Pet care experience

No dog too big or small 🦮🐾

I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life, from large, lovable Labradors and Golden Retrievers to my sassy tortoiseshell cat, who has kept me on my toes for the past six years. Currently, I’m the proud owner of a high-energy, 70-pound Labrador who never runs out of adventures to chase. Caring for animals comes naturally to me. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly trust me to walk, feed, and care for their pets—whether it’s a playful pup, a curious cat, or both at once! My background in dog training, including years spent training service dogs in high school, has given me valuable skills and a deep understanding of animal behavior. With a lifelong passion for pets and hands-on experience, I bring energy, enthusiasm, and dedication to every aspect of pet care.

Rachel was amazing and will absolutely be watching our cats in the future (if avail)! She was very communicative, and did a great job finding our cats with photos to make sure they were doing well, even when a bit shy. Cats were in great hands!

Rachel was fantastic with our two cats who are very shy. She got them to come out and say hello! They were well taken care of and Rachel was very prompt with our requested times so they didn't stress out over delayed mealtimes. We felt very comfortable leaving our cats under her care.

Safety, trust & environment

Since I have a 70 pound dog and live in an apartment, I'm constantly going on 20+ minute walks with my dog as well as making sure she is occupied and distracted while she is at home (lots of bully sticks, puzzles, slow eaters, and towels with treats). Since I also have a cat, I'm also use to dealing with litter and feeding daily (my cat has IBS so I make sure she takes the proper medication and has the right diet. Lots of play time for both animals as they are high energy.

Pets

A typical day

I’m passionate about keeping dogs happy, healthy, and engaged—both mentally and physically! I love introducing dogs to stimulating activities, from interactive games that challenge their minds to outdoor adventures that let them explore exciting new scents in the neighborhood. Trips to the park are always action-packed, with plenty of games, exercise, and opportunities for your pup to have fun and burn off energy. Whether it’s a curious nose or a playful spirit, I’m here to make sure every dog gets the attention, enrichment, and care they deserve!
