Your dog will love staying with us!

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs for the majority of my life and have been a trusted dog walker and pet sitter for my friends and family for 15+ years. I have cared for dogs of all ages and personalities and I take joy in treating them like family. We have a spacious fenced-in backyard with plenty of grass for potty breaks and chasing after squirrels. I am the proud dog mom of a 8 lb mini cockapoo that is fully vaccinated, well-socialized, and playful with other dogs. I know how hard it is to be away from your dogs so I am happy to provide you with daily updates and pictures. I look forward to taking care of your pet!

Our girl was very well cared for! This was her 2nd time with Rachel. It's great peace of mind knowing she's in good hands. We love getting the updates and pics while we're away.

This was the first time we had anyone outside the family watch our dog Sydney. Rachel was kind and supportive as we fretted. Sydney was well taken care of and we’d use Rachel again.

I work full time as a teacher. On days that I am working, I am able to run home during my lunch break to give dogs a mid-day potty break. During breaks from school (i.e. spring break, summer break, Thanksgiving week, etc.), I am able to be home all day. When I'm home, I'm able to give dogs bathroom breaks every 0-2 hours and frequent walks around my neighborhood.
