Home full time with a fenced yard!

Pet care experience

I have experience with both overnight and daytime dog and cat care! Our home has a large fenced in backyard with lots of room for playing and running, as well as plenty of indoor room for relaxing in a safe environment! I stay home full time so you will not need to worry about how much care they will receive because as long as your dogs are in my home I will be available for their needs. A daily dog routine in our house includes early morning potty breaks (~6am) with lots of playtime throughout the day inside and out, followed by one last run outside before coming inside for the night (~10pm). I have experience administering routine medications to dogs during their stay and I will be more than happy to give your pups a bath before heading home if they get dirty playing!

After meeting Rachael and her family we knew right away that Tag would be well cared for here. She has a beautiful home with a large fenced back yard and two friendly dogs of her own. Rachael is clearly knowledgeable about dogs and understands their needs. Tag was very happy staying with Rachael and had a good time with her family and pets. We look forward to booking Tag with Rachel again and are glad to have found a family that we are confident leaving him with.

Rachel was super easy to communicate with and did a meet and greet beforehand to make sure my dog was a good fit. She made my dog feel right at home and like one of their pack and sent photos throughout his boarding too! Rachel kept me up to date on daily activities and how my dog was doing the whole time which was greatly appreciated. I will 100% be bringing my dog back for my next vacation!!

Rachel was amazing with my dog all weekend and gave me regular updates. She treated my dog like her own and followed all care instructions exactly. I would highly recommend her for all you pet care needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very large fenced-in backyard (privacy fence, 6 ft high) & two dogs to keep your pups busy & happy during their stay with me! We monitor the dogs during their time outside, so there is absolutely no need to worry about them escaping or getting into trouble. I feed all of the dogs separately to avoid any food issues come dinner time, & I have lots of experience administering oral medication should your pup have any special needs.

Information Rachel L. would like to know about your pet

I would just prefer to know if your dog is potty-trained and/or crate trained, as well as friendly towards children/dogs! I have experience watching dogs who are not potty-trained, but it is always appreciated to let me know ahead of time so that I don't walk into a surprise on our floor!

A typical day

During your pup's stay with me, I will treat them like one of my own - with lots of playtime, potty breaks, quiet rest, & my full attention. We have lots of extra dog toys to play fetch with & plenty of space on our dog beds for your fur baby! If you would like them to go on a walk around our neighborhood, I would love to take them twice a day!

I am currently a stay-at-home mother full time, so this means I will be home with your pets at all times! My day starts around 6 a.m., so one of the first things I can do is let your pups outside for fresh air to start their day. I think it's very important to give dogs as much attention as possible & make them feel loved, which will be my priority during their entire stay!
