Pet care experience

Dogs are truly family here!

I have owned dogs since I was 8 years old! From raising two puppies to housing a friends dog temporarily, I have acquired experience with training dogs as small as french bulldogs to as big as pitbulls! I have a passion for animals and truly treat them as family.

Rachel did a great job with our pups. So grateful we can trust her to follow our instructions to a T and take wonderful care of them during drop-ins.

Rachel will take excellent care of your dogs! Our dogs got lots of love, and Rachel took great care of our house while we were away. Would happily use her again!

We love having Rachel watch our pups! She’s communicative, on-time, and takes lots of great photos. Dogs are always happy and healthy when we get home.

Rachel took amazing care of our two dogs and cat while we were away for a week. She provided daily updates and treated our pets like family. Highly recommend Rachel! She’s a gem.

I work part-time in the summer at a retail store where the shifts are 4 hours (but with enough notice I can request off and be available for all your pups needs!) I currently attend the U of I in Urbana-Champaign, but can pet sit/drop in most Fridays-Mondays!

Let me know in advanced if your dog has any special requirements like medicines or injections or cleanings. That way I can just make sure I'm the right fit for you! I am completely fine administering any oral medication, but anything else I'd very much be willing to learn but would appreciate a heads up about!
