Safety, trust & environment

If your pup needs somewhere to run, jump, and play for a day I do have a fully fenced in backyard and a poodle that loves to make new friends! If I’m at your home, I care for every animal like they are my own, and treat your house with care and respect.

Information Rachel H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your furry friend has any special needs, like medications, special foods, etc. Also knowing their day to day schedule is extremely helpful, I like to keep to their routine as much as possible :)

A typical day

I love going on walks, playing fetch with dogs, and indoor playtime in general. I’m also a big fan of cuddling with any pet that wants to :)

Pet care experience

As a pet owner I have raised cats, raised and trained my own puppy, and even owned a bearded dragon. As a pet sitter I have cared for both dogs and cats with behavioral and medical issues. I love them all, and enjoy working with families to make sure every pet gets the love, care, and attention they need while their people are away.

Rachel is the one we call on to take care of our old dogs. She is very patient and understanding and willing to go the extra mile for our dog with mobility issues. We already have her booked for trips later this year!

10/10 would recommend! Rachel did amazing with our two dogs this week. From the initial meeting until we walked back in the door from vacation, I felt at ease and confident that my pups were in the best hands. We got check-ins and photos every day and even our anxious little crusty white dog made strides to becoming more confident with Rachel’s patient and gentle presence. This is our first time hiring a pet sitter and Rachel will 100% be our go to from here on out. It was such a weight lifted off our shoulders to know they were being loved on and very well taken care of so we could truly relax and enjoy our time away.
