Availability

I’m available 7 days a week. I recently left my job of 20 years in the insurance industry. I really feel like I don’t want to spend the rest of my life doing something sitting at a desk when I know I’m capable of more such as taking care of animals. I am truly looking forward to meeting your fur family members.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a pretty big backyard. It is fenced in. And I have a huge basement that’s finished carpeted has its own living furniture. That’s very comfortable environment too just in case there’s an animal that does not do well with other animals I can make a special place for them down there. But otherwise I’m pretty lenient with my animals like they’re allowed to get on my furniture, and sometimes they like to sleep with me, so that invitation is definitely extended to your animals. Also if that’s something that they need and are used to at your house. I am willing to bring your animals to my house or stay at your house whichever is the most comfortable for your fur babies.

Information Rachel T. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any special needs, or meds they are taking. How they do with certain dogs or cats? What they do not like done to or with them? Example: like when they eat, or if they are chewing on toys.

A typical day

For starters they will always feel safe and loved. We will play with tons of toys, and we have a huge yard to run. I will take them on walks, and possibly dog parks if allowed by their owners.

I have been a pet owner for the last 15 years, I have had Datsun, Boston terrier, I have an Australian shepherd, mixed with Datsun, and I have experience with three separate cats… I am very caring, very empathetic and just fun.

The love and passion I have with pets is, I just love their innocence and the loyalty that they give you… I will treat your animals like they are my own family .

Rachel is so amazing to work with. She goes above and beyond. Our flights changed and she was able to stay an extra night to be with Meatball. She’s a fantastic communicator and treats our Meaty like her own. We can’t recommend her enough!!

Rachel is amazing!! She took the best care of our 2 dogs, 1 who is blind and senior. Our house looked great when we returned. I’d gladly hire Rachel again!!

Racheal was able to come watch our dogs very last minute which we appreciate very much. She was very good with communication and even sent a video to us while we were away. Will definitely book again!
