PowerDNS supports CAA records beginning with version 4.0, but the pdns package in EPEL for most recent centos versions is stuck at around version 3.4 (3.4.11 is what I have).
Do I have no other choice but to manually compile and maintain my own pdns installation? I prefer to avoid this but I need up-to-date features.
Rawhide has version 4. With any luck you could just rebuild the SRPM with no issues. I've done that with packages where I need a bleeding edge feature on a CentOS system. Sometimes I have to tweak the spec file so that it will build with the older tools.

Thank you for that reply. It turns out PowerDNS hosts their own repositories:
