Pet care experience
Fun Walks & Loving Care
I’ve cared for pets my whole life and truly love working with animals. I’ve helped friends, neighbors, and family with everything from daily walks to feedings, baths, and playtime. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, puppies who need routine, and seniors who need a gentle pace. I’m patient, calm, and always make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your fur baby will be treated like family. With over 30 years of hands-on pet experience, I’m confident caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m attentive to instructions, comfortable giving oral meds, familiar with basic training reinforcement, and experienced with multi-pet households. I provide detailed updates, photos, and consistent communication so you always feel at ease. Safety, reliability, and genuine care are my priorities. I’m a mom of three and have several pets of my own, so I understand the importance of trust, safety, routine, and communication. I always show up on time, follow instructions exactly, and give your pet my full attention every visit.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow your instructions, keep a close eye on your pet’s behavior, and maintain a calm, gentle presence. I double-check doors, gates, and locks, and always make sure your pet is secure before leaving. I take safety very seriously. I follow feeding guidelines, medication instructions, walking routines, and any household rules you have. I’m experienced with leashes, harnesses, slow introductions, and handling pets with anxiety. I always confirm that your home is locked and your pet is safe before I go. I care for your pets with the same level of attention and love I give my own. I create a calm, comfortable environment and move at your pet’s pace—whether that means slow cuddles, playtime, or quiet companionship. I send updates and photos every visit so you always feel connected and reassured.
Ratings and reviews
Rachel is so great! She takes great care of my kitty cat and after only 2 visits he loves her.
Wonderful job, the kitties were so happy with their staycation with Rachel. Checked in every day and sent plenty of beautiful photos of them. Went above and beyond with their care while we were away. Would 100% recommend her & hire her again!
Rachel is a really conscious, tentative and really nice. She took great care of my dog and loved her like her own. I'm definitely hiring her again.
Rachel and Luna get along great...Rachel goes the extra and that makes her service amazing!!
Great meeting Rachel, she is very nice and Luna thoroughly enjoyed her walk. I've already booked my next walk.
Rachel was great as always

- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsRachel can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, allergies, medications, or behaviors I should be aware of so I can care for them properly. I’m comfortable with shy dogs, puppies who are still learning manners, and high-energy breeds that need extra stimulation. Including shy kitties, cats that need extra attention, or just the love and company they deserve! Let me know their feeding schedule, potty routine, crate preferences, and any commands or training cues you use so I can keep things consistent. I tailor activities and care based on your dog’s personality, energy level, and comfort.
