Pet care experience

Caring for your fur babe with love!

I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Every summer, I volunteer and foster with Young Williams Animal Shelter, where I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all personalities, from shy rescues to high energy pups. That experience taught me how to read animal behavior, build trust, and make every pet feel safe and loved. At home, I have two sweet Goldendoodles and a calm cat who are all well-socialized and gentle with new friends. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel right at home. ❤️🐾

Rachel was the best while I away for almost over a week! She was so accommodating and communicative about Willow's stay and was even willing to go the extra mile for her care and well being. Highly recommend!

Rachel is AWESOME! We’ve used her twice now and our dog got excited when we pulled up to her house this 2nd time! Tail was wagging and doggy couldn’t wait to get out of the car and run to her. That’s as close to a DOG’s review as you can get. She communicates well, is professional and sends photos and videos during the boarding to put our minds at ease. You can’t ask for more.

Schedule

I’m a dental student with a flexible schedule, so I’m home a good portion of the day. I usually have morning classes and optional labs in the afternoon, so I often come home around lunchtime to walk and play with my pups. On weekends, I’m completely free and love spending the whole day with them - going on walks, playing outside, or just relaxing together. I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, and love throughout the day. 🐾💛

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. At home, I keep things calm, clean, and pet-friendly, no hazards or tight spaces. My two Goldendoodles and cat are gentle and friendly, but if your pup prefers space, I have a separate cozy area where they can rest or adjust at their own pace. I always follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or medication. I send lots of photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and safe. Your pets will always be loved, safe, and cared for like family. ❤️🐾

Pets

A typical day

A typical day starts with some outside time in the fenced yard - perfect for stretching legs, sniffing around, and getting fresh air. Throughout the day, we’ll have plenty of playtime, cuddles, and potty breaks. I like to keep things calm and happy, whether that’s tossing a toy, giving belly rubs, or letting them nap near me while I study. In the afternoons or evenings, we’ll spend more time outside to burn off energy or enjoy the sunshine. On weekends, I’m home all day, so we’ll have extra time for attention, enrichment, and fun. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home.

love getting to know each pet’s personality and routine so I can make them feel completely at home. Let me know if your pup has any special needs, food preferences, medications, or like being shy with new dogs, getting excited on walks, or preferring quiet cuddle time. It’s also super helpful to know their favorite treats, toys, and what their normal day looks like. The more I know, the easier it is to keep them happy, comfy, and cared for just like they are with you!
