Pet care experience

Treat your pup or cat like a queen

Hey, we are Rachael and Daniel. We have had dogs our entire lives and have also volunteered at adoption events, fostered animals, and watch friends' dogs all the time - can't get enough! We have a sweet 8 year old Calico who gets along really well with dogs! We also recently rescued Luana from Hawaii about a year ago. Please note we are still getting Luana used to things, so a meet and greet is necessary for boarding. We love all animals from giant crazy puppies to shy senior citizens. If we are walking or watching your pet, you can trust they will gets tons of cuddles and attention, and you will get plenty of updates and pics : ) Rachael works from home for a software company, so we have a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care, and we are happy to customize our schedules to whatever your pet needs. Also, we will donate half of your payment to local shelters as a way to pass it on. Can't wait to meet your pup or kitty!

They're both so great. You can tell they're animal people through and through, and I felt like they really cared about my cat. In addition to being great at the logistics (the communication, tasks, scheduling, and handling things that came up), the updates were thorough, the pictures were plentiful, and I simply feel like my grumpy cat was happier for having them as sitters.

Rachael was fantastic!! She clearly “gets” cats, and she and Zidane seemed to really hit it off. She was really flexible and kept us up to date on how the visits were going. We came home to a tidy house and a happy cat, what more could we ask for?

Rachael was a great house sitter and took really good care of our cat. She was very communicative and responsive. Can’t recommend highly enough!

We cannot recommend Rachael and Daniel highly enough. They helped us out incredibly last minute and could not have been nicer to work with. They doted on our elderly cat for a full week, and under their care Squirmy seemed to perk up quite a bit. They were very responsive, communicative, and sensitive to our concerns. We would work with them again in a heartbeat.

Rachael was so great with my puggle! She is an experienced dog owner and I felt very safe leaving him with her during my weekend away. She sent me photos and updates daily. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again and highly recommend her to other dog owners.

Safety, trust & environment

We are more than happy to customize our care to whatever your pet needs (e.g. leash reactive, medical needs, etc.) as every animal is different! For boarding, noting we do have our own sweet pup and cat who get along with most dogs, but we do require a meet and greet to make sure everyone will be happy and comfortable together.

Pets

A typical day

I love taking pups to get some nature in the nearest park, showing them around the city if they are extroverted, or cuddling at home if they need to chill! With cats we love giving them attention and a nice quiet home to relax in and as much snuggles as they do or do not want!

I'd love to know how they are around other dogs/cats, if they need any medications, what their walk/feeding schedule should be. The more information the better!
