Dog Whisperer is my middle name.

Pet care experience

I have had dogs since I was born. I have taken care them throughout their life, from puppy to senior. I have dog sat for many family friends and family throughout my life. I went to an ag high school and was enrolled in the vet tech program. I have handled many different animals, as well as many different ages and needs. This includes senior massages and bathing, administering medicine, feeding, exercising very animals from horses to rats. If you have any questions, please reach out.

Rachael did a great job with my dog Harry today! He came home happy & tired so that's a good thing. He ate his dinner quite heartily too, ha, ha! I'm looking forward to having her come back again hopefully on a regular basis for walks & see if we can get some weight off Harry as he is overweight for his size right at this stage in life. Thanks so much Rachael!

Rachael has always had a love for animals. She has an academic background in Agriculture which included vet science and dairy production. I can always depend on Rachael to be kind and caring toward my pets. She is also an excellent dog trainer. Rachael consistently creates a bond of trust between herself and the pet. In return the pet will respond positively and with unconditional love. I highly recommend Rachael to care for your pets. You will not be disappointed. Christina R

A typical day

I love playing stimulation games with dogs. Hide and go seek is always a fun one. I love playing fetch; being a washed up softball player, it gives me an excuse to exercise again like that. There is a big open grassy field right near my house that is open to dogs that I love to utilize.
