Pet care experience

Animal Lover to my Core 💕

I grew up around dogs and have spent years specializing in large breeds with behavioral issues. Both of my current dogs were adopted with specific needs, so I’m well-equipped to handle any breed or training level—from high-strength large dogs to the unique personalities of smaller breeds. If you have a “difficult” pup, I’m more than happy to step in and help! Feel free to check out my reviews; I’d love to meet you and your dogs and see if we’re a good fit.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Back home I took precautions to make sure that our dogs didn’t get inti anything dangerous, and typically walk my dogs four times a day if possible to make sure they are mentally stimulated. When looking after your pets I will make sure to be attentive and thorough with my services.

House Sitting • juil. 13, 2026

Rachael did such an incredible job watching my two frenchies, Dallas and Nix. They seemed to enjoy her energy and care and I came home to a beautifully clean house and happy dogs. That's all I can ask for. She sent regular pictures and updates and navigated any challenges on her own which I so appreciated. Cant wait to use her again when I travel again.

Rachael did an excellent job caring for my cats during our July 4th trip! She was communicative, detail oriented, and thoughtful about their needs throughout. Would definitely recommend working with her.

I can’t recommend Rachael enough! She is incredibly thoughtful, caring, and attentive. From the moment she started watching Leo, I knew he was in the best hands. She genuinely looks out for him, pays attention to his needs, and treats him like he’s her own. Leo absolutely loves her, and I’m so grateful to have found someone who cares for him so genuinely!

My cats love Rachael, & she gave my very large cat oral meds. A win for sure!

Rachel was great with our dog. She was always on time, was great communicating, and our dog was very well taken care of.
