Modern day Eliza Thornberry 😊

Pet care experience

I have grown up with cats my whole life, I currently have two orange tabby’s named Dobby and Louise. As a teen we rescued a greyhound and took him for walks and loved to cuddle with him. During the pandemic, I started dog walking for those who were deemed essential workers around my neighborhood. I wanted to help those who were helping us during such confusing times.

Rachel was awesome! We scheduled a brief phone call before her first visit to talk through logistics, which was very helpful to ensure everything was covered. The visit went according to plan. Rachel provided great pictures, a synopsis on Rover, and even a handwritten note. We would definitely book Rachel again!

Rachel did a wonderful job. We have four cats, one of which requires twice daily insulin injections. He is also very shy. Despite this demand, Rachel was not deterred and ensured that Duncan got his insulin injections every time. She was thorough and attentive to detail and bonded with all the cats.

I’d like to have a quick conversation with you first, to make sure I know the do’s and don’t you’ve implemented for you pet. If they are still learning commands, I want to be able to reinforce them with the proper words. I always like to carry extra poo bags with me on walks because I don’t want to leave any mess behind.

Information Rachel Z. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any nuances or special needs your pet has when it comes to walking or feeding and I will do my best to accommodate.

A typical day

I like to take dogs for walks around the park. Though I know some dogs, especially the older ones are set in their walking patterns, which is totally fine too! I like to provide enrichment games with pets as well.
