Information Rachel S. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing any medications or special feeding instructions to help plan the stay. Energy levels and routines are helpful as well as sleeping habits.

A typical day

I love going outside in the backyard throughout the day and encourage any dogs staying with me to come along, too. I also enjoy neighborhood walks, trail runs, and dog parks.

Pet care experience

I've had dogs and cats all my life and raised a shy temperament dog from puppy to end of life with compassion. Friends and family trust me with their fur family for extra TLC.

Riley says "I had a very good day at Rachel's. She let me play and hang out in the yard. I was very tired when I got home so I just had my dinner and went to bed early. "

Rachel is great. She’s watched Ace a few times and he seems to really enjoy his time there. She’s even been very accommodating when I’ve miscounted the number of meals I’ve packed! Definitely recommend

Rachel was able to watch Aspen for a last-minute booking when prior care fell through. As he is newly adopted, a puppy (at 7 mos), was abused in his very early puppyhood, and suffers some ongoing anxiety, to say I was nervous about how he was going to do was an understatement. Upon meeting Rachel at the meet & greet, I was instantly at ease. She has a calm and soothing demeanor, and was such a perfect fit for him, that I could not believe our luck. It felt like the universe conspired to make sure SHE would be his first sitter, so he can continue to learn that the world has many kind and loving people in it. Rachel was a proactive communicator, sharing pictures and updates, sometimes almost at the exact moment I found myself thinking, "I wonder what they're up to?" I was able to relax and put my focus where it needed to be: with my extended family for my mom's memorial service. I cannot express what a gift it was to not have to worry about this sweet little guy for my first time away from him. As I look ahead to future travel, I'll check in with Rachel first.

This was our dog’s (10 & 12 years old) first experience with doggie daycare. Rachel put them (and me) at ease. They seemed to have a great day with Rachel and her fabulous backyard.
