Girl with a passion for all animals

Pet care experience

I've grown up caring for animals at my aunts farm, and continued with my own animals. I've completed an internship at a veterinary hospital for a year, shadowing a veterinarian. I then went on to work as a kennel assistant over the summer at a separate veterinary hospital until I moved here to Richmond, which I then began working kennel at Cary St Veterinary Hospital. I'm majoring in Biology with a concentration in Pre-veterinary medicine. I have handled many different types of animals medications and specific needs that their owner had requested. I am used to many different types of dogs and demeanors, I have handled frightened and even vicious dogs in the past. I am available for all services, and can do some grooming at my residence if you are doing day care or boarding.

I cannot say enough nice things about Rachel. My pup is always excited to go see her and she comes back tired. Also, Rachel has been so accommodating with my crazy work schedule. So lucky to have found her.

Our pups had a great time with Rachel and her Daisy. I even think our puppy is closer to being completely housebroken thanks to Rachel’s care! She was very easy to work with as far as our travel schedule. We will definitely use her again!

Information Rachel R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about certain behaviors, especially potentially violent ones. I know some dogs have certain things that set them off, so addition details about any such behavior would be appreciated. I am very good with shy/ nervous dogs, but just let me know. I love all dogs equally but have a deep love for big dogs!

A typical day

We will walk around the neighborhood around the house. Play many sorts of games, and even training if the owner is okay with that! I'm attempting to improve my dog training.
