About: I grew up around cats and dogs, and now have 2 large dogs of my own. I've trained 3 dogs as an adult. I am confident in my ability to care for any animal for you. My schedule is about to go through some big changes, so my availability will vary. I'll likely be moving to part time, leaving me lots of time to care for your animals! I'm very situationally aware to ensure safety for your animal at home or on a walk. I am a fast learner and will always pay attention to your animal's safety.
About: I’ve been volunteering at shelters since I was a kid. I was in school for awhile to be a vet technician, but I’m currently taking some time off. I know how to administer medications, clip nails, give lots of love, & give general care for animals. I knew I wanted to work with animals after I worked at an animal shelter for half a year. I’ve never been more passionate about anything than how I am with animals. I can work with a set schedule or a schedule where you need me to step in and baby (animal) sit. I am open availability right now. I would prefer to go to your home rather than mine because I have a cat & a dog who are not very welcoming to new babies.

At your place, I like to go over your pet's favorite things to do there and see where the toys are kept!

I am capable of giving medication, going on walks, playing, bathing, feeding and help in training in basic skills such as sitting, shanking hands,etc. Currently working part time working with service animals as a kennel tech soon to be starting dog training internship.

There is usually always someone at home with the pets, If they ever have to be alone it is only for about an hour and a half for a doctors/ Therapy appointment. I have a loving 3 bedroom home with more then enough space to house your pet. The home offers a large back yard for the dogs to run and play. There are several dog parks and parks with in walking distance.

“I've known Rachel for many years and every time I need to go out of town or need her to go over during the day and check on kittens she is always there exactly when she says she's going to be she takes excellent care of my cats and my dogs. I'm so blessed to have such a responsible person in my life that I can trust with my animals when I go out of town. When I come home everyone has been taking care of everybody is happy and they always have fresh food and water she takes my dogs on walks so they get some exercise and she spends time loving on all my animals not just feeding them which is very important to me. My animals are like my family and there is nothing I wouldn't do for them and it's hard to find someone as responsible and caring as Rachel is that I know I can depend on. I never have to worry about them she always calls me and gives me updates and goes the extra mile to make sure that everyone is taken care of and is also getting lots of love and affection. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my animals it's hard to find someone that is so hard working and that cares for Animals as much as I do. She understands how important my animals are to my family and she always is there and available when I need her which is also a very important quality.”
