Patient and compassionate dog lover
Pet care experience
*Flexible schedule *Experience with special needs, medicated, & elderly animals *Priority given for Lake City, U District, and Capitol Hill stays I've been a Rover sitter for about four years now, but have a lifetime experience with dogs! Growing up my family was never without two dogs in the house, providing me with ample experience training, walking, and caring for dogs. I work a flexible from-home schedule so my days are very free for whatever care your pet needs! As a dog sitter, I am dedicated to providing the care YOU know is best for your animal, because nobody knows your dog better than you. I will work to ensure an easy and stress-free experience for you and your pets. I am a responsible and patient individual who will do everything in my power to make sure your four-legged friends are well taken care of!

Thanks for arranging this. Mary
Rachel is always on time and cheerful. Lola likes her and is happy to go with her. I am pleased with her dog walking.
Rachel was so wonderful with the dogs while we were out of town. She was a great communicator and sent us daily photos. Our dogs got lots of love and attention while we were away. It was a comfort to know they had someone with them in the house while we were away. It is also good to know someone is caring for our house while we're gone. Rachel helped check the mail and brought in packages. We will definitely book with Rachel again the next time we have travel. Thanks!
Very conscientious dog and cat care, much appreciated

Information Rachel H. would like to know about your pet
I prefer to know the owner's preferences on everything. I can cater to what the dog needs in most areas, but just want to make sure I know those needs ahead of time. Here are questions I typically ask on meet and greets: -What is your dog’s typical routine for food, walks, and potty breaks, and how much flexibility do they have within it? -Where do you typically take your dog for walks? How responsive are they on the leash? How do they react to other dogs, humans, kids, and small animals? -Is there anywhere you like to take your dog to be off-leash (dog park, etc)? -Does your dog have any special needs, medications, food allergies, or anxieties? -What commands does your dog already know? Are there any commands you’d like me to work on with your dog?
A typical day
I enjoy taking dogs on walks through nature, especially if there are parks where a dog can run or play fetch. However, walking through neighborhoods is always a great option as well! I'm a big fan of cuddling and playing fetch with the four-legged friends so whether your dog is a lay-around-the-house kind or a run-around-all-day kind I'm happy to provide it all!
