Animals Are the Best

Pet care experience

I have personally taken care of guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, fish, and many dogs. My friends have trusted me to house sit for them multiple times so I am responsible and easily able to take care of multiple pets and the same time. One of my friends has had turtles, hedgehogs, and fish so I also have some aquatic experience as well.

As a person with two dogs, one loving people and other wanting absolutely nothing to do with them, I know how hard it is to find a good dog sitter. Rachel accepted the challenge, took time out of her day to meet with me and become familiar with not only the dogs, but with their unique needs as well. She made sure to ask questions and write down everything from where the leashes were, to what time and how much medication my elderly dog needed. On top of my two dogs, I left three fish, eight chickens, and well over twenty plants in her care for two weeks while I was halfway across the country and came back to all of them perfectly fine. Whenever I contacted her she was always quick to respond; then made sure to send funny pictures of the dogs playing in the snow or peacefully sleeping in a funny position. You could not ask for a better dog sitter.

Rachel is one of the most responsible people I know. She's been a family friend for 11 years and is always watching my pets when I'm away. I have dogs of all sizes and she handles them just fine. She makes sure every pet she cares for is well taken care of and happy. She's a people person and is sure to make her clients feel comfortable She is enthusiastic about her work and always has a smile on her face.

Safety, trust & environment

I am always making sure that my pets are not getting into anything that they are not getting into and I have built up my trust with them that they will all come when I call them, at least for the most part. At a client's house, I will keep track of the pets and make sure that they are being safe, have enough water, getting fed regularly, and let outside whenever they need to go out along with walks when it is nice out.

Information Rachel R. would like to know about your pet

I should know if they have any special needs or any dietary demands that are different than the average packaging says. I will also appreciate knowing if they are house trained or not and if they are good with other dogs.

A typical day

I will play fetch with them or tug of war with their toys. I like walking around my neighborhood and also Silver Springs so I will take them there in my car if they are good with walks.

I take care of my rabbit every day by giving him more food, water, and hay. I also let him out of his cage almost every day so he can get exercise and I can watch him the whole time. When I am with my dogs I take them on walks, feed them, give them water, and clean up after their messes.
