Snuggles or hikes, im ready for it!
Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Rachael, Mother of 3 with a small farm. Growing up I have had animals of my own and fostered many. I've volunteered at an animal rescue for 5 years, a dog groomer of 5 years, and experience at vet office and doggy day care for many years. I have been doing dog care at my home, and others for about 7 years and I love it. My favorite part of working with animals is being able to build connections with them, make them feel as comfortable as they can while their parents are away. Experience with diabetic dogs/cats, epilepsy, blind and senior pets. I would love some new hiking and swimming buddies or just some snuggle time!
Reviews
Rachael took such good care of our two pups for a weekend, it was clear they had an amazing time and would be very happy going back (we got such great update pictures as well). We felt super comfortable knowing they were having a great time while we were away.
Rachael was amazing with my dog! She kept me update with how she was doing throughout the visit and I will be using her for the foreseeable future.
Our pooches have such a wonderful time with Rachel and her family! It is so nice to have a family that really gets our wrestle-loving pitties and all the tug-of-war and cuddles they demand from their humans. We have used Rachel before, and we will many more times.
Rachael and her family were amazing with our Westie, Argie; absolutely fantastic. They were warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Their genuine love for animals was immediately apparent, and they worked to ensure Argie felt cherished and engaged throughout her stay. Rachael provided delightful photo updates, capturing a balance of some playful adventures as well as more tranquil moments, allowing us to see that Argie was not only safe, but that she was having a great time. Argie returned to us happy and content, a clear testament to the excellent care she received.
