Best friends deserve the most love.

Pet care experience

I've had two dogs throughout my life, Muffy and Carter, and they're a huge part of what makes me who I am. They taught me about unconditional love, patience, play, companionship, and to enjoy the simple things. Animals, especially dogs, give me hope. They provide a sense of calm and understanding that no other can. They truly are a best friend, maybe even more so than any person. I, personally, would rather hang out with dogs than people 100% of the time, no exaggeration. They deserve the best care, the most love, and the biggest smiles. I can promise to give your best friend all of that, and more because all dogs have my heart. "Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our life whole."

Rae seems like a kind and intelligent person. We liked her very much upon meeting her. She was respectful in our home and seemed to be an animal person. I do not recommend her for anyone with a senior or special needs dog, however. She sat for us during a five day trip for us last year. Our dog was a senior and had health issues and special needs, but was generally doing ok, and many people noted she was still puppy-like, in spite of her age. Rae indicated she was ok with all of our dog's special needs... However, a few days into the trip our dog became ill. Rae went back and forth with me to help her get to feeling better, and assured us our dog was doing ok. When our plane landed back in LA, however, we received a text that our dog had taken a turn for the worse. Rae had left her there... It was three hours before we got home to her. She was in far worse condition then we realized, disoriented and severely dehydrated. She had gone into acute kidney failure. In spite of a nearly $7,000 hospital stay at the top animal hospital in LA, she died. We feel like Rae is probably a good person, but her knowledge, judgement, skill, and maturity levels, are not suited for caring for special needs or senior animals.

Rae was just wonderful with our dogs, one of whom needs medication several times a day. You can tell Rae really loves animals and our dogs took to her immediately, which made us feel so comfortable going away. I highly recommend Rae and will definitely use her services again!

Rae is a kind and loving person. She is great with pets and children. She has walked and cared for my dog and I would recommend her highly. Her generous and gentle nature make her a natural for being a pet caregiver.

When you meet Rae you will find her to be compassionate, caring, kind, polite and respectful, all qualities she would bring to being a loving dog caregiver. Our dog Carter, a 14 year old Bichon Poodle, misses her deeply. They say you can tell a lot about a person based how they treat animals. Rae is, simply, an animal lover who will care for your dog with the same care she shared with Carter. Dogs know a fake when they smell one, Rae is no fake, she will care for and protect your dog.
