Safety, trust & environment

I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions, to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Safety is always my top priority — I supervise pets closely, use leashes during walks, and keep spaces secure and hazard-free. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated with regular messages and photos.

Information Rachel B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should know about. My only preference is dog friendly for my Dougie.

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of attention, activity, and downtime. Since I work from home, pets are never left alone for long and get lots of interaction throughout the day. We spend time in the yard for fresh air and play, go on long walks, and enjoy enrichment activities like games, toys, and mental stimulation. Of course, there’s always time for snuggles and relaxation so pets feel comfortable, happy, and right at home.

Pet care experience

https://www.rover.com/sit/racheb16940 Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up surrounded by dogs and truly can’t imagine life without them. I’ve had my own dog, Dougie, since he was a puppy, so I understand firsthand the care, patience, and consistency dogs need at every stage of life. We’re a very active household — regular hikes, dog beach trips, long walks, and plenty of outdoor time are part of our routine. That said, I’m just as happy providing calm companionship, belly rubs, and lots of snuggles for dogs who prefer a slower pace. I pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and safety-focused. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and any special needs, and I always make sure dogs feel comfortable, secure, and loved while they’re in my care. Friends and family often trust me with their pets because they know I treat every dog like my own. Whether your dog needs exercise, structure, or simply a friendly face and extra affection, I’m here to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!

Rachel is the one person I completely trust to care for my Charlie. She consistently goes above and beyond, treating her with the same love and attention as if she were her own. Charlie struggles with separation anxiety, but Rachel’s patience, kindness, and genuine care make all the difference. I truly don’t know what I’d do without her—I'd be lost without the incredible care she provides. I always feel at ease knowing she’s in such capable and compassionate hands.

Rachel has been walking Coco since I moved into a new house! Coco loves the walks and is much more content since Rachel started working with her! Really appreciate Rachel and her great way with Coco!
