Safety, trust & environment
I am pretty flexible with the care that is needed for each dog. For example I understand if certain dogs have boundaries. Our dog is familiar with gated areas, as he does not go downstairs to the basement. For dogs that pull, I highly recommend harnesses where the leash clips in front of the chest. This turns the dog towards you when they pull. I also recommend long leashes to encourage exploration and enrichment (when it's safe of course!). Keep in mind, pets are not to be kept outside for long below temps of 32F and above 90F.
Ratings and reviews
Sent several pictures of Luna doing her activities which was so nice. She spent time with my dog and even got her to eat her dinner!

Rachel A. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Rachel is absolutely reliable and consistent with the amazing care she gives

Rachel responded quickly to a last-minute need and was able to work within the time frame I requested for three days in a row. She took great photos and left messages regarding the care she gave.

Great with my dog and pupppy!

I highly recommend Rachel! She is great with my pups!

Schedule
I currently work part-time during nights so I am available during afternoons on weekdays. Saturdays are up in the air, but I will always let you know if my schedule doesn't work out. I no longer accept bookings for Sundays. Rates are based on Rover fees.
