We both work from home, with one of us home full time and the other part time, so your pet is rarely alone and always has company. Walks, meals, playtime, and breaks fit easily into our daily routine, and we’re used to giving dogs plenty of attention and care throughout the day.

We provide a calm, stress-free, and relaxed environment where pets feel safe and at home. We follow their usual routines for meals, walks, playtime, and rest, and adapt as much as possible to each dog’s energy level and personality. Whether a pet needs active time outside or just quiet companionship, we keep things easy, consistent, and comfortable, with lots of attention and care throughout the day.

Information Rachel & Maxime K. would like to know about your pet
Our dog, Barcy, is a middle-aged rescue with a calm and introverted personality. She enjoys her independence and does best with dogs that can respect her space. Large or very high-energy dogs may sometimes make her feel stressed or cause her to bark. We always prioritize safe, positive interactions and will adapt activities and supervision accordingly to make sure everyone feels comfortable.
A typical day
We keep things fun but relaxed, based on each dog’s energy and comfort level. Activities can include walks at Onion Creek Dog Park, Zilker, nearby trails, and neighborhood walks, either on leash or off leash when appropriate and approved. At home and outside, we love playing fetch, doing light games like hide and seek, and using hidden treats to keep dogs mentally engaged.

Pet care experience
We bring a deep love for dogs backed by hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and needs. I’ve raised and cared for three dogs over the years: a loyal Basset Hound, an independent Chow Chow (both in Paris), and currently a spirited Basset-Poodle mix I rescued from Austin Pets Alive. We genuinely love taking care of dogs and treating them like they’re part of our family. As a couple without kids, we have the time, patience, and attention to fully focus on each dog’s needs. We understand that some breeds can be stubborn, that training takes patience, and that senior dogs often require extra care and gentler routines. We’re calm, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s personality. Whether that means long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply a steady and reassuring presence while you’re away, we make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and at home. 🐾

Always amazing service from Rachel and Max! So happy I found them on Rover!

Rachel and Max are consistent and extremely reliable. They are the best a pet parent can ask for! I’m so glad I found them on Rover! My dog was extremely well taken care of, exercised daily and I got photo and video updates everyday I was out of town. 10/10 recommend their services!
