Lower East Side Pup Pied-a-terre

Pet care experience

I live with my boyfriend minutes away from the east river greenway and a short walk from several dog parks. Depending on the unique needs of your dog, daily long walks and dog park day trips can definitely be arranged. I grew up around large dogs, taken care of friends' dogs and have experience volunteering at animal shelters throughout the city; as such, I understand the varying needs of every unique pet, and will go above and beyond to make sure I accommodate those needs. My schedule is flexible and I'm able to give you frequent updates about our adventures. I'm able to host one to two dogs at a time, depending on the size of your dogs and what you're comfortable with. I miss having a dog of my own, my visits home to see my family's dog isn't enough and I would love to be your dogs next home away from home!

Our dog Roux had such a great time with Rachel. Roux sometimes gets uneasy around new people but it was a seamless introduction and Roux immediately opened up and felt completely comfortable. Rachel lives in a great neighborhood with plent

Rachel did an amazing job taking care of my pup!! She was extremely polite, professional and trustworthy. I am so grateful to have found such an awesome pet sitter!

Rachel loves animals more than anyone I have ever met and her enthusiasm for dogs is unparalleled. In the 15 years I have know her, I have never seen her be able to walk past a dog without making a remark of glee or, more likely, bending down to pet and play with them. She is a a responsible and trustworthy friend and I am confident she would make an excellent dog sitter.

Rachel and I have known each other for 14 years, and her love and compassion for dogs is unsurpassed. She is attentive, active, and acutely aware of the needs of others, especially when it comes to dogs of all ages and sizes. Rachel would be a loving and caring dog sitter for anyone who needed help caring for their fur baby - I highly recommend her!
