Rachel was a great host to my dog, Aurora and gave her plenty of love, play, and snuggles while I was out of town. She sent plenty of photos and updates everyday, and it completely put my mind at ease knowing she was in great care from a true dog lover.

Rachael was great! She was sure to share her home with my dog and make sure he was comfortable. She sent lots of photos and videos. I would definitely consider leaving my precious pup with her again.

Information Rachael C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any favorite activities, behavioral quirks, sleeping preferences, or other notable likes/dislikes. I will make sure they are comfortable, even being away from their human!

A typical day

Canine enrichment goes beyond just play and exercise - mental stimulation is equally important for doggos to have a well balanced, enriched life. Hide and seek games, treat scavenger hunts, walks at their pace, and walking different routes are all easy ways to exercise a pups brain as well as body. Living in the Barton Hills neighborhood provides so many opportunities for new walk adventures, play at Zilker, hiking the green belt, swimming at Barking Springs, etc
