Walks,dogs,&summer- nothing better!
Pet care experience
My pet watching career started at 9yo with the founding of "Rachel & Kristen's Petsitting Business" --our pet care skills were better than our marketing skills-- and hasn't ended since. From great danes to labs to pugs I've watched many, and love all breeds! I've worked with the AMVET program and their trainers as well as fostered cats through the MetroWest Humane Society. I really enjoy being around animals.
Reviews
My two dogs absolutely love Rachel— I can’t recommend her enough! Very attentive to their needs and you can truly tell that she has a passion for animals.
Rachel was an amazing sitter for our large, clingy Staffie on the evening of our son’s wedding. She made us feel so at ease and kept us updated with texts and cute pictures of their fun night together. Rachel is attentive, patient, and a wonderful caretaker. We highly recommend her!
Rachel and I are sisters and she has always loved pets growing up! We only had cats, so Rachel started to take care of the dogs around the neighborhood and still helps out when she is home. She is a thoughtful and responsible person who will do her best to make your dog happy!
Rachel has been a friend of over 4 years. We met in college and has always been there whenever you needed her. I recently went on a 6 day long vacation after a year of not going on a vacation from work. I am also a new dad to my little Stitch. I couldn’t bring him with me and had to figure something out. I wanted someone I knew would have fun with him, be there and someone I knew I could count on. The first person I thought of was Rachel. She has always had the best interest of Stitch forward since I got him at 8 weeks. I knew that he would be well taken care of and given a good amount of attention. Since being on vacation Rachel has given me daily updates, sent me videos and photos everyday and has been great at following his routines and his needs. He has gotten a lot of exercise and social interaction and Stitch has been living his best life even though I am not around! There is no doubt in my mind that if you leave your fur baby with Rachel, no matter the needs or routines, she will do right by you and your baby! I have never been so blessed and felt more at ease!

Safety, trust & environment
I have lots of experience with pets, but know every animal has their own needs. My care is based on the instructions you give me, my questions, and your pet! Questions I ask are... Do they prefer long walks or dog parks? What's their regular bowl schedule?Any spots they don't like to be touched? And finally, I know animals are smart and will communicate, so I'm always looking to read behavior.
Information Rachel P. would like to know about your pet
We can do walks on the Charles, head to dog parks, play in the sprinklers, get pup cups, or whatever special activities your pet likes!
