Doggie Paradise! 75 acres of fun
Pet care experience
We live on a farm with miles of hiking trails, a large pond, and a big deck to watch the world go by. We can run, swim, play, or just be lazy. The yard is not fenced but we can go for lots of leashed walks in the woods or around the pond. I work from home and am available 24/7. I’ve had dogs my whole life and am experienced training herding dogs, understand dog behavior, and love all dogs like they’re my own. They’re welcome on the furniture : ) Come be a part of our pack
Reviews
Rachel and her partner were a complete dream. She treated my boy like he was her own.
Rachel was absolutely fabulous - my dog loved her and her pup right from the start. She was flexible about pick up and drop off times, and she sent me great pic and video updates while I was away. I know my dog had a great time with her - he had so much fun, he fell asleep in the car on the way home! I love a sitter who can wear my high-action pup out!
To say Rachel was amazing would be an understatement. She is educated, capable, passionate, and so incredibly caring. Not only did I not feel bad/worry about leaving my pup with her over the holidays, I actually felt good about it! Her pooch, Isis, is an absolute sweetheart and my dog got some much-appreciated socialization during her stay. Rachel took her out to the dog park or to the levee every single day, and kept in excellent contact through multi-day texts, pictures, and videos. She is an absolute gem. I will never use anyone else.
There are dog people and then there are other people. Rachel is a dog person. Her affinity for our canine friends is a part of who she is, and dogs respond to her. They know she has their back. You couldn't ask for a better person to give your pal a great afternoon or weekend. There will be walkies, there will be treats and there will be lots of play. If I were a dog, I would tell you the solution is simple: If you're going to leave me, please let me go to Rachel's house to play.
