Lovin' on your pets when you can't
Pet care experience
I have taken care of and owned dogs and cats my entire life. I have worked with and at shelters and rescues. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and try to adopt and care for them as much as possible. I have been walking dogs and caring for animals for many years and enjoy my time with each and every one. You can see more of me and my favorite animals on Instagram @rachels.pack
Reviews
Rachel is amazing :) always goes above and beyond to give thorough status updates and ensure my cat is happy and healthy. I love booking with her!
It’s always a pleasure to have Rachel drop in on Oliver. We’re super lucky to have found her.
As always, Rachel has been wonderful! She is always so good with Oliver and tires him out with play during her drop in visits. We also always love reading the detailed Rover cards she leaves for us. Just goes to show the attention she gives to Oliver even though she is only with him for 30 minutes. 1000% recommended to anyone needing a drop in visit!
Rachel’s updates are the best. Thanks for giving our senior cat daily love while we were away :)

I adapt walks and drop in visits based on what your pet needs and wants. I can take them for a walk, play, or just hang out and snuggle. Just let me know what your pet wants and I will make it happen! For dogs - I always make sure the dog is 100% comfortable before we leave for a walk. That leads to be possible experience for your pet so they are comfortable, safe, and happy.
Information Rachel S. would like to know about your pet
I love senior and special needs dogs. Please let me know ahead of time about any behavior, emotional, or physical adaptations your dog has and I will do my best to accommodate them.
A typical day
I'm happy to go on walks at the pace of your dog. If your dog just wants to smell the roses - I am used to that (my senior dog walks about a 40 minute mile.) If your dog needs activity and exercise I'm happy to take them on a long walk or play games with them to tire them out.

Availability
I am self employed and a stay at home mom. My sons love animals as well and so they love to walk the dogs with me. It's a great way to build family time and teach them responsibility. While they are at school I have a very flexible schedule in order to fit in dog walks, drop ins, etc. Drop ins - I am at your disposal for whatever time you choose. You choose what your pet needs and I will deliver. I can walk, feed, play with, pet, snuggle, etc. I always make sure to check your house, bring in packages, and let you know of any concerns with the pet or house. I have owned my own homes as well as had many furbabies so I know how hard it is to leave all of that behind. I will communicate a lot and send plenty of pics so you know that your pets and home are in good hands. Walks - walks are so important for many reasons. It gives dogs the opportunity to stretch their legs as well as their brains by sniffing and scenting. If you have a specific goal for your pet (ie - need to get energy out, or just needs a potty break), please let me know. Otherwise I will do my best to give them what they need based on their energy level, age, etc. Daycare - I have two very mellow older Great Pyrenees, a fully fenced large backyard, and my husband and I are home all day. I am self employed and so my schedule is very flexible. I only take 1 dog a day for daycare so I can wholly focus on them. They will have supervised access to my backyard, supervised play time with my dogs, walks, and r&r. I can pickup and deliver your dog back to your house for daycare visits if needed. My whole goal is take the best care of your pet in the most individualized fashion and to make it easy on you!
