happy!!!

Kaitlyn was so wonderful with our two pups! She sent lots of pictures and videos, gave us wonderful summaries of how the dogs were doing, and took them out on all kinds of walks and adventures. Kaitlyn also gets a big gold star for alerting us that one of our dogs seemed to have blood in her urine, and she very kindly offered to take her in to the vet. We happened to have family still in town who were able to make the vet visit, but Kaitlyn was awesome about keeping in communication throughout, managing the handoff, and administering the meds afterwards. We would love to have our dogs stay with her again.

Kaitlyn provided 5Star++ service. Our dog had a Ritz Carlton experience, dog walks, play time, hikes, trails and runs and play dates, the perfect dog life with copious love and attention to have the perfect stay. Excellent communication with timely frequent updates, detailed information with pictures and videos. Home and yard are perfect for dogs, very well organized, with emphasis on doggy comfort and inclusion in the family. Will be looking again for Kaitlyn to care for our dog on next vacation, hopefully our dog won’t be so depressed to leave Kaitlyn’s care. Kaitlyn Thank you for the sense of safety and comfort you gave when caring for our dog.

Kaitlyn was a fantastic sitter! She sent us multiple photo/video updates every day during our trip, so we always knew what Ripley was up to. We felt so reassured that Ripley was having fun time hanging out with Sammie. We would definitely book with Kaitlyn again!

Schedule

As a sitter, I have experience with a variety of animals both big and small including pit bulls, hounds, vizslas, bulldogs, poodles, beagles, spaniels, and others. I have trained and fostered puppies through the SPCA for months at a time. I love getting to know dogs personalities, it's such a joy to make them feel at home and see them settle in, get comfortable, and be their true self.
