My dogs are pretty neutral with other dogs. Me and my husband have also worked with dogs as three of our last few jobs. So we are very well versed in knowing dog behavior.

If there are any medications or special needs your dog has, please let me know semi in advance and write it all out descriptively please !

A typical day

First thing I do in my day is let the dogs out in the morning. That can vary from a normal 15-30 min walk or a longer park time some days. I’m becoming more invested in their nutrition as well so that’s one of my favorite parts of the day is feeding. I usually fit in a bit of training time for them (I have a service dog and a rescue) . This is all amongst other things I have to do in a day. And then they will go out for quick potty walks later in the day. We love taking our dogs to big open fenced areas. And going on trails with them. If this is something you’d like I can take them with or just by themself! I will not do a park that doesn’t have totally secure fencing. Unless I have your dog on leash Other things I can offer: Pool time- I have a dog pool I can bring if you have a hose. It fits my Pyrenees and Rottweiler Dog park/ fenced dog trails: will take your dogs to different parks I know of. I will not take them if they are super reactive. And I can take my dogs with as well, or you can say no. Play/training time: if you just need your dogs to get some exercise or stimulation Grooming: I can clip nails and give baths. I’m not a professional but I’m pretty good at those two things

Pets

Pet first aid and CPR certified!

Pet care experience

I’ve worked with many different types of animals. From special needs dogs, (and regular needs) to horses, birds and bunnies etc. I am well versed in animal care, having worked with animals in all my jobs. I’ve done insulin shots, oral medications and other types, for all animals. I prefer not to spend the night for multiple day bookings if possible, I just have my own four dogs at home!

Rach was absolutely amazing! She bonded with our animals almost instantly and took very good care of them!! Thank you for watching after our furry family members. :-)

Rach puts her heart and soul into the animals she cares for. Her being trained in Pet first aid and CPR is such a comfort. With her long history of caring for animals big and small I know she will be able to care for any animal she has the chance too.

Rachel is a true dog lover and has a deep understanding of their needs. Her experience with animals runs deep, from her childhood parrot, taking care of horses, to her current dogs, has given her the knowledge and skills to care for them and help them thrive. I know that Rachel would be an excellent candidate to help the Rover team. Her compassion for animals, her understanding of their needs, and her experience with them would be invaluable assets to the team. She is a true dog and animal whisperer. I am confident that Rachel would be a valuable asset to the Rover team and that she would make a significant contribution to the Rover team's mission and values.
