Pet care experience

I've have taken care of dogs of all kinds. I have had dogs growing up and currently have a standard poodle who is super friendly and loves other dogs. I have experience with walking, feeding, bathing, training, escorting dogs in my car, and giving pet medications. I can do it all. I have additional references if you should want them.

100% recommend!! We have two small dogs and one medium/large dog and was gone for 10 days. Rachel took care of them no problem. I'm sure they were a handful! They have a huge yard, and she is home all day so there's always someone to watch the doggies. Also very fast communication.

Rachel did an amazing job. She sent pictures and updates during my dog’s stay with her. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her in the future.

Rachel was so sweet and kind. She seems very reliable and made me feel very comfortable knowing Karma would be taken of with her. Will definitely reach out again ❤️🐾❤️
