Constant attention and play!

Pet care experience

I am one of those people who LOVES dogs and will give your dog unconditional love and affection! I am that person that finds a dog wherever I go and will love and play with the dog until I absolutely have to leave. I've been caring for my own and other's dogs for 10 years, and have experience with training therapy dogs as well. I am currently pursuing my doctoral degree. I'm quite flexible with scheduling and will do whatever is needed! I have reliable transportation and am willing to take your dog to any local parks if you are comfortable! I understand how hard it is for someone to leave their puppy being part of their family, and will definitely send daily pictures and updates. I look forward to working with you and meeting your wonderful dogs! Please note: I am allergic to cats, so am unable to accept any requests that include cat care. Sorry for the inconvenience!

8/11/2021 Rachel watched our 2 girls, Lola 11, and Boo 11 months for 5 days, and stayed at our house. We have traveled and used Rover and also had neighborhood people stay at our home for travel. Rachel did the best of anyone we have worked with. Rachel took Boo to North Park to hike and visit the dog park. She sent pictures every day, and I could simply see on the dog's faces, that they loved Rachel. my wife Lynne and I would give Rachel the highest possible rating and recommendation. Rachel is a student in pursuit of a higher level degree, and she is outstanding in everything she does. - Lynne and Terry O

Rachel did a wonderful job with Riley while we were away. She took her on walks, gave her plenty of love and play time, and sent lots of photos. I would love to use her again!

Rachel did a wonderful job caring for our dog Jack. We were very at ease knowing Rachel was with Jack while we were away. We look forward to future trips knowing jack will be in good hands!

Information Rachel F. would like to know about your pet

I love to have a daily routine, and also enjoy written out directions, in case I ever forget anything. I require to have to veterinarian’s name, number, and location in advance, in case of emergency.

A typical day

I have done several things based on owners comfort! This goes from daily car rides, hikes, long walks. Playing in the backyard, you name it! Again, everything is based on the comfort level of the pet parent.
