I GIVE THE BEST BELLY RUBS

Pet care experience

I have experience with caring for dogs that have medical issues like severe allergies and infections, joint pain, eye ulcers, and digestion issues. I've had experience with dogs in heat amd with dogs that have just has surgery. I also have experience with caring for dogs with behavioral issues. I have flexible availability and I can definitely work around most schedules. I am excellent at giving baths to the most squirmy of dogs. My secret is using peanut butter to distract the dog. This treat incentive makes bath time more enjoyable for everyone. I'm also skilled at cutting nails and training long nails to grow back shorter. I also love teaching dogs tricks and I wouldn't mind trying to teach your fur baby some! Belly Rubs are my speciality, but I've also been learning how to massage pups too.

Rachel was great with our boys and left the house very clean. We would defiantly recommend having her pet sit.

Rachel was great with our old girls. They aren't great with strangers, but she put them at ease fairly quickly. Rachel sent lots of updates & the pups were happy & healthy when we returned. She also took the time to go to the Post Office for me & send my passport for an unexpected side trip! Highly recommend!

Rachel has house/pet sat for me a few times. This last time was a disaster. I should have known it wasn't going to be good when she came to get the key and told me that she was going to be working 2 of the nights she was supposed to be at my house. It was too late to find someone else because she didn't come by until almost 9pm and I was flying out at 6am the next morning. I came home to trash and dirt on my floor, my fish tank filter not working and my tank very cloudy, a bunch of stuff in the dog crate including my pillow and a toy I told her not to leave in the crate, my kitchen sink clogged with dog food, dog food all over the sink, dog food all over a towel, the dog bowl had a huge chip in it so I can't even use it anymore, a missing wine glass, etc. She text me saying my dog wasn't eating and wanted to give him different food, not ok. During our back and forth I found out that after she had taken my dog to her house to play with her dogs, she then left him at her house over night while she went to work. She never asked me and I specifically have someone stay at my house because he gets anxious when he's not home. She also had the ac blasting even though it was 66 degrees outside and ran a whole load of laundry for 1 towel (not even the one with dog food all over it.) The excuse I got? "I didn't get much sleep" and "I was rushing to get home." She was so disrespectful to me, my home, and my pets. I was so upset when I walked into my home and she just kept denying and lying to me, never even apologized. Also she left my key outside under the mat after I specifically asked her to leave it inside on the table.

Rachel is fantastic. It was a difficult thing for us, to leave our dogs with somebody new, as they are very nervous and a bit defensive with their territories and when they are scared, however Rachel was able to gain the dog's trust and take care of them for a week. She truly loves dogs and knows a lot on how to deal with them.
