18. Rachel S.
About: I’ve been doing animal rescue since I was 8 years old. This has given me experience with a variety of different breeds and temperaments. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, horses, cows and some wildlife at a sanctuary. Ive also been dog sitting since I was 15 giving me experience in pet care specifically. I’m currently a student at western with a pretty relaxed schedule so I have a bunch of free time during the day. I am an early riser and would love to take some pups on morning walks. I also have time to pop by a couple times a day if you go out of town. I will follow your instructions on safety in your home. Safety of your per is the most important thing to me. When we are on walks your pet will be on a leash the whole time unless instructed otherwise.
