Dog Mom, Lover, & Shelter Volunteer

I grew up in a household of dogs and rescued my fur baby, Bear (pictured), 2 years ago. Bear is currently living with my parents while I am in school at Harvard and I miss him so much! I would love to care for your pup while you're traveling or just need a few days break :)

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My campus has a large grass area for play time and my building has a pet spa. I also frequent the local dog park for more social pups! Below it lists that I have a dog, but he is not presently in the apartment with me (should your dog prefer a single dog home).

Rachel was an excellent dog sitter! I love her enthusiasm for dogs, she really cares! She communicated timely and offered pics and updates while our dog was in her care. Our very energetic dog got plenty of exercise and plopped at home upon return. We will definitely rebook with Rachel if our timing works out again with hers. Thank you for loving our dog well, Rachel!

I could not recommend Rachel more! She is incredibly reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about all the pets that she looks after. I’ve always felt completely at ease knowing my dog is in such loving and caring hands.
