Have 2+ dogs? No problem!
Pet care experience
I have wide experience in caring for deaf, blind, older, and even amputee dogs! I also love the crazy ones - it’s so satisfying to finally tire them out! I have two dogs myself (who are total opposites), so I love getting to work with dog siblings.
Reviews
Rachel was wonderful! So attentive and detailed with my kitty while I was away. I would absolutely hire her for pet sitting again!
Our dogs love Rachel----even the puppy who is still in "stranger danger" mode. Thank you again for your help.
Rachel took great care of our pups!
We had a wonderful experience! Great communication and care for our puppy!
About Rachel T.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I love building a relationship with your pet based on their needs - Are they shy with strangers and need a gentle approach? I can do that! Are they super friendly and want to play immediately? I can do that, too! I absolutely read their demeanor and adjust so that safety and trust are always reinforced.
Information Rachel T. would like to know about your pet
Although I’ll be with your pet, you are still in control! Let me know if there are things you don’t want them to do (jump up, bark, get on the couch) and how you normally correct them (no, tug the collar, down). I want to make sure that when I’m with your dog, they are given the same directions and corrections as they get with you!
A typical day
I love being outdoors and try to maximize fresh air time at every visit! We can walk fast, slow, the same route, different places, or find a field and play fetch! I also love to bring pups to the dog park to run free, play with friends, and sniff around at their own pace!
