Experienced and Caring Dog Sitter
Pet care experience
Hi Everyone! For 10+ years I have been spending my days with furry friends, and I love providing a home away from home for them. Being an avid runner, I love taking long walks or runs with high energy dogs, or watching them enjoy and explore my large fenced in yard. I began dog sitting for over night stays for friends and neighbors about 10 years ago, and recently started branching out to other references! I have my own dog walking/running business in Saint Paul, and work from home. I live in a house with a dog friendly open space and a large yard, and am so looking forward to taking the best care of your family members! I do have a 4 year old and 2 year old, so the dogs must be kid-friendly. I usually take them out 5-8 times a day, do breakfast and dinner per the instructions, and take them for walks at least once a day, runs if the owner recommends it. My goal is for people to be able to trust that their dogs will be in the best hands while they are away. Can't wait to meet you! Thanks :) Rachael
Reviews
Rachael was extremely responsive and very easy to work with, especially in terms of coordinating drop off and pick up times.
Rachael was amazing! Our pup seemed to really enjoy her stay. I've always been one of those dog owners who's hesitant to leave my pup with anyone new, but Rachael was awesome. I never once worried how things were going because she kept me updated with texts and photos throughout the stay, which I really enjoyed! She took our dog on runs most every day and seemed to genuinely care about every dog she had! Drop off and pick up was super easy, and she was very open to working with our schedules. Highly recommend Rachael to everyone!!!
Rachael took amazing care of our dogs -- she really focused on making a connection with them, and clearly brings a lot of experience. She expertly managed each of their little "quirks" and kept them both really happy. And she also stayed in close touch with us, so that we could relax and not worry. We can't recommend her enough!
Thanks for taking care of our puppy!

Information Rachael W. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences, but I like to know what the energy level of the dog is, and how they do with other dogs, I have watched up to three dogs at a time, but love one on one time and can work with owners to make sure their pup is getting adequate love and care!
A typical day
Per the owners recommendation and permission, I love taking them for long walks, midday pick me up runs, dog park visits, and time outside in my big backyard playing fetch the frisbee!

I am gone full time and care for the dogs throughout the day, taking walks, frequent breaks outside for the bathroom and fresh air, and any other specific needs the dog has.
