Pet care experience

Hello my name is Rachel and I have been boarding and training dogs for the last four years. I have have trained and showed dogs for over 15 years now and I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I love all types of dogs from the big ones to the little ones. I have experience showing dogs and clients dogs in different events such as agility, frisbee, and obedience and have traveled all over the Midwest competing in a variety of events. I have also dog sat for a number of clients and your pets safety is my priority. I am young and energetic and will be able to provide your pet with lots of walks and playtime as well! Your dog will be treated like one of my own and will be provided with quality care. I am very flexible with my schedule and can watch your dog overnights as well. Also, I am cat friendly as well and can take care of your feline companion. Thank you for considering me for your pets care, hope to hear from you soon!

Rachel was very accommodating. She is an obvious dog lover and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She has a great setup and I was afraid my dog wasn’t going to want to come home! I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.
