Our family hasn't travelled much at all on vacation lately so we did worry a lot how it would be to leave our little dog behind. It was obvious from the first time we met Rachel that she was very experienced with dogs, and had so much patience and kindness. Her own dog, Lou and even her cat, Benny were welcoming to Saki. Rachel was so thoughtful and sent us daily updates and photos of their nature walks, while we were away. It is clear to us that Saki gives Rachel a 5 star rating, snuggling with her, and even letting her pick him (no one outside our family does that!). If we could, we would give her 100 stars! Thanks Rachel.

Rachel was great with my two pups! The were right at home with her and she sent lots of updates & pictures which I appreciated very much. I had a great sense of comfort with her watching my fur babies. Thank you Rachel! :)

Rachel did a wonderful job of taking care of our Ollie. She got her outside, and gave her lots of love and cuddles. Rachel kept me informed with texts and pictures. This was really appreciated as I knew Ollie was in good hands. I am really pleased with Rachel, and look forward to her next visit!

Rachel once again provided a great overnight outing for Decker. She was flexible with her schedule to help meet ours. Spent lots of quality time with Decker. Rachel’s dog Lou was also an excellent host! Thanks
