I can't wait to meet your pups!
Pet care experience
I have over two years of experience volunteering with the Greenhill Humane Society providing care for rabbits and dogs, but my passion lies with dogs. Currently I am a Tier 2 Dog Enrichment Professional at Greenhill, meaning I have taken multiple courses in dog behavior and fear free training. I also have a dog of my own, and have cared for animals of all types including mice, rabbits, insects, goats, chickens and amphibians. This gives me a thorough understanding of how the details of care vary from creature to creature. Since I grew up raised by a parent who was a dog trainer, with multiple dogs in my childhood home, caring for and training dogs comes naturally to me. I can't wait to meet your friend!
Reviews
Rachel was super sweet to my pets and i felt immediately comfortable with their services, as did the boys. Rachel made my concerns feel very heard, and was a reliable communicator. Will employ their services again!
Rachel did a great job keeping Frank, my senior rescue cat, fed and loved for the week I was away! The photos she shared with me were reassuring while I was on the other side of the country. Frank accepted Rachel easily and didn’t howl in the middle of the night as he has
Rachel is a wonderful person who absolutely adores my dog. She is professional, attentive, and caring!❤️🐾
Rachel is caring, knowledgeable, and most of all, loves my dog?? She has my highest recommendation.

When going for walks, I don't like to follow the same old path time and again. I like to take new turns and find new places to go, and that is what I will do when walking your pup! We will share in a sense of discovery that will keep your friend excited every time they see me walk in the door. For drop ins, I will enjoy spending time with your friend doing whatever they like to do best! For those that like to play and frolic, I will spend time romping around the yard with them. For more laid back friends, I will keep them company and give them all the love they need to make my visit a highlight of their day.
Information Rachel D. would like to know about your pet
Every pup has unique and different needs! I know how it feels leaving your pet in the hands of another person and wanting them receive the same quality of care as they would with you. I pay close attention to care instructions and make sure to send messages and photos so you can rest easy knowing your friend is in good hands. All breed types and personalities are embraced. If your dog is reactive in any way I will want to know so that we can work together on a plan to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.
A typical day
Getting to know your dog's unique and special personality is my favorite part of this job! For more active dogs, I love to play tug and go on adventures to new and exciting places. For more laid back dogs, I will keep them company with lots of quality time and pets.

Availability
I work full time during the week at a non profit in town, so I am available on weekday evenings starting after 5pm and all day on weekends. Unfortunately I am not able to accommodate regularly recurring bookings at this time. I am most available on a case by case basis for intermittent sits.
