College student with flexible hours

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Rachel! I'm a college student looking to walk dogs in my spare time. With classes online, my hours are pretty flexible, and I'm willing to schedule walks on a week by week basis. Growing up, I've never not had a dog around me, so living in a no pets apartment has really me eager to be around animals again. I'm willing to help train, feed, and walk dogs. I have experience with dogs up to 75 pounds but am flexible and willing to walk bigger or smaller dogs. I also have experience walking up to 3 dogs and am willing to walk multiple dogs at once. I'm currently doing school online, so I'm COVID safe and plan on wearing a mask in public and on our walks. I'm active and enjoy running and hiking, so energetic and active dogs are more than welcome :)

Rachel was sweet, flexible and communicative. We really appreciated the care she took for Otto, and we were lucky to have her! Thanks so much Rachel!

Rachel was so helpful in taking care of my dog for the weekend while I was away. She responded so promptly, was very sweet and caring, and sent updates while I was away. She stayed over and helped him adjust to me being away. Pijiu was so happy to meet her and we will definitely ask to use her services again :) Thank you Rachel!

Our dog needs a lot of attention. Rachel gave him lots of love and followed through with all of our special instructions to make Ollie happy. I would definitely use her services again.

Rachel is very professional, reliable, and has a great personality! Her genuine love for pets really shows in the great care and service she provides. I will definitely book Rachel to walk my dog again in the future!

Let me know when your pet typically eats as well as how many hours a day you would like me to be home for! I do work so I want to make sure I can still provide the time necessary to care for your pet.

A typical day

There are plenty of parks and hiking trails nearby that I would be able to take your pet to. I also would love to fetch your dogs or take them on a drive.
