Pampering for your fur baby!

Pet care experience

I've been petsitting for almost 20 years and I was able to adopt a sweet senior mini-schnauzer in 2021 named Marty. Marty LOVES other dogs and we would love to keep your dog company while you're out of town, on weekends and school holidays.

I've known Rachel for years, and she is always engaged, enthusiastic, and respectful. Marty, her own dog, has benefited immensely from her constant attention to his health, diet, and activity level, vastly improving his physical and emotional health since his adoption. Her patience and love for pets is only matched by her consideration for their owners and other caretakers. Ensuring everyone is informed of any problems, questions, or other potential issues through regular communication is always a top priority. She genuinely cares about the lives of everyone involved and is as trustworthy as they come.

Information Rachel S. would like to know about your pet

Happy to administer oral or injected medication. I will need to do a meet and greet to make sure you're dog is ok with Marty and vice versa.

A typical day

Marty and I always go for a walk first thing then breakfast, playtime, and since he's older, a nap. I'm in graduate school in addition to working so I'm home all day on the weekends. I love to play fetch, tug of war, and hide things for the dogs to dig out of blankets or boxes.
