Rachel can care for
Availability
I'm currently in evening classes so other than that I have most weekdays free for walks at whatever time is most convenient for you. For housesitting, I would need time to attend those classes and walk my own dog but would be able to not leave your dog unattended for more than 2 hours at a time.

Pet care experience
I grew up with a high-energy Siberian husky and a large mutt (~80 lbs) who were both dog reactive. I learned how to handle them from as soon as I was strong enough to not get pulled into the street! I loved taking them on runs, hikes, long walks, and pretty much anything outdoors. I currently have a two-year-old golden retriever mix at home who loves people, playing, dog parks, hikes, loafing on the couch, and lots of attention (all of which I am more than happy to provide for her). I was recently laid off and am returning to school to get EMT certified soon, so I have a lot of free time to care for your dog! I have housesat for friends with smaller dogs in the past as well and would welcome the opportunity to housesit any size dog :) I am located near town center market in Riverdale Park and have a car.
Reviews
Rachel is extremely caring and thoughtful, providing daily updates and photos while we were away. I feel like I can relax when Rachel is taking care of Dairy and that Dairy enjoys their time together too!
Rachel was easy-going, communicative, and a pleasure to work with. We knew our dogs were in good hands.
Rachel is awesome! She watched our dog on a last-minute request when we were supposed to be going out of town and our pup came down with a stomach virus. Rachel took amazing care of her, helping with her meds and spending some quality time with her while she recovered. I would 100% recommend Rachel and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!
Rachel is a loving caretaker for our young dog, using positive reinforcement and good fun, she is sure to follow your instructions, but can be trusted for a long walk, adventure, or playtime. She also cares for cats and fish.
