My days are free to give my full attention and time dedicated to the dogs ! I prefer to walk where possible but also have a car where needed/for rainy days. I tend to spend the day in either Victoria park and London fields but on days where I am less busy we can do excursions further afield. The rest of the day can be spent lounging around with me in our very comfortable home, playing games and sunbathing in the garden. Very much home from home environment for your dogs which is exactly what I needed for mine who found large day cares too stimulating and quite stressful !

Pet care experience
After having my own two dogs for the last 12 years I realise how hard it is to truly trust handing over your most precious pooches and much loved family members to people you don’t know. I rarely felt comfortable leaving my best friends with anyone which is tricky when we all lead such busy lives and with so many of us living without family members close by ready to help. Therefore I hope to be able to fill this space ! To ensure you feel your dogs are in the safest and kindest of hands whilst under my care. I have lost both of mine these last two years and our home doesn’t feel the same without a joyful wagging tail to wake up to so I promise you the dogs under my loving care will be absolutely doted on and treated as our own. I will enjoy their company immensely and hope to build a great rapport and friendship with all the dogs I look after. In the words of Ricky Gervais ‘dogs are the best invention in the world ever’ and I couldn’t agree more. I grew up with our own dogs and my own ponies as well as amongst an array of animals as my grandparents/uncle owned a working farm. Therefore I love nothing more than being surrounded by animals and feel at ease in their company. And I believe they do mine too ! I spend most days between London Fields and Victoria Park so your furry friends can come along with me for just walks or spend the whole day by my side. I have experience bringing up our frenchie and then our whippet so feel very in tune with bull breeds and sighthounds but adore and have been among most breeds. My daughter and I fostered dogs and I volunteered with street dogs in SE Asia so am used to large packs and varying temperaments. However I plan on offering a more personal, bespoke service keeping low numbers of dogs who I see frequently. That way we become very good friends and hopefully the dogs feel very happy and content in my care. And I want all my owners to feel reassured their dogs will not only be well cared for, doted on and enjoyed but will also have their needs met and be very safe and comfortable out on walks or living amongst us in our loving home. My frenchie had a lot of health issues after contracting canine meningitis aged 3 so I am used to giving many forms of medication and caring for dogs with extra needs. I am also a big fan of the oldies after watching and caring for mine in their golden years. Happy to take things a little slower with them and shower them with love. Rest assured your dogs will be in the best care. Please do get in touch !
Reviews

10/10- Rachael (and her lovely daughter!) were wonderful! First time leaving our Twiggs with he, but he clearly had a ball from the get-go and came back exhausted-- he didn’t even look for his dinner which is not like him!!! Rachael has a really lovely calm way and clearly adores dogs- she also took very considerate initiative and didn’t feed him his daily chicken twist treat that we left with her for him, just incase he choked on it- this shows how experienced, caring and thoughtful she is. When we picked twiggy up he was still bouncing and playing between lying on the variety of sofas…. I think he’ll be very happy to return ASAP!

Rachael was excellent with my dog Mochi, and she took great care of him, she provided great updates, and he seemed sad to go when it came time for collection! I would very happily leave Mochi with her again.
I wouldn't trust anyone else but Rachael with my dog Reggie. He always comes back happy and sufficiently tired from his walks, and I know he is well looked after. It's great to know he is in such good care
I would highly recommend Rachel as a dog walker - she is friendly, professional, accommodating and very reliable. Rachel was keen to meet and greet in advance of the first walk and sends reassuring updates on walk days. It is obvious that she is a dog lover and really enjoys her job!
