Hi! My name is Rachel, I am 28 years old and I am a MASSIVE animal lover (especially dogs!) I have grown up around dogs and other animals my whole life and I now have 2 little fur babies of my own! I grew up with 2 cocker spaniels and since moving out of my family home I now have 2 wire haired dachshunds, Roger & Betsy. Both of my dogs are extremely loving, playful and cheeky! They love to play with each other and other dogs. Roger is 2 years old and Betsy is 4 months so we are still going through the puppy training stage. Both of my dogs came to live with me from 8 weeks old and so I have plenty of experience with puppies and puppy training. Despite not living close to them anymore, I still regularly look after my family dogs when my parents are on holiday. Both of them are now elderly and have had their fair share of health problems over the years, this has given me experience of looking after older dogs and administering oral medication. Over the past few years I have looked after dogs of all different sizes and ages for family and friends and I have now decided to use my time wisely and do what I love – being around and caring for dogs! As I already have dogs, my house is full of toys and the cupboards are always full of a variety of dog treats which Roger & Betsy are happy to share. I live within close proximity to lots of walking routes, parks and fields so your pup will never be bored as we have lots of different walking options. I have my own car and as long as you are happy, I am happy to travel with the dogs in my car to visit other walking routes. Please note I do not have a cage in my car but I do have dog seatbelts. I walk my own dogs at least once a day, I am able to walk the dogs at the same time so they can have a good play together, or if you would prefer I can take your dog for a 1-1 walk with myself, just let me know what you would prefer. I encourage Meet & Greet’s beforehand as I want you and your pet to feel comfortable with me and this gives us an opportunity to ask and answer any questions. I also welcome you to view my house and dogs if this would make you more comfortable. Your dog’s welfare is my number one priority and I want all parties involved to feel as safe and comfortable as possible so if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
