Here to love and care for your pet!

Pet care experience

I grew up with two dachshunds and currently have two mixed breed dogs that I adopted from my local ASPCA when I was 12 and 14 years old. Dogs have always been there for me and have made me smile and laugh when no one else could, as cheesy as it sounds. I have always been an animal activist with a huge belief in having a job you love. This is why I opened up my very own pet sitting business in my neighborhood back in my hometown. I have had many dog walking and pet sitting gigs since November 2014.

Rachel was absolutely awesome! She took such good care of Rozzi & Ruby. Sent a ton of great pictures, checked in constantly and left our house spotless. Rachel, thanks, we look forward to working with you in the future! Tom & Amber

Rachel was great with watching our sweet moose on short notice! She was prompt in returning messages, super friendly and kept us updated with lots of pictures! She made sure moose got lots of walks which he loves and sent updates while he was away from us, I would definitely book with Rachel again!

Rachel was amazing! So communicative, pleasant and was always sending pictures and updates. The dogs were more than taken care of with daily long walks. Highly recommend Rachel!

I have a hybrid work schedule, and work from home on Thursday's and Friday's which means I can pet sit starting Wednesday evenings until Sunday evenings. When I work from home, I am able to give your dog frequent potty breaks, and give them long(er) walks in the evenings.
