I work from home so I am always home! I also have a backyard where they can run around whenever they want. I usually leave the door cracked for easy in/out access and I have a fully fenced in yard

I have a fenced in yard and do frequent potty breaks! If your dog is crate trained I can keep them on whatever schedule they are used to at home. Throughout the years I’ve had to administer my fair share of medication so if your dog needs any medication I would be more than happy to administer! If they come to my home, they will always have a friend to play with since I have 2 dogs myself 🙂

Pet care experience

Hi! I have taken care of dogs almost my entire life. I got my first dog when I was 12 and from there on out I have always had at least one. I have always pet sit for family and friends when needed and now I’m looking forward to expanding my services to others. I live in a home and have a fenced in yard. I am used to giving medications if needed and can also care for senior dogs (I have one myself!) I have 2 dogs as of now so your dog will always have someone to play with 😊 I work from home so I am home nearly all day unless I have an errand to run

I recommend Rachel as a dog sitter and caregiver. She has years of hands-on experience owning and caring for multiple dogs, including her current 13-year-old Yorkie mix, and she recently rescued a Ukrainian Shepherd—something that takes patience, consistency, and a lot of heart. Rachel is extremely attentive to routines, behavior, and each dog’s individual needs. Her current house is suited for dog care with a back yard with turf and area to run or sunbathe. Rachel is very mindful about nutrition, preparing natural raw ingredients and weighing meals to keep portions consistent and healthy. Dogs feel safe around her because she’s calm, observant, and proactive. She treats every dog like family and takes their wellbeing seriously. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely caring, Rachel is the person you want. Rachel has been a close companion for almost a decade and has watched my Boston Terrier.

Rachel takes incredible care of my two dogs whenever I’m away. She gives them so much love, attention, and patience that I never have to worry while I’m gone. She keeps them on their routine, makes sure they get plenty of playtime, and always sends updates so I know they’re happy and doing well. She truly does a fantastic job!!
