Pet care experience

I am a loving fur mama. I absolutely adore my pets and will show yours the same exact love. I can help with potty training and basic commands. At least 3 walks a day and at least one long trip to the dog park to play with our friends is an essential part of our daily routine. I am a veteran and I am currently just doing online school so I will be home all day with your fur babies. I just moved into an apartment complex with a beautiful dog park and lots of places to run and play. We have a very tight knit group of dog mamas over here who do daily dog park hangouts. If your dog is not comfortable with that I can always take them with just me :) I do have two dogs of my own one is a 5 year old pit lab mix and the other is a 4 month old Siberian husky. They are very loving and playful dogs. Being that I have two of my own I do ask that when you drop your dog off you drop them off with just me at the dog park in my apartment complex. That way I can bond with them and play with them and then you can take off. I will bring my dogs down to meet them after that. I find it’s better for them to meet outside in a space where your baby is comfortable and mine aren’t being territorial or bossy in the house. My dogs are not aggressive by any means…I do this as a precaution and to make everyone super comfortable. They will form a bit of a bond in the park. Then we will go for a little pack walk with some of the neighbor hood dogs too and then come home as a little pack. I also have a cat who minds his business and hides all day. I am very open to the dos and don'ts for your pets (no furniture, certain eating and potty times ect) your dog will have an awesome time and so will I. Extra points for cuddlers because we love cuddles! I am flexible to time changes and can be trusted to come to your home. Oh and we love puppies!!!

Rachael is by far, hands down the best sitter experience we’ve had on Rover! Our dog Milo loved his stay with her and her pups! She is for sure our regular from here on out! My new concern is making sure she’s not booked solid from here on out! LOL! Yes, she’s that good! She definitely treats and loves Milo like her own. Trust me when I say you won’t go wrong! We already booked Milo’s next stay with Rachael!

Rachael was excellent! She was very communicative, and so intentional with introducing our pup to hers so our dog was comfortable in her home. Would absolutely recommend!
