Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in my client's home given that they provide clear instructions for how they want me to care for their pet and they make me aware of the supplies and resources their pet requires. If I am to do an in home appointment, I require a phone call and one in person meeting to get to know you and your pet.

Information Rachel H. would like to know about your pet

I have never taken care of special needs pets, however, I am more than willing to learn about their needs and provide the proper care they need at your discretion. Additionally I would like to learn how your pet is socially in order to ensure trust and safety.

A typical day

I love to stimulate pets mentally and physically by providing them their daily exercise as well as taking them for car rides and going to the park. Additionally, I provide mental stimulation by trying to teach pets new tricks and playing with them using toys that require them to engage in problem solving such as finding a treat or trying to hunt their favourite toy.

Experienced Pet Owner

Pet care experience

I've taken care of pets ever since I can remember, all the way from dogs to lizards. I have always been passionate about pet care since I was a little girl because I believe animals are the most misunderstood gift that humans have been given. I understand that all animals require that we pay attention to their specific means of communication and needs. I am knowledgeable in gaining the trust of pets, advanced in hygiene maintenance, capable of medicinal administration, proficient in providing pets exercise and abiding by and understanding diet restrictions.

Rachel is the best. She was so great with my dogs. She is excellent at communication and really took care of my dogs while she was here. She helped me out of a tough situation when I had to extend my stay out of town. Austin and bunny were in great hands and can't wait to hang out with her again!

Rachel was a big help and very patient with small changes I made. This was our first time having a dog sitter and I was really nervous, as well as dealing with other things on top of that. We’d be happy to have her watch our girl again.

Rachel did a great job walking my shy/anxious dog and making sure she had a positive experience. She is attentive, reliable and communicates well.
