Dogs are objectively the best.
Pet care experience
Hey there! Hanging out with dogs always makes my top 3 favorite things to do list. They're objectively the best. I grew up with a Calvin the Golden Retriever, Joe the boxer, and then Porkchop whose breed is tbd, maybe a Red Heeler or maybe a T-Rex. I was always responsible for them and loved every minute of it. Porkchop and Joe would go on runs with me! (If you have a dog capable of running, please tell me!) I am now the proud owner of a 5 year old Golden Retriever, Hobbes. He is the ultimate goober. I am pretty active with him. (Much to his dismay sometimes, big chill guy Hobbes.) He heads to the mountains with me to play in the snow, paddle boarding in the summer and lots lounging in the parks in Seattle. I have been dog sitting/walking for families that I babysit for. I have dog sat for extended amounts, two weeks+. I have experience taking pups to the vet and experience with older dogs who need medication and special care. Also I have dog sat for four different Labrador Retrievers of all various ages...I feel like that has prepared me for literally anything. I'm energetic and loving and flexible.
Reviews
Rachel was awesome! She took great care of Boris and multiple trips to the park, he was exhausted after our weekend away. She was easy to communicate with and quick to respond, would highly recommend.
Rachel is the best dogsitter! She takes care of the bups as if they were her own, with love and patience. The dogs love her so much, thanks Rach!

In my home pups are immediately treated like they're part of our crew. They aren't left alone for lengthy times. We have a large secure patio and fun long hall ways to do zoomies back and forth.

Information Rachel D. would like to know about your pet
How is your dog with other dogs when on leash? Does your dog try to run outside when you open the door to your home? How to utilize treats? What are your dogs quirks? (Ex Hobbes sits down in protest when he realizes we are headed home)
A typical day
Love to run with dogs and my retriever is noooot about it. So would absolutely love a running dogbuddy. I enjoy walking around volunteer park and adjacent neighborhoods with the pups.

I work from home and ideally would love to meet a few pups to have a standing walk, dog day care or home check in's with during the week.
