I love all pets like they're my own

Pet care experience

I grew up riding horses and working on horse farms from the age of 6, so I have experience taking care of many different types of animals! In my life I have had cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, a mouse, and a horse. I always get excited to meet new animals, they are all so special in their own unique ways, so I love lagging their personalities. I also have experience fostering cats and dogs as well. I have experience raising/training puppies and kittens, so your wee babes are safe with me!

Rachel was great with my one year old kitten, and she is very experienced with cats and dogs. She introduced my kitten to his first dog while sitting and it was a successful experience for my Milo. Rachel was persistent sending pictures everyday I was away and communicated each day as well. I was pleased with my Milo's care. Teresa

Rachel has taken care of my cat on two occasions. She always sends me a lot of pics and notes about how he is doing. She spends time playing with him. He seems well cared for when I return. I would recommend her without reservation.

It was my first time leaving my puppy and Rachal made me feel so comfortable with the pictures and updates. I will definitely use her again

Safety, trust & environment

I have a good sized fenced in backyard for your pup to run around in! My 11 year old dachshund mix loves having other dogs to play with and show around. He even loves big dogs and is convinced he's much bigger than he is, as he grew up around bigger dogs. I also have 3 cats who like to pretend they run the house. I have no problem crating your pup if you would like, and have a couple spare rooms with space for a crate so they can have their own space to decompress away from my animals.

Information Rachel P. would like to know about your pet

If you would like to book house sitting services, please know that my super mellow dog, Marlow, would be joining me. He gets along with every dog he meets and has plenty of experience with cats, as I have three myself. This makes it easier for me to spend more time at your house, and more time with your babies.

A typical day

I take the pups out for a walk at least once a day, more so if the weather is nice. I have lots of toys for them to play with, and Marlow doesn't mind sharing. If I am boarding your pup, it makes things much easier if they like cats or are apathetic towards them. I have 3 cats, so they may make an appearance.
