Animals are better than people:)

Pet care experience

Hello, I’m Rachel. Proud mother of a loving Pomeranian named Ollie. I have adopted animals of all sorts since I was little. Ranging from big dogs, to small cats, to parrots... yes, parrots😂. I have experience in training different pets, giving necessary medications, and knowledge of the importance in maintaining good habits for the small loved ones. I love animals the way your labradoodle loves you. My dream is to make a full time job of taking long walks with someone who’s happy to see me everyday, even if it’s only to clean up the presents they leave behind on the sidewalk for me;)

Rachel was or is amazing. She took great care for my dog and she even sent me text photos throughout the day to show me she was having fun. I would use her again, w/o question. I wished she lived in my hometown.

Rachel did an excellent job. She messaged us with photos of our dogs the whole time we were gone. Our house looked better than we left it when we returned. Most importantly, our doggies were happy, healthy and had been well entertained. We recommend her and would have her again. She is a sweet girl.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is a welcoming, smoke free environment. I currently live with my mother and two younger siblings who love animals ALMOST as much as I do. We own a small dog who sleeps in my bed and minds her own business. We also have a cat who hangs around outside. She is old and doesn’t cause problems. We have an open yard with a caged fence area with plenty of room to explore. (We are always stocked with treats:))

Just give me an update on your animals health care and behavioral tendencies before our time together, and I will be sure to tend to their every need.

A typical day

With a 3 acre yard to roam around, your pet is most definitely not going to be bored. My driveway is long and perfect for walks that don’t require being beside the highway or street. My dog loves to explore the pond down below my house, and I’m sure she’d love to show a new friend about!

I am currently between jobs and not sure what to do with my life. A weird place called “adulthood”. Considering going back to school, and also my regular same routine in a 8-5 job. Currently open to all possible hours because I need some sort of income while I make these changes. This business seemed to be the perfect opportunity.
