Pet care experience

Your pup's home away from home!

Please note: I am not able to accept boarding requests for dogs bigger than 25lbs due to my building's restrictions. I've been around dogs my whole life and have been actively pet sitting for friends and family for over 10 years. I'm most comfortable with small and medium-sized breeds, but I genuinely love spending time with dogs of all kinds. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and administering medication (oral meds, eye drops, etc.), so I'm comfortable handling the needs that come with dogs at different life stages. I live in a condo with no other pets, which means your dog gets my undivided attention. I'm happy to rearrange my space to make sure they're comfortable and safe. Pets ARE family members. Whether it's sticking to your dog's routine, sending you photo updates, or just making sure they feel safe and loved, I take that responsibility seriously.

Rachel did a great job taking care of Bailey. She even gave him a bath just before the end of his stay. Would definitely rebook.

Rachel is a wonderful dogsitter and took amazing care of our fur baby. She was attentive to all of his needs and communicated with us regularly so we were always informed on how our baby was doing. After not eating much the first day, Rachel went the extra step and cooked plain chicken for him on the second day to ensure his belly was not empty. She gave our fur baby lots of love, attention and cuddles. We would not hesitate to leave our baby with Rachel in the future. Thank you Rachel!!!

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bella! From the moment I dropped her off, I knew she was in great hands. I received so many updates, photos, and messages throughout Bella’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Bella looked so happy, comfortable, and genuinely loved the entire time. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and responsive, and it was clear she treated Bella like one of her own. I truly appreciated the excellent communication and all the extra care she put into making sure Bella was happy. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet!

I cannot recommend Rachel enough. From our very first meet and greet, she was very kind, attentive and made our dog, Charlie, comfortable. She followed our routine perfectly and made sure that Charlie got all the cuddles he wanted. She sent daily updates which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Charlie was happy while he was in Rachel’s care. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future.

We are so grateful to Rachel looking after our sweet dog. She's conscientious, kind, considerate, curious, genuinely willing to learn, has a great work ethic and mostly so loving. She was able to follow our lead to our pups routine so she blended right into our fur family effortlessly. Dogs know good people. They love her ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

I don't have any pets. There are lots of great walking areas nearby, and I love getting outside, so your dog will get regular walks and fresh air. I'm happy to follow whatever routine works best for your dog, whether that means crate time, free roaming, or a mix of both. I'll always check with you first about what your dog is used to and what you're comfortable with.

A typical day

Your dog's day will look a lot like it does at home. I'll stick to whatever feeding schedule and routine you set. In between, we'll go for walks around the neighbourhood, have some playtime, and plenty of downtime for naps and cuddles. I like to send photo and video updates throughout the day so you're never wondering how things are going. If your dog has specific needs or preferences, just let me know and I'll work them into our day.

I'd love to know as much as possible before the first visit. Things like their feeding schedule, any medications, allergies, behavioural quirks, how they do with strangers, and what comforts them when they're anxious. The more I know, the easier I can make the transition for your dog. I'd also love to do a meet-and-greet beforehand so you and your dog can get comfortable with me before the actual stay.
