Kind heart, respectful rescue mom

Pet care experience

I try to get to know your pet on a personal level through fun, respect, and kindness. I will maintain rules and expectations with your pet. I will look them in the eye and talk to them like a human when working to correct behaviors rewarding with fun or (shh! Approved snacks!) I had cats and dogs for years and work very hard at "work-life" balance when teaching skills. I'm able to walk any distance and will visit off-leash areas as appropriate.

As usual, Rachel took excellent care of Coco! It’s always a comfort knowing she’s checking on my sweet kitty while I’m gone!

I always know that our kitty will be well cared for when I book Rachel as my Rover!

I have open availability at this time! Seeking opportunities to help walk, or do overnights as needed. I can support your needs! I walk myself for 30-60 minutes daily so longer treks with a companion would be excellent! Pets are fed, played with, and walked on a set schedule.
