Pet care experience

Friendly, experienced dog lover 🐾

Hi, I’m Rachel! My partner Ethan and I are dog lovers with experience caring for dogs of different ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities, from puppies to adults, and from low- to high-energy dogs. We would love to care for your dog while you’re away too. In addition to caring for my family's dog Scottie 🐾, Ethan and I have looked after friends' dogs for many years and have done professional dog sitting for dogs of varying breeds and ages in the last two years. We love taking dogs on long walks, stimulating their minds with time outdoors and practicing tricks, and getting to know each dogs’ individual personality. You can trust us to communicate often and clearly, send regular photos and updates, and tailor your dog's care to their needs and your instructions, so that you know they are in good hands while you are away. Fresh water will always be available, and we are experienced in following instructions regarding meals and dietary restrictions for your dog.

“Absolutely wonderful! Rachel & Partner took amazing care of Hugo. They were attentive, reliable, and sent frequent updates that made me feel at ease. I could tell Hugo was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”

We were really happy with Rachel and the way she looked after our Poppie. Thanks to Rachel and her partner, we could enjoy Christmas dinner without any concern for our pet's wellbeing. Rachel is an excellent sitter, responsive communicator, and lovely person. We will definitely book with her again.

Rachel was very flexible and communicative throughout the booking for Wilson. Kept me updated with pictures too! Wilson enjoyed his stay I’m sure!

Rachel (and Ethan) took such good care of Saffy for us! She settled quickly and Rachel kept us updated with photos and messages to let us know how she was getting on. Saffy enjoyed her stay and we wouldn’t hesitate to leave her with Rachel again.

Alaska and Luna had a wonderful time. I received loads of pictures of lush walks and happy pups. Rachel and Ethan were fantastic with clear, quick communication and relaxed flexibility. I highly recommend them.

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a lovely flat located just off Bedford's River Ouse and 15 minutes by foot from Bedford Railway Station. We have a clean, spacious indoor living area for dogs to play and rest, and we are located near plenty of outdoor space along the river for walks and time outside. Our flat is on the 1st floor (accessible by lift/stairs) - we have experience carrying dogs up the stairs if needed.

A typical day

We live in a peaceful area in Bedford just off River Ouse. We are big believers in letting dogs sniff the fresh air and explore their surroundings while keeping them safe. We'll also play games and have cuddles, and of course provide meals and treats (following your guidance) so your dog ends the day feeling happy and loved.
