Every dog’s best friend is a human!

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a little girl. Being the caretaker of my 7lb chihuahua Bort is the most fulfilling role I play. My boyfriend and I have also adopted a German Shepherd mix, Rex and he loves running on the trails and finding hikes with us. I am very intentional about providing the best care for my dogs and research everything from diet to exercise. I am a musician and find that music is very soothing to dogs and always sing and play guitar for my pups. I grew up with dogs and also have experience fostering dogs. Every new city I have moved to I always volunteer at the local animal shelter taking pictures of dogs, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and loved while in the care of the shelter before they find their forever home.

Rachel was patient and kind, as our dog has separation anxiety and doesn't like to be away from us! She handled it very well, and he was happy and calm when we came to pick him up that afternoon!

Lark had a great day hanging out with Rachel's 2 dogs and going on a neighborhood hike. She came home totally pooped and happy.

Rachel is awesome! She just walked out Golden Retriever for the first time and I’m super happy we found her. She was right on time, a great communicator and sent a ton of photos. I would gladly work with Rachel again!!

I run everyday and love taking my German shepherd mix with me. The chihuahua prefers cuddles on the couch! They are both great with other dogs and we take them to the dog park in town often. My boyfriend and I have a condo with no yard but trails right out the door.

Information Rachel E. would like to know about your pet

I am comfortable and knowledgeable about both large and small breeds. I have owned and taken care of the following breeds; german shepherd, terrier, chihuahua, and lab mixes. I have no breed preferences and love all dogs! How does your dog do with other dogs? What kinds of treats do they like? Please let me know any specific needs, preferences, or specifics you and your dog would like to share for our time together. Anything to ensure you and your dog have the best visit!

A typical day

I love finding new trails all around summit county! I am an endurance athlete and have much more fun on my runs when I am with a dog. I take both my pups to the dog park as well and also enjoy long walks and hikes.
