Fun & Experienced Dog Sitter!

Pet care experience

I love dogs and my friends always rely on me to take care of their pets while they’re out, whether it be for an evening or a few days. I have a dog and cat of my own, both who are friendly and get along well with other animals. If your dog does not get along well with cats, I have a separate room for her.

Barkley had a great time with Rachel. She sent a lot of updates/pictures and was very easy with drop off and pickup. She’s really invested in making sure your dog is cared for during their visit. I would highly recommend Rachel and will be using her services again in the future. Thanks Rachel!

Rachel took care of our fur baby Latte for 4 days. Rachel gave Latte her prescription drugs promptly and Latte was able to come back home healthy!?? Rachel’s puppy is also very friendly and got along with Latte! We are very thankful to Rachel and hope that one day she can babysit Latte again❤️

She is the biggest dog lover I’ve ever come across! She’ll treat your dog like it’s her own and give them all the attention you won’t. I trust her and admire her willingness to help other animals. She’s great!

Rachel is one of my really good friends, she also lives in my neighborhood which means that I’m so fortunate to have a sitter for my dog! She helps me out with my dog on a daily basis and I 100% trust her to continue doing so! My dog has a very sensitive stomach, meaning that anything and everything upsets her stomach. Rachel always makes sure that her house is cleared from any left over food that may have been left behind from her dog before she brings my dog over for a play date while I’m at work! Rachel always sends pictures and videos to me while she has my dog over! I never even asked her to, but the simple act of kindness puts a smile on my face while I’m away from my fur pup! I don’t trust just anyone with my dog, especially since she does have such a sensitive stomach, but I highly recommend Rachel for Rover!! Just know you fur baby will be in such good hands with Rachel!

I live in an apartment, it is pretty spacious for dogs to run around in. I have baby gates in case the dogs need to be separated from my cat. There is also a dog park in the neighborhood that I take my own dog to (I will only take yours with consent of course!).

A typical day

Lucky for me, my building has a dog park! I can take your dog to this park multiple times throughout the day to make sure they are getting exercise and fresh air. If your dog is high-energy and friendly with other dogs, I can even set up play dates with my neighbors. Let me know if your dog is allowed pup cups because there’s also a Starbucks right below my building! :)

I work from home 90% of the week, so pet care is very easy for me. I take my own dog on multiple walks throughout the day. She is very well taken care of.
