Small pup 🐈 lover ready to help!

Pet care experience

I believe pets are our therapeutic companions and deserve the love we give to one another. I specialize in watching small pups (under 25 pounds). It's important your pup gets along with cats since I have one in my home. He's 5, a sweetie, and generally just lets dogs around him do their thing. I don't watch dogs under 2 years old or dogs that have special needs right now. Some facts: - I have had a special needs pup so I am experienced in being extra patient and mindful of each individual’s needs - I walk everywhere and love being outdoors so expect your pup to be sleepy!

Rachel took excellent care of Addie, my schnauzer-poodle, over the long weekend! She is a calming presence and my dog was in great hands. Clear communications, she sent pictures during the stay, and asked questions in advance to better understand my dogs needs. Addie is a little anxious and when I picked her up at the end of the weekend, I could tell she wasn’t stressed at all. Highly recommend Rachel and would be glad to have her watch Addie again in the future.

Rachel was an excellent sitter for my cats, and my mind was completely at ease while I traveled. She is friendly and easy to communicate with. She provided daily updates and photos. And she had no problem managing different foods and medicines for each cat. Highly recommend!

Rachel was very responsive leading up to and throughout the booking. She was concerned about the dogs' well being while I was away and reported my dogs' behaviours that she thought might have been out of the ordinary. Would definitely book with Rachel again

I live in an apartment building that requires fob access so your pet will be safe with me and unable to get outside unless I'm taking them out on a leash. I also have a sweet cat that loves other animals that will keep your pet company.
