Information Rachael G. would like to know about your pet

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!

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.

Pet care experience

Hey, we are Rachael and Daniel! We are both vaccinated and boosted. 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 just recently got a 4 year Calico cat who is very friendly and laidback (she usually can stay with family if we have housesitting gigs). 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 and Daniel is an attorney who is currently working from home, 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 25% of your payment to local shelters as a way to pass it on. Can't wait to meet your pup or kitty!

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.
