Pet care experience
I am an enthusiastic dog and cat lover, and have always had a pet in my life. I care for many dogs (and cats!) and love to play and snuggle. I am happy to spoil your pet with the many treats that they deserve, but I can also help your pet follow strict diets and provide medicinal care. I am very experienced in dealing with runners, escape artists, and coach potatoes. Many dogs agree that I give the best and most loving ear rubs and belly scratches. I honestly have not met a dog I didn't get along with, and love making new furry friends! I am available when I am not in class and am willing to walk in sun and snow, and even if its raining cats and dogs!
Reviews
Rachel was so great with our pets and super communicative while we were away. Wonderful pet sitter!
Rachel did a terrific job taking care of our two dogs, and kept us well informed with daily pictures and updates. The pups and our house were in great shape when we returned from our trip!
Rachel was excellent in all respects. Well spoken, very organized, and took amazing care of our house, 2 dogs, and bearded dragon lizard while we were away for a week vacation. It was a lot to ask but she nailed it. Thank you Rachel!
Rachel is in absolute delight! We trusted her so much that we re-booked her during our original booking! She is amazing with our English bulldog puppy. She leaves detailed report cards and pictures and is incredibly timely. Highly recommend Rachel!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I believe that pets are family and I will always treat them with the same attention to detail, care and patience that you give them. I do my very best to become a friend to your pet and give them all the time they need to warm up to me.
Information Rachel J. would like to know about your pet
Would like to know about temperament of your pet around new faces. I prefer small/middle sized dogs, I myself am not very large and can be overpowered by large excited dogs.
A typical day
Will go on walks in the neighborhood, local parks, and explore the great unknown of the backyard! Will also make sure that the water bowl is always full and treats will be readily provided. Walks will be as sniffy as your dog needs, for extra mental stimulation! Snuggles are, of course, mandatory!

Availability
I am a full-time student at George Mason University and love taking breaks for walks with a pup! I have a flexible daily schedule and will do my best to accommodate. I am in class on Monday and Wednesday between 9am and 4:30pm. Please note that on these days I am unable to provide constant care unless a specific plan is worked out between us. I do my best to provide care but please keep my school schedule in mind!
