Dogs are my joy :)

Pet care experience

My parents got a dog when I was 9 that I have helped care for. I have taken care of neighbors' and friends' dogs throughout high school and college. One year ago I adopted my own rescue named Ollie when he was 6 years old. He has a lot of anxiety and some behavior problems, but with consistent training and care, he is like a completely different dog! I work especially well with anxious dogs and I'm willing to go out of my way to provide an environment where a pup can feel safe and calm.

Rachel did a great job taking care of my dogs! She sent us lots of photos and updates, and replied quickly to any questions I had.

Rachel is simply the best! She’s so patient and sweet and has the most amazing personality! Both me and the dogs absolutely adore her and I will DEFINITELY be requesting her services again.

Our family was nervous using Rover for the first time. Rachel was awesome with our old Pup. She went above and beyond. Big Thank You!! Will be using again.

Information Rachel S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know the location of necessary supplies (leash, poop bags, treats, etc) if they're not immediately visible! It is also helpful to know about any unique behaviors or traits your dog may have, whether that's something they dislike or their favorite way to play, so I can make them comfortable. Also feel free to let me know about any ongoing training so I can keep things consistent for your pup!

A typical day

I love to spend time outside with dogs! Especially if you have a backyard and your dog loves to play fetch or run around, I'm happy to get active and run around with them! I love going to nearby parks or nature areas on walks to provide an enriching experience.

Availability

I'm currently job-hunting, so I have fairly open availability. What better way to earn some extra cash than by getting some exercise and hanging out with dogs! Once I start work, I will update my availability, but in the meantime, I'm happy to pop in during odd hours. :)
