About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have always been someone friends and family trust with their pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines so pets feel safe and secure while you’re away. Whether a pet is energetic, anxious, or more independent, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I aim to provide dependable, gentle care every time. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I pride myself on being as reliable and communicative as possible. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and can adjust timing as needed to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and respectful environment for every pet. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications if needed, and any specific preferences your pet has.

“Milo loved his first walk with Kaitlyn. She was very nice and understanding of the fact that he jumps on people and still has a lot of puppy energy. I’ll definitely be rebooking.”

“Daisy is very punctual and professional! She took 5 good quality pictures and walked Karlee the farthest than the last 5 dog walkers! Karlee was wiped out ready for bed after the walk! Thank you so much!”

Modesto dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kaiti is very prompt, communicative, professional, and loves our Gouda boy! She always arrives on time, provides a detailed summary of the time she spent with our little guy, and lots of pictures! We will definitely be repeat customers! If you haven't hired Kaiti yet what are you waiting for?!

Alora was great with my dog. She connected easily and with confidence. Alora was prompt, stayed in communication, and was flexible when I requested a change in our original plan. I enjoyed meeting her during my short stay in Modesto, and I have recommended her to my family members who live there.

Brianna has been doing a wonderful job walking my parents golden . They are both elderly and unable to walk their dog due to various different health conditions . I live out of town so I’m not able to help either . I found Brianna through the Rover app. Brianna shows up 3 days a week and lovingly walks Bella for 30 minutes each time . It takes away the guilt my parents had being unable to walk their own dog. And Bella looks forward to her walks everytime waiting close by the door with her tail wagging. I highly recommend Brianna
