With a flexible work schedule and two teens who absolutely love animals, your pet will enjoy nearly constant attention and cuddles! I spend a lot of time outdoors when I'm not working, ensuring your pet gets plenty of walks and mental stimulation. Plus, if you'd like, I can even take them along on hikes for some extra adventure!

Information Rachel G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors to account for ahead of time. I prefer to look after fully potty-trained smaller breeds.

A typical day

A typical day includes multiple walks, time playing fetch, tug-of-war or practicing tricks, and ample cuddles. I've even met up with neighbor pups for puppy playdates at some owner's requests. Your pup is family when they stay with me!

Pets

I love your pet like family!

Pet care experience

I'm a mom to two young teens, two elderly kitties, and a bunch of plant babies! I had a pet dog throughout my twenties and started dog sitting to fill the space he left behind. Your pup will be treated like royalty - multiple walks throughout the day, cuddles from the whole family, and free range of the house and large covered patio. If you're an active family, rest assured that I'll maintain your pups regular schedule of walks, hikes, and other time outdoors!

Rachel was amazing and took such good care of our sweet dog. She sent regular updates and was very communicative. We loved using her. 10/10 will book again and highly recommend Rachel to anyone!

We are super happy to have found Rachel! She was communicative and warm and most importantly she and her family provided all the love and cuddles our little lap dog is so used to. We will be turning to her anytime we need to head out of town without our pup!
