Availability

I work a full-time hybrid position, so my schedule can be flexible at times with advanced scheduling. I am typically able to interact with your fur child as much as needed! We can go on a short walk or hang out at home before I go to work, during my lunch break, and after I am off! Weekends are usually wide open availability.

Information Rachel M. would like to know about your pet

I want to provide the best pet sitting and walking service to you and your pet. I would like to know the following information before starting services. We can also discuss during a meet and greet. - Any things to avoid in particular around your pet? (e. g. children, squirrels, cats, certain words/sounds)?! - What is the normal routine for your pet? (Let me know when feeding time is and if they are on a walking schedule, etc.) - How long can your pet normally be left alone or how long can you leave them alone for? (Please note, I only provide drop-in visits and do not stay over night). - Are there any house rules I should know about? (Locked building, turn off A/C or lights, etc.) - What kind of treats are okay for your pet? Are they allergic to any foods or anything else I should know about? - Does your pet take any medications and if so, please let me know dosage/time to give? Any health conditions I should be aware about? Anything else you may think would be helpful for me to know! Thank you for your consideration and I can’t wait to spend time your fur baby!

A typical day

I always engage with pets when providing services, whether that is talking to them for comfort (of course, telling them how good they are!), playing with their favorite toys with them, taking them for a structured or sniff walk(s), playing fetch, or taking them on car rides for fresh air and maybe a puppuccino at the local coffee shop! Let me know when your pet enjoys and I will make sure to do it with them! I’m here to take care of your pet and have fun with them too!

Pet care experience

I have been a pet owner for over 20 years and have taken care of a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, fish, and guinea pigs. I treat my own fur baby, Dexter, like my own child and I will do the same for yours! He’s my best friend, we do everything together & that’s exactly how I will treat your pup or kitty. I would love to take your fur baby on a nature hike, to the local coffee shop for a puppuccino, to a park to play fetch, or even just playing and lounging around the home. I am here to keep your pet safe and comfortable. Whatever works well and best for them.
