Safety, trust & environment

For drop-in visits and walks, I follow your dog's routine and your instructions closely. I pay attention to each dog's individual needs, energy level, and behavior, and I communicate clearly with you after every visit.

Information Rachel D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you pets have any special behavioral needs. If I need to adjust my approach to them, it's important I understand that ahead of time.

A typical day

I like to think of dog walks as sniffing adventures. They obviously need to complete their business, but getting outside and sniffing around is stimulating for them. I also love to play tug and fetch with toys inside.

Pet care experience

I've cared for dogs at every life stage for 25 years, including a senior dog who needed daily medication and help with mobility. I know how to move at a dog's pace — not mine. I walk dogs solo, so your dog always has my full attention. No pack walking, no distractions. I currently have a dog-reactive dog, which means I'm always aware of the environment, reading body language, and making smart decisions on the fly — every single walk.

My crazy puppy loved Rachel from the start at their meet & greet. She was incredible and filled my needs last minute <3

As a first-time Rover user I was nervous, but Rachel put me at ease. You could tell she cared and wanted to provide the best service and attention to my pup. Highly recommend!

Rachel is a true pet lover! She has taken care of our dog, cat, guinea pig, and fish. She has especially bonded with our dog, Tim, who adores her and brings her toys every time she comes over. Rachel is reliable, punctual, and responsible, and we trust her completely with our pet's care.
