Safety, trust & environment

At this time I am only caring for pets in clients homes. I am comfortable walking dogs, providing cat play time or dog playtime outdoors. I have an suv so in an emergency that is available.

Information Rachel B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any specific personality traits I need to keep in mind. I know some animals scare easily, are shy or if something makes them act out. Additionally I will use any training words you have already established to help cement the behavior you have already worked on.

A typical day

Depending on your dog a brisk walk, playtime with their favorite toys or a good belly rub would keep them engaged. I like to walk dogs in their own neighborhood but will change up the path each time to keep them interested in their environment. My cat’s currently play fetch so I am used to engaging with animals constantly.

Dependable & Reliable Animal Mom

Pet care experience

I have had multiple dog breeds in my life. Boxers, Dachshund, English Bull Dog, Schnauzer, Labs, Rottweiler and a Jack Russell Terrier. I also take care of my moms German Shephard and my daughters Frenchie when needed. I am very comfortable around dogs and have trained many in my life, through positive reinforcement. I currently have 5 cats. One I have to administer asthma treatments too and 2 that get pills daily. I also have a scaredy cat and manage to keep my agressive personality female from beating up everyone else. I recently adopted a cat with 3 legs named Charlotte (her leg was broken when she was rescued) and navigated a hind leg amputation due to cancer for my girl Nelly. I am not afraid to provide your babies with the same love and care. I will wash all food or water bowls daily. I am not afraid to clean a litter box or take apart and wash a fountain. I love animals and would be honored to help with yours. I pet sit all over New York and New Jersey and am comfortable with commuting but I also have an suv.

Rachel was very responsible, responsive and took care in making sure my little guy was taken care of and got some attention while I was I was away. Thanks so much!

Rachel is amazing. She took such wonderful care of both of my babies. Since Magnesium needs daily IV fluids, it is hard to find someone who is comfortable with that and can help him stay calm during the process. Rachel handled it with so much care and patience, and I felt very reassured knowing they were in good hands.
