Dog Walking • ago. 31, 2019

Rachael was on time, pleasant and was immediately attentive to my puppy. She took her for a walk and I felt good knowing my pup was in good hands!

House Sitting • ene. 21, 2016

Rachel is wonderful! She was professional and prompt in her response and she saved us when another sitter cancelled last minute. She even came to meet our pups on the same day we contacted her. My female pup warmed to her immediately even though she's often wary of new people. While we were away, we received daily updates and pictures and it was so reassuring to know they were are home and getting lots of cuddles and exercise. Mali and Beto were so calm when we got home- I don't think they minded at all that we were gone! (A very different experience from picking them up from the kennel after a week.) We will definitely be reaching out to Rachel next time we leave town!
