Animals are Pawsome!!

Pet care experience

Avid animal lover since childhood but dogs are my favorite. I grew up with dogs my entire life and my current furchild is a Beagle named Flash. Flash is 14 years old so I am very familiar with the responsibilities that come with taking care of a pet such as walking, feeding, and giving medications (oral). I am a recent college graduate with a B.S. in Animal Science hoping to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. My previous experience with animals aside from taking care of my own includes volunteering at an animal shelter where I walked the dogs on a daily basis. To me, pets are considered family so I will treat yours as such. I currently work full time as a veterinary technician/lead receptionist and I would be more than happy to take care of your pet(s) during my free time.

I've known Rachel for over a decade now and her love of animals has only grown since first meeting her. She truly cares about the well being of her pets as well as others. The few times I've asked her to watch my pups she has gone above and beyond. She makes sure they're happy and get the love and attention they need. My pups love her and recognize her by voice the minute she walks in the door. She wants to become a vet and you can see her passion for that. She'll always make sure that your pup is happy and safe when they're in her care. I don't trust any other friends or family to take care of my pup with as much detail and love as Rachel does. Definitely choose her as your sitter if you want to feel at ease when you can't take your pet with you.

Rachel is undoubtedly the right fit for every dog. She will be the Alpha Leader that shows love and compassion to every visit, an understanding of dog needs, and a proven track record of her responsibility as a dog owner. I (and my pup) highly recommend Rachel. I go to work with ease at mind knowing someone so dedicated will take care of my dogs as her own.

Rachel took care of my sweet boy Rocket until he passed away last year. She got his routine down quickly, even as his needs changed as he got older. She is quick to respond, reliable, flexible, professional, and I wouldn't trust my pets with anyone else. You can tell Rachel truly loves what she does and the safety of your fur babies are always a top priority. She always goes the extra mile with a smile and I am truly grateful for everything. Thank you Rachel!

Rachel was my roommate for over two years. She was always on time for rent and bills. She always pulled her weight when it came to chores etc. She never put anything before her responsibilities. Also, on several occasions she would feed and care for my two rabbits and cat if I left town. Often times I'd leave for a week or more at a time and she always did great! Rabbits are a very sensitive pet and she always helped to keep them comfy and loved in my absence. She is also a pre-vet and spent much of her time studying hard or volunteering to work with animals. I can't think of anyone I'd rather recommend!
