Zoo volunteer and animal lover! 🐶❤
Pet care experience
I volunteer at the Santa Barbara Zoo and love being around animals. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and sitting multiple at once. I am comfortable cleaning, taking them on walks/hikes, and providing play and affection! At my own home, I care for Honey, my senior chihuahua. I also have experience with other animals like fish, and you can see a picture of my aquarium on my profile! Additionally, as part of my training at the Santa Barbara Zoo, I took a course in Animal Welfare to help me spot signs of stress in animals.
Reviews
After knowing Rachel for a long time, I can confidently say that her love for animals, and their well-being, as well as her need to keep cleanliness is unmatched. She treats all pets, even her fish, like her own children. She is very attentive, and I know she should be everyone's first choice in your dog sitting needs.
Rachel was quick to respond. Took great care of Maverick. This was her first walk with him and won't be her last. If you are looking for someone who is attentive, quick to respond, and gives you great pics along the way, use Rachel and thank me later
Rachel has loved dogs all her life. She grew up with dogs and has always helped care for them. She has been reliable with walking, feeding, and spending quality time with our dogs. Rachel prides herself on being a trustworthy, reliable, and punctual person that can be relied upon to care for our precious pets.

Safety, trust & environment
I have experience dogsitting for a private client when they were away from home, which included staying overnights, housekeeping, and caring for their four dogs. I am punctual, reliable, and will keep your space clean. I reply to texts quickly and would be happy to send you photos of your pet!
Information Rachel D. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any special needs (e.g. a special diet, exercise regimen, etc), let me know! I will be happy to accommodate any requests!
A typical day
I’d be happy to take your dog out on walks, and even take them out down to Malibu Creek State Park. Alternatively, depending on your dog’s needs, we can just stay home and relax! Your pet will be sure to receive lots of affection and attention.
