Pet care experience

Attentive care and love.

Important note: We paused dog sitting services due to having a baby in 2023. Our baby is now a toddler (2.5 yo) and is in daycare weekdays. We will coordinate daycare times so there is no contact with your pet unless discussed beforehand. He is good with our dogs, but we know that toddlers can be scary 😊 We have had cats for over 20 years and dogs for the last 9. We raised our corgi from puppyhood and adopted our mini schnauzer. The schnauzer had prior trauma and we learned how to slowly acclimate her to our social and active lifestyle. You would not know she ever had trouble making eye contact or coming up to strangers before. We have taken care of friends dogs over the years including an elderly dog with additional meds and care needed. I work from home and we have a fenced yard for potty breaks. We also have a safe neighborhood for walks. Our cat is used to dogs, and we gate off a room so they can be separate if needed. Our dogs are very friendly and we ask that only friendly dogs join us. I currently work from home 2 days a week and Chris 5 days a week. We feed our dogs and cats separately and 2x per day. Our dogs have free access to most of the house and so would your pup unless otherwise specified. They are let out regularly and always have water access. We usually walk early in the morning and in the afternoon. Happy to accommodate your pet’s needs as well. Cat food and litter are inaccessible to the dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced yard and 2 friendly pups for your dog to play with. Our house is pretty well dog-proofed since our Corgi attempts to get into everything.

Rachael was amazing. She and her husband took care of my kitty. My cat is fairly high maintenance with an injection medication and an oral medication, but Rachael handled it so well! My cat takes a while to warm up to people, but he felt very comfortable with Rachael. When I returned home, he was relaxed and happy. Thank you Rachael for everything!

Rachael cared for my dog Jackson while I was away on a work trip. She's great! Jackson injured himself and Rachael was very communicative and took him to the vet - she took great care of him and it made me feel at ease that he was in great hands!

I was very pleased with the care my dog received. Rachael was a pleasure to deal with and I would definitely use her again.

Rachael has the biggest heart! I’m not sure who would be more fulfilled, your pet or Rachael??! Rachael is a very kind, compassionate, and responsible person. She is passionate about helping others, and caring for those in need. She has cared for our very dependent and anxious toy poodle. She found ways to make him feel comfortable so that he would eat and sleep while we were away. We trust her to be responsible with our plans and agreements, and know that she will be there for us when we need her!
