Pet care experience

Pets are my passion

I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I have a dog myself that lives in Houston with my parents. I have been taking care of dogs in Boston since 2020 when I moved here. I have been taking care of dogs overnight since 2021. I have experience with all breeds, sizes and ages. I also have experience with blind and deaf dogs.

Rachel was amazing! She made us and Joey feel comfortable. She was super communicative and let us know how he was doing. We would book Rachel over and over.

Rachel was so great with our dog! Everything went smoothly, and he came back happy and relaxed. We’d definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment but there is ample outdoor space. I go on at least 3 walks a day myself so I can easily take your pet with me. I have no pets myself but Charlestown is a very dog friendly area.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks! We play games, go to the park. I have a big window so dogs typically love looking out the window!
