Work at home Dog Lover

I grew up with a Husky/Lab mix named Sparky. Yes I named him Sparky but in my defense I was 10. Though he was one of the most insane (in a good way) dogs I ever met, as a little kid I still managed to walk and care for him even when he was was behaving unruly. To pay the bills, I went on to be a pet sitter throughout college sitting for everything from Bichon Frises to German Shepherds. No poop is too big is for me to pick up! I work from home so I'll be around all day so your pet will always have company. I'll also take your pet for long walks on the beach. OK kidding about the beach part. But they will go on walks. Please note: I have a full-time job at home so I mainly pet sit for the company. If your dog has special issues such as anxiety, indoor peeing, or not eating I am not the right sitter. I only have one dog at a time, your pooch will get my full attention! Perfect for dogs who don’t get along with other pets or children or owners who prefer one on one attention for their pets. I like to meet and greets prior to make sure it's a fit.

Rachel is fantastic! We have used her service twice now for extended overnight stays and will continue to use her on a regular basis. Our Lily seems almost happier to arrive at Rachel's house than she does when we return to pick her up from being away! Needless to say, this warms our hearts. There is no greater comfort than knowing when we have to be apart from our pets that they are in good, caring hands. We highly recommend Rachel.

Rachel was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sent multiple pictures of my dog during the trip. My dog seemed very happy and relaxed when I returned to pick him up.
