Availability

I work full time, but work from home on Monday and Friday, which makes my schedule flexible. I can care for dogs easily throughout the week. If any dogs are boarded with me in my home throughout the week, I have crates in my basement and baby gates for when needed. Any dogs boarded through the week would be home in my house up to 8 hours on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday when I am in the office, just for your reference.

Pets

Well versed in all things dogs!

Pet care experience

I love animals so much, especially dogs! I have grown up with multiple dogs in my family's household since I was born. In my house I currently have 2 dogs of my own, one Great Dane and one staffy mix. I have also volunteered for a rescue for 5 years being a foster dog mom, and helped 30 dogs during my time fostering. My Great Dane was my foster failure. I have cared for many types of dogs and understand many different temperaments. I feed them, walk them, play with them, wash them, brush them and give them tons of love! I do well with all sizes of dogs as I've grown up with many different breeds over my years and have fostered many different breeds. I live in Harrison West area near a park which is great for walking dogs, as well as my house has a fully fenced in back yard!

Rachel is the best. She treated Walter like he was hers. He was nervous at first but by the end he was acting like he lived there. She was very accommodating with his anxiety and we couldn't have asked for better. Definitely will be a repeat if she will have him again.
