21 Yrs of Loving, Reliable Dog Care

I’ve lived with police dogs since I was born, fostered big and small pets and been the designated sitter for my neighborhood since I was old enough to walk! This year is my first year being alive and not owning or living with a dog, so I am eager to make friends with every dog I see. From high energy puppies to older sweethearts with strict medication routines, I’ve seen and worked with it all.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard, no pets currently. We have had pets in the past in our home, so it is very pet proof with breakable items put away and open area to run around. This is a very dog friendly house where we welcome cuddles on the couch or a shared bed if that’s what your pet is more comfortable with.

Rachel is amazing with my senior dog who needs lots of attention and patience. She’s gentle, caring, and treats Bailey like her own, always full of praise and encouragement. He absolutely adores her, and I completely trust her with his care. Couldn’t ask for a better friend for my pup💖

I can’t recommend Rachel enough! She did an amazing job taking care of my high-energy golden retriever for an entire week. My dog is a bundle of excitement, and it’s not easy to keep him engaged and exercised, but Rachel handled it like a pro. Every day, I came home to a happy, tired pup who clearly enjoyed his walks and playtime. She sent regular updates, photos, and even a video or two, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she wasn’t just showing up to do the basics—Rachel really took the time to connect with my dog and make sure he was getting the attention he needed. What really stood out to me was Rachel’s patience and understanding of my dog’s personality. She took the time to learn his quirks and play style, and it was clear he trusted and loved spending time with her. Knowing my dog was in such great hands made my week so much easier. I’ll absolutely be reaching out to Rachel again whenever I need a dog walker!

Let me know if your pet has any history of frequent accidents. I am in a rental house with hardwood floors, so I would likely need to block off that area just incase of an emergency.
