Pet care experience

"I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and snuggle with their beloved pets. I have always owned pets in my family. Also, I have had the pleasure of taking care of neighbors and friends pets when they have gone out of town. I am gentle, calm, loving, affectionate and playful around animals. I find it very rewarding to have the pleasure of getting to know someone else's family members. My family background is solid, loving, and I have two wonderful parents. I have four pets of my own. I have two cats and a senior dog as well as a Golden Doodle who is 2 years old. If need be, I can share more character references. Thank you for your consideration. I do know how to administer medications and have trained three dogs.

Rachel did a wonderful job watching our two senior cats for several overnight stays; the cats warmed up to her more every day; took good care of our home/outdoor plants; received photos and a video, making me feel comfortable being on our trip. Very trustworthy!

Rachel did an amazing job with my pup daisy! She helped with training and provided insight on things I can do at home to help Daisy with her new home. Can’t recommend her enough!

Rachel took great care of my dog azalea for 3 nights. She sent pictures and updates to me during the my dogs stay. I would highly recommend her to others and will try to book with her again in the future.

Rachel was amazing! We were nervous because this was the first time we had had anyone watch Beau, but we quickly realized we had nothing to worry about. She even sent us a bunch of pictures of beau playing so we could see how he was doing. We will definitely be using her every time we need a rover sitter!

Information Rachel H. would like to know about your pet

I would love for you to share what your dogs temperament and personality is so that I am better to accommodate. Do they get sad when you leave them and not want to eat? Do your cats hide and is there a specific space they prefer to be so that I can find them to make sure that they are okay.

A typical day

if your fur baby is hyper and ready to break a sweat then I am the right person to take them out to some near by parks. we can play fetch with their favorite toys, swim in ponds and chase the squirrel friends. All while capturing the cutest photos of our adventures. I would even take them on hiking trails so that they can walk in a new environment other than the neighborhoods which are so often. If you haven an older dog or a pet who doesn't want to have as much exercise then we can make sure they relax and have a doggy spa caring day. If your fur baby is a kitty then I realize that they need the most attention from belly rubs, laser light toys, feathers and getting some cuddles on my lap.
