The Fun (and responsible) Dog Aunt!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Rachelle (pronounced 'Rachel'). I'm 29, live in LES in a pet-friendly building and one (pet-friendly) roommate! I work remotely 2 days a week (Wednesday and Friday) and I love long walks, snuggles, and food. (All of these things I've also put on my dating profile...but I digress... we're here to talk about your dog!) Pet Care Experience: For the past 2 1/2 years, I was a loving dog aunt to a Yorkie named Jax (my oldroommate's dog). Jax was quite the rambunctious pup, so I got a crash course in pet care really fast! My roommate worked a lot, so when she wasn't around, I would volunteer to watch, feed, and walk Jax. I took care of him like he was my own. Special Skills: Pup snuggles, long luxurious walks around Seward Park and LES, cleaning up after your dog without hesitation (Jax really enjoyed pooping in places other than his puppy pad! Some notable spots: middle of the living room, my bed, and 4 inches to the right of the puppy pad.), and I will send you TONS of photos of your pup while they're in my care! My roommate moved to London a few months ago so there's a very empty place in my heart where taking care of Jax was. I'm considering adopting my own pupper in the next year or so, but in the meantime, I'd love the chance to care for your furry friend!

Rachelle did a wonderful job with my puppy Bella. Rachelle sent me a lot of updates and pictures, and at the end of the day when I went to pick Bella up, she wouldn't budge from the hallway to go with me, and leaned back towards the door on Rachelle's apartment, protesting our leaving. It gave me a laugh, and that review really speaks for itself.

Rachelle pays attention to detail. She wanted to make sure kitano’s needs, she is prompt, reliable, trustworthy and will update me when I’m out of town which is always comforting. I I would HIGHLY recommend Rachelle and her pet sitting services to everyone. I am super happy to have found her.

Rachelle was absolutely amazing! She was very communicative, sent TONS of photos, and took great care of my pup. Highly recommend her and look forward to the next time.

Information Rachelle L. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting your dog, I want to know about any health concerns that I'll need to keep in mind, any behavioral characteristics to be wary of and general personality so I know how to interact with your furry friend. I don't have any breed preferences - I love all dogs!

A typical day

I live in LES, so I'm happy to take your dog to a close-by park (Seward Park, Coleman Oval Dog Run, Corlears Park) or just a long walk along the East River - whatever they're used to, I'm happy to make accommodations. What does your dog like to do for fun? Do they love to play fetch? Tug of war with their favorite toy? Or, are they more of a 'Hulu & snuggle with you' kind of pup? Let me know what type of activities they enjoy and I'll make sure we get in our activities before the night's over.
