Pet care experience

I grew up with lots of dogs and will treat your pet like family:) I love being outside and would be so happy to take your doggo on nice, relaxed walks or fun little adventures — whatever fits their vibe! Whether they’re energetic and playful or more laid-back and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Your furry friend would be treated with love, with lots of attention, belly rubs, and genuine care. Happy to send photos and check ins when your pet is with me :)

Rachael was absolutely WONDERFUL and she truly went above and beyond!! She was very responsive, incredibly kind, and dependable. My senior dog was definitely in great hands and I appreciated all of the little updates and photos of the pets so much :)
