Tail-wagging guaranteed!

Pet care experience

It is entirely possible that I am as excited to walk your pup as they are to be walked. I promise to provide as much adventure as a walk (or visit) can allow where they (and you) are most comfortable. After 20+ years as a dog owner and lover, I am happy to walk dogs of any age, size, breed, or capacity for drool. As a full-time painter and post-graduate student at UChicago, I have the freedom to work my schedule around yours. Fair warning: your dog may be subject to enthusiastic art theory lectures during our stroll. I have extensive experience taking care of senior dogs, as well as high-energy youngsters, and am well equipped to provide your best friend with a tail-wagging time while safely navigating an urban environment.

Rachel offered to watch my Bruce extremely last minute as another babysitter had to cancel the day before. Rachel has such a joyful personality. I knew Bru would like her from the minute she stepped out of her Uber. She was so kind and attentive. She took notes in her notebook on all Bruce’s needs and wants. She kept me informed throughout the entire stay with updates as well as photos. Bruce looked like he had a great time. I’ll definitely be having Rachel watch Bruce again!!! Thanks Rachel :)

My name is Amy & I am Rachel's mother. We had dogs all the time when she was growing up. Ever since she was old enough to do so, she has helped take care of them. She so would like to have one now, but cannot because of apartment restrictions. Rachel was old enough to do everything for our dog, River. She fed him, made sure his water was fresh and the kennel was clean and comfortable. Rachel would also groom him. She would walk him daily, and cleaned up his messes during walks & threw them away. And whenever he had an accident in the house, she would take care of it right away without complaint. She LOVES dogs & would make a great dog care-giver & ROVER representative! Amy

Rachel is an excellent dog walker. She is incredibly friendly and reliable, and my puppy loves her. I highly recommend using Rachel when you need someone to look after your pup.

Information Rachel R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any health issues that I should know about, and how you would prefer that I handle them. I will always respect your wishes! I do not have any breed preferences only because I have never met a breed (or dog) that I didn't like.

A typical day

Each walk is an adventure, and I always try to vary my routes (within your comfort zone). The more that we can explore Chicago's neighborhoods, beaches, and parks, the better! I am always down for a mid-walk game of fetch and a break for ear scratching.
