I currently work full-time at home so I'm able to be with the dogs if they come to my home. If dog walking is what you need, I have an hour long lunch each day and can come after 4pm as well.

Information Rachael K. would like to know about your pet

Animal behavior, if they have a tenancy to nip or bite. Their behavior towards other animals, adults, and children. Any sensitivities, allergies, nervousness, etc.? Allowed on furniture? Any training you are working with them on? Any weird quirks they have or things I can do to make them feel more comfortable?

A typical day

Neighborhood walks, walks to the park, fetch, treats, toys, and unconditional love. I allow my dog on the couch but if you don't want your dog getting comfortable up there please specify!

Pet care experience

I have fenced in backyard with room to run around. I'm a very loving person towards animals, they have a certain way of always making you feel special. I grew up with a golden retriever and she was the sweetest. I've had fish as well and care about them like I would a dog or cat. I now have my own puppers. She is a 3 year old German Shorthaired Pointer who loves meeting new dogs! I have been dog sitting for many years for family and friends. I used to stay at the owner's houses but now since I have my own dog I ask that the dogs come to my house. I am home most of the day. I love playing outside, going for walks and cuddling up with the pups. I love to meet new dogs and love learning about their breed and their personalities, they're all so different! Leaving your pets with me will guarantee them a fun safe time!

Rachael and her husband were amazing with Sapphire! She gave me plenty of updates and pictures of Sapphire. Sapphire loved playing with Lucia. Will definitely rebook!

Rachael and Eric are so good with our dogs. We were out of the country for ten days. Both dogs had health issues during our trip, but especially our older dog. Rachael took such good care of her and kept in constant contact with us. She reassured us that the dogs were ok so that we could still enjoy our trip.
