Pet care experience

I'd love to care for your pup!

I have had dogs my whole life, have helped train family pets, and am certified as a Comfort Dog handler. I have watched dogs from the wee size of a Chihuahua to big fluffy Newfoundlands. I love using patience and kindness to ensure your pups safety and well-being. I agrew up with the high energy of Border Collies, both young and older. I have dogsat at someone's house up to 5 dogs at a time, with varying food needs and medications. I try my best to be flexible and up for anything you need to ensure your furry friend is taken care of the same way I would care for my own. From walks, to watching them in my home, I am here to help you remain confident in your dog's care. For boarding, I do have two dogs that live in residence and would be available for a meet and greet prior to booking.

Rachel did an amazing job watching our dog! She was very communicative and sent daily videos/pictures of our dog while we were away! She was very accommodating and even dropped our dog off at our house before we got home! i will definitely book again!

Thank you so much for your time and patience with Dottie while we were out of town! Our minds were at ease knowing she was in such great care throughout her entire stay with you. We truly appreciated the attention and care you gave her, and it was wonderful knowing she was comfortable and well cared for while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Rachel watch Dottie again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pup. Thank you again, Rachel!

Rachel was communicative, asked great questions prepping for Luna’s stay, and helped make our anxious dog feel safe. Would definitely recommend. Based on updates, Luna adjusted to her home and her babies quicker than others she has stayed with. A peaceful environment with chill cohabitants. Grateful for her patient approach to her needs.

My baby came home very happy and with a little extra pep in her step that she usually lacks due to her age.

Schedule

I work a hybrid schedule, so some days I am fully working from home and other days I am in the office and usually pop home in the early afternoon to let my dogs out and finish the day working from home. Dogs get fed before I start work and dinner when I finish. If I work from home I usually take a break outside at some point to play with the pups and after work we can do walks or dog park or hanging out in the yard.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two other pups in the home who are relatively chill. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and get lots of snuggles. My own dogs are crate-trained but rarely use them. They are often left on the living room couch when I leave, with a baby gate keeping them in. Can use crates if needed, I own a size small and a size large. My dogs are 25 and 12 pounds. The smaller of the two is a rescue and is extremely chill and friendly to all other dogs. The bigger dog can be sensitive with other dogs sniffing his butt but the most he does is bark at them to move away. He usually minds his own space and doesn't play with other dogs much but also doesn't bother them.
