About: Your pet won't just be watched, they'll be genuinely cared for. I’ve spent over 20 years caring for animals of all kinds, and that experience has taught me how to support pets with every temperament and need. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, senior, or requires specialized care, I take the time to understand their routines, triggers, and comfort cues so they feel safe and secure from the moment they arrive. With a background in behavioral psychology and positive‑reinforcement handling, I understand the motivations, stress signals, comfort cues, and behavior patterns that shape how dogs respond to new environments. This deeper insight into how dogs process change, manage stress, and build trust allows me to read body language accurately, anticipate triggers, and support each dog with structure, reassurance, and training strategies that truly fit their emotional needs. It’s care that feels intuitive and comforting for everyday pups- and thoughtfully informed for dogs who benefit from more specialized, behavior‑aware support. I’ve cared for puppies to seniors, small to large breeds, multi‑pet households, and pets who need medications or structured routines. That range of experience gives me a strong, practical foundation in understanding behavior, building trust, and tailoring care to each dog’s unique personality. My favorite part of pet care is building trust. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a shy, anxious, or reserved pet relax and let their personality shine. Some of the most rewarding feedback I receive is when owners tell me their pet seemed more comfortable, playful, or affectionate than usual. I take the time to understand each dog’s emotional comfort zone so they feel safe being themselves. And when those moments happen, you'll get to see them too. I love sharing photos, videos, and updates so you can enjoy your pet's adventures while you're away!
 🛡️Safety First, Always 
I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing attentive, thoughtful care and keeping you informed every step of the way.
 
 I stay fully engaged with your pet throughout their stay, whether we’re indoors relaxing or outdoors exploring. I’m attentive to their energy levels, comfort, and shifting needs, and I’m mindful of our surroundings- unfamiliar dogs, wildlife, weather, and anything that could affect their experience. I also have experience introducing dogs to one another thoughtfully and at a pace that keeps everyone comfortable. I guide interactions thoughtfully, recognizing early signs of curiosity, uncertainty, playfulness, or overstimulation. I believe great pet care comes from being engaged, observant, and proactive. From the moment your pet arrives until they're safely back with you, their well-being is my top priority.
 🌟Personalized Care for Every Pet & Every Owner No two pets are alike, and neither are their owners.
 Some families provide detailed instructions, schedules, and preferences. Others simply want peace of mind knowing their pet is in experienced hands. I genuinely enjoy both approaches.
  I'm naturally detail-oriented, attentive, and precautionary, so I carefully follow every instruction provided. At the same time, my years of experience allow me to confidently care for pets whose owners prefer a more relaxed approach. Whether you prefer frequent updates or occasional check-ins, detailed summaries or quick messages, I'll adapt to your communication style while providing the same level of attentive care. Your pet's care stays consistent regardless of how much or how little direction you provide. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, consistent attention throughout the week.
 Monday-Thursday: I work 8 AM-4 PM just minutes from home, so I can stop by during lunch for potty breaks, walks, check-ins, and extra attention when needed.
 Fridays: I work remotely, which gives me even more flexibility for walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship throughout the day. Weekends: My schedule is open, making it easy to accommodate overnight stays, extended visits, and last-minute bookings.
 Because my routine is consistent, pets settle in quickly and receive steady, dependable care. Whether your pet enjoys activity, companionship, or simply a predictable routine, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for during their stay. 🤍A Calm, Low-Stress Environment
 One of the things pets benefit from most in my care is that I don’t have any animals of my own. This means visiting pets receive my full attention in a calm environment without competing for space, affection, or supervision. For many dogs, especially anxious, young, senior, shy, or independent dogs, this can make a huge difference. They often settle in more quickly because the environment is quiet, predictable, and focused entirely on them.
 Your pet's routine becomes my routine. Whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, cuddling on the couch, frequent potty breaks, or simply relaxing nearby, I take the time to learn what helps them feel most comfortable.
 My building includes: • Private pet park- a safe, enclosed spot for pets to stretch out, play, and enjoy fresh air during their stay • Quiet park nearby for peaceful walks- ideal for pets who prefer gentle environments over the hustle of community dog areas • Pet wash room- perfect for muddy paws, quick rinses, and keeping pets fresh and comfortable during their stay • Elevator and stair access- every pet gets an option based on their comfort and mobility needs All designed to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for.
 
For boarding/daycare, pets who prefer space from other pets can enjoy a one‑household stay.
 
 💛Extra Support & Attention
 My partner is also a lifelong experienced animal lover and often spends her days off with me. Pets naturally gravitate toward her kind, playful energy with them. She provides an extra set of eyes, hands, and attention, which can be especially helpful for puppies, active dogs, and multi-pet households. Like me, she respects your pet, routines, and home, and takes their care seriously. 🏡 House Sitting: Respectful Pet Care & Home Care
 When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that looks exactly as you left it. I come fully prepared with my own laptop, hotspot, meals, and daily essentials. I don't require Wi-Fi, snacks, streaming services, or household supplies. Most of my time is spent playing with, walking, cuddling, grooming, or simply spending quality time with your pet. I closely follow feeding schedules, household rules, training routines, and walking expectations. I also: • Bring in mail (just lmk)/take out trash • Vacuum pet hair (just lmk) • Keep food and water areas clean • Tidy up after myself • Wipe down surfaces I use • Handle pet-related cleanups • Respect all security measures and gates
 You'll never have surprise visitors, smoking, parties, or drinking in your home. I treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect someone to show mine.
 One of my strongest qualities is being a respectful house guest. Your home, routines, and pet's comfort matter to me.

“Amazing sitter! She has watched my dog and other pets multiple times and does a great job. My dog loves her and is always super excited to see her whenever she comes to walk him.”

Could not recommend her enough!”

“Victoria was awesome with our 2 cats! She took great care of them and followed our directions precisely.

Thanks so much for taking such great care of them!”

“No doubt about it, I’d pick Kaitlyn to catsit again in a heartbeat. I am so beyond thankful for all of Kaitlyn’s patience, kindness, warmth, and compassion. She bonded with both our cats right off the bat. Our shy male cat warmed up to her very quickly. The anxious girl kitty took a bit longer to come around, but Kaitlyn made sure to go at the pace of the kitty in question. She was able to medicate our male cat, and made sure they both felt loved and cared for while we were away for an extended period of time. She communicated as soon as anything came up, and was very flexible! It was such a relief knowing our cats were in such thoughtful & capable hands for the holidays. My girlfriend and I could not recommend her more highly! 🩵”

About: What sets me apart is my combination of hands-on experience and genuine passion for animal care. I’m currently studying to become a dog trainer, which allows me to go beyond basic sitting by reinforcing good behaviors, working on basic commands, and helping puppies build positive habits like potty training, crate training, and leash manners.

In addition, I have a calm home environment with a fenced yard and a nearby park for safe exercise and enrichment.
