I am here to help your pup!

Pet care experience

After a few years away, I have decided to reactivate my Rover profile - hence why some of my reviews are older! I love animals, and I want to be able to help take of your pets! I am willing to walk, feed, brush, and play with your dog, cat, or other furry friends while you are out of town. I can travel to your home for walks and drop in visits. Unfortunately, because I have a dog of mine own, I cannot have pets stay at my apartment. I do have a 9-5 job, so I am typically available before 8:30am and after 5:00pm during the week and anytime on the weekends. However, my schedule may very since I work from home part of the week! I have pet sat for a variety of family and friends over the years, and I have never had an unsatisfied customer. I love animals, and I want to be able to spend my timing helping to take care of animals in addition to my own. Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs all my life, and I am currently a mom to Jack, a beagle mix, and Elliot, a terrier mix! They are both rescue pups from local organizations.

I do have pets in my home, and therefore, I cannot have animals stay with me. However, I am happy to come to you and make sure that your pets are well taken care of and spend time walking, feeding, and playing with your animals! Every visit is at least 30 minutes, and I always share pictures and updates.

Information Rachel Y. would like to know about your pet

I have worked with a variety of breeds and behaviors over the years. I am well versed in how to handle different animal personalities, but do like to know a pet's requirements upfront.

A typical day

I live in a very dog friendly part of Arlington where there is easy access to many trails, dog parks, and areas for you dog to enjoy the outdoors. When I come to your home to walk dogs, I am happy to take recommendations on the best places for your dog to get out, exercise, and enjoy being outside.
