Reliable dog and outdoor lover
Pet care experience
I am a biology PhD student at ISU who loves to fill my extra time with dogs. I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember. My husband and I have three dogs of our own, and believe there's no such thing as too many dogs. I would love to spoil your dog(s) with a stay at our home, a drop in visit at your home, or by taking them on a walk! I love dogs of all breeds and sizes and our three dogs love having friends to play with. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. I also enjoy walks and bring my dogs on a walk around our small town, or on the bike trail nearby every day. I would love to include your dog(s) in our daily routine and treat them as one of my own!
Reviews
Rachel (and Tim) are awesome pet sitters!! Wade is always well taken care of - goes on walks and lots of snuggle time with them and their fur babies too!! Would (and have) recommend them to anyone!! 🥰🥰
Rachel was absolutely awesome with Wade! He was well taken care of and spoiled to the hilt! I got pictures every day and an update of his day. We will FOR SURE be booking with Rachel again!!
I am so thankful for Rachel! She gave us regular updates and photos. She also learned our dog’s personality’s quickly to make them feel right at home. We’ve already booked her for our next trip!
Rachel was absolutely the best!!! I got several pics each day and updates on what Wade was up to morning and night. A friend I was with was jealous of all the info. She had only gotten 1 picture of her 2 yr old son who was with his Grandma and I had over 20 pics and 2 updates/day in the first 2 days of our trip. DEFINITELY booking with Rachel again!!

I have three dogs who LOVE having friends to play with. In my house, my dogs are allowed on all furniture and are left to roam free (not-crated) when I'm not home. If your personal rules with your dog differ from this, please let me know I will be happy to follow whatever rules you have in place for your dog. I even have a large crate available if your dog needs to be crated and you don't want to haul your own crate around.

Information Rachel M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know how they are around other dogs, their temperament, feeding schedule, how much exercise they require, favorite toys, and regular home routine and rules.
A typical day
I can provide leashed walks, unleashed walks in the woods, trips to the dog park, swimming, and anything else your dog(s) may enjoy! I will also provide unlimited love and belly rubs. I will send you picture and video updates throughout the entire stay!

Availability
I'm typically on campus from 9-5 every weekday; because of that weekend boardings are best if you would like someone to be home with your dog during the day. However, I usually wake up early to let my dogs run around the fenced yard, or bring them for a walk, before I leave in the morning, and I do the same once I return home for the evening.
