Pet owner & Pet lover here to help

Pet care experience

I've been a vegetarian and animal lover my whole life, owning animals of all species since a small child. The past 3 years I've been caring for a dog that at one point was unruly, disobedient, and very high anxiety. With lots of love and care she has become the most docile loving dog and the celebrity of the neighborhood. This has given me first hand experience with dogs that may scare away other care takers or dogs that need a little extra love and attention when away from home. I currently work from home as a massage therapist giving me plenty of free time caring for your dog. I am very flexible for all your pets needs. We have a 3 story house with plenty of space inside for the dogs to play and relax. My boyfriend and roommate are also dog lovers so there will be no shortage of love and snuggles. I have a 6 year old Dutch Shepherd mix who loves to play with new friends and roll around in the yard. We have a decent sized back yard with 2 leads for dogs that need to stay leashed, otherwise I spend time outside with them to run around and play. There is a park right behind my house for walks and more playtime. At the park there is a fenced in area for basketball that I like to use to throw a ball around and burn that puppy energy. I live on a dead end road so no danger of fast cars. I also have a minivan with plenty of blankets, pillows, and space for the dogs for a drive to one of the nearby dog parks.

Rachel was excellent, great communicator and kind to my animals. She went out of her way to make sure my dogs were returned to my house safely!

This was my first boarding service with Rachel and she was fantastic. In our meet & greet I knew immediately Cooper was going to be in great hands. Rachel was very flexible with my schedule, I received several updates daily, and pictures that showed they were always playing or walking. My Cooper came home worn out and happy! Definitely recommended. I hope to use her services again.
