Experienced, responsible dog lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Rachel and I am here to help your dog feel as comfortable and happy as possible! I am also certified in Dog & Cat First Aid through the American Red Cross. I know how hard it is to leave your pet. I am here as someone who has been pet- sitting for friends and neighbors since I was in elementary school and as someone who has worked with and trained dogs of all ages and sizes! Let me help you make your dog happy while you are busy!

Rachel took such good care of our mini golden-doodle while we were away. She followed the routine, gave her affection and sent us pics daily to show how our dog was doing while we were away. I highly recommend Rachel

Rachel is very patient with our shy dog and is great at letting our dog warm up to her. She is in great hands and follows our dog’s routine to make her feel at ease.

Rachel provided exceptional care for my dog Toto. Her clean home and fenced backyard ensured a safe environment. Toto instantly befriended Rachel's friendly dog Libby, making his stay enjoyable. Rachel kept me updated with photos, alleviating any concerns. When I picked Toto up, he was relaxed and happy, a testament to Rachel's excellent care. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone seeking a trustworthy and accommodating dog sitter

Rachel is one of the most responsible and hard- working people I know. She absolutely loves dogs and is dedicated to their care and well- being. Her natural means of working with animals of all kinds makes me feel comfortable having her care for my pets. She is very attentive and is careful with her pets and any others that are put in her care. I definitely recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

I live with my husband, Rob, and our friendly hound, Libby. Libby loves playing with other dogs and is very used to sharing her home. Our home has a fenced-in yard that dogs are given access to whenever they want. I adjust to your dog’s needs, whether that means crating them or snuggling them at night. When your pet is here, they are family. If I am in your home, I will treat it with respect. I want to make sure that you are happy and comfortable with me in your space.

Information Rachel M. would like to know about your pet

I do not accept any dogs that are not spayed or neutered. I apologize for any inconvenience! Please let me know of any food allergies or behavioral concerns ahead of time. For example, please let me know if your dog tends to “countersurf” or chew on things so that I know what to look out for. This is important in making sure your dog is healthy and happy.

A typical day

I want to make sure your dog has a great time while in my care. I am happy to take your dog for walks, play your dogs favorite games, and pay lots of attention to him or her! Just let me know what makes your pet happy and I will work on giving them a fun experience!
