Pet care experience

Loving and caring with all pets!

Hi there! Thank you for considering me to care for your beloved pet. I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, and reptiles for over twelve years now (time flies!). From Chihuahuas to Great Danes, I’m comfortable with any and all breeds. I have experience taking care of new born puppies, kittens, and reptiles such as snakes, geckos and bearded dragons. I have one sweet cat at my own home and a Great Dane I grew up with. I was in a veterinary program throughout high school and have training in pet CPR, nail clipping, and oral medication. I enjoy taking pets out to a neighborhood park, for a walk, or even a run! I am also comfortable taking on more than one pet at a time (I once dog boarded 8 puppies!). You can vacation with a peaceful mind knowing that your pet is in great hands and being treated as if you never left! I’m very easy to contact and love to send you updates and pictures of your pet(s) and I having a great time :)

I was nervous about trying this service. We have three Australian Shepherds. They are not exactly the easiest dogs to care for. Our dogs had been going to the same person for boarding for years until they retired. Rachel did a fantastic job caring for our pack! She took extra time to get to know them before we went out of town. She was reliable and sent updates regularly. Highly recommend Rachel! Hope we get to work with her again in the future!

Rachel did an extended drop in visit for us and everything went great. Rachel keeps us updated and has good communication before and after. We already booked her for another date.
