Dog Lover Working from Home

Pet care experience

**PLEASE READ** I’ve been a dog owner my whole life, and recently had to say goodbye to my beloved dog, Maya. Pet sitting while I work from home is a great way for me to still give all the love I have in my heart to another dog without adopting a new pet yet. I have been the lucky mom of a Shih Tzu, two Pitbulls, and an American Eskimo previously. **I currently do not have any pets and I work from home as a writer, so your pet will be the center of my attention. I currently only accept one client at a time** Your dog will get 1:1 attention and will not be left alone while in my care. They can hang with me while I work from home and we can take a stroll down Main Street on my lunch break. There is also a park across the street we can go to for short potty breaks. When the weather is nice and with your permission, I would love to take your dog for a leashed nature hike with me to get some energy out. For older dogs who prefer cozy days people-watching by the window, I have a fluffy velvet dog bed just for you :). I can care for pets large and small and young or old. If there are medications your pet needs, please give me detailed instructions. I prefer to do a meet and greet before our first session to make sure I am a good fit for your loved one, and that session is free of charge and can be done in person or virtually.

Rachel has been walking/watching our anxious bundle of furry energy for a few years now. Rachel is very caring and has a calm demeanor. She gives our pup great belly rubs and takes him on long hikes. She even taught him a few tricks! I highly recommend Rachel!

Rachel is a dear friend of mine and I know her as a patient and kind animal lover. My dog Teddy comes to many of our gatherings and outdoor activities and Rachel is more than happy to spend time with him (and he is always thrilled to see her!). Rachel’s patient, friendly and responsible attitude makes her for for this role.

Rachel is a person I consider a close friend and someone I can rely on. She is a loving and caring person and a responsible pet owner. She spends a lot of time with her dog, bringing her on hikes and to the beach and providing a happy home full of love and attention. You can tell Maya is a lovable, sweet and happy dog that is well loved and cared for by Rachel.

Rachel really loves dogs and is a very reliable dog walker! I work long hours and have to leave my pup at home, so it’s been great having Rachel come by to make sure he relieves himself and gets the attention he needs during the day until I can het home.

Information Rachel P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog as any special needs I should be aware of. I’d also like to know their demeanor and if they generally get along with other animals, so I know how to handle possible interactions while we are out on walks.

A typical day

Your dog will get lots of exercise in whichever form is their favorite! I’m happy to walk to a local park if there’s one close by, or help them get some energy out with a game of fetch or tug of war.
