Pet care experience
I have had dobermans my whole life. I have been around dogs of all kind and I was a baby sitter. A lot of the families I sat for had dogs so I had to watch them as well. My dobermans had health issues in the past when I was little so I know how to administer meds. I had other animals such as guinea pigs and saltwater fish. I have always loved animals and as a little girl I wanted to work at the zoo.I have a cat and a dog of my own. My dog is currently not in my home, he is away with his grandparents!
Reviews
Rachel was awesome with a last minute boarding. She kept me updated was kind, helpful and very responsive. I knew that my pup was in safe understanding hands. Would definitely recommend her to others
Rachel was raised with dobermans since birth and has helped me care for them consistently. She is very comfortable with dogs and has a good understanding of their behaviors and how to promote or discourage certain behaviors with firm, consistent interactions and plenty of praise. Rachel was also a highly sought-after babysitter throughout high school based on her performance as a student worker in the school's, community, day-care center. I highly recommend her!

For drop-in, house sitting, and dog walking services, the more details you provide about your dog makes my visit goes smoother and your dog stay comfortable with a new person entering your home. I would like to know your dog’s favorite spots to visit on a walk, how they like to greeted when a new person enters their area, how is their behavior with strangers generally, and of course their favorite treats!
Information Rachel G. would like to know about your pet
I like to know how your dog’s temperament is around things we could encounter on a week like other dogs, small animals like squirrels and bunnies, kids, people, bikes, mailman, and strollers. I know dogs can be different around their owner and strangers, so how they generally behave is fine. How does your dog like to be greeted? Do they like to sniff the hand or do they like when you go straight in for a pet? Do you give toys or bones while you are gone during the day? Does your dog enjoy having the tv on while home alone?
A typical day
I love to take dogs for walks and socialize them with other dogs and people. I love giving dogs a positive walk experience and I would like to watch them in areas that they are used. If you live near a dog park, walking trail, or park I have no problem taking them on an adventure !
