“April is really sweet, and nice! She was very reliable, and I’m so thankful to have her come and walk my dog for me when I’m working! She does exactly what I ask of her. My dog seemed relaxed and happy when I got home.”

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up around many different dogs and cats, have cared for cats throughout my life, and have also volunteered and worked in animal shelters, which gave me experience with pets of many personalities and needs. What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every animal. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands. 🐾 I currently work part-time from home and have very flexible hours, so I am able to be flexible with pet care hours! I always keep my availability up to date in the app as well. In my pet sitting business, I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I maintain their regular feeding schedules, ensure fresh water is always available, and follow any specific dietary or medication instructions carefully. Daily walks, playtime, and enrichment activities keep dogs physically active and mentally stimulated, while plenty of affection and companionship help them feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I also monitor their behavior and overall health, keeping owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind.

About: I have been taking care of pups since I was 6 years old. I started my own dog walking business in middle school and have been working with WAG! For the last 6 years. I am experienced in giving medications including shots. I am currently open availability due to being an Independent contractor. I am available from early morning to late nights. No specific times are blocked off and I will communicate ahead of time if unavailable.

Your fur baby is my top priority at all times, I make sure to know where they are in the home or backyard whenever they are in my care.

“Rachael is great with our 2 dogs. They can be a handful but Rachael has the patience and calmness to manage them.
