I help walk my roommate’s two dogs. I make sure their water is full and sometimes feed them. I let the puppy out in the backyard and play. Lots of catch involved between both dogs.

Pet care experience

I’ve always been obsessed with dogs. I grew up with 2. I say hi to every dog I see. I also love cats, especially ones you love to be pet. I’m just an all around dog lover!

Rachael was absolutely outstanding! From the moment she accepted the booking, she was incredibly responsive and communicative. Throughout the three days she cared for Parker, she kept me updated regularly, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She took Parker on multiple walks each day, made sure she was well cared for, and clearly treated her as if she were her own. When I returned home, everything was in perfect condition—my home was exactly as I had left it. Rachael is a true professional and an easy 10 out of 10. Reliable, trustworthy, caring, and attentive, she exceeded every expectation. I will absolutely be using her again and consider her my go-to pet care provider from here on out. Highly recommend!

I had to travel into town with my dog and it was going to be long work days. I was relieved to find Rachael and meet her — knowing my dog would be well cared for! Highly recommended her to others!

Rachel was an amazing pet and house sitter. She was extremely responsive & accommodating. Rachel managed two dogs and two cats with ease. We will absolutely be requesting Rachel again!
