About: For my career I am a zookeeper taking care of all types of species from young to old. I have provided medical care and geriatric care. I currently work full time as a zookeeper and am looking for some side work that encompasses my passion of animals. Pet care is my full time job and full time home life. My pets have a fenced yard, an in/out kennel that allows them the freedom to be in or outside all day long. They have heat in the winter in the kennel and fans/fresh air in the summer. They stay in our home when we are home.
About: Hello everyone! I’m happy to be of service for you and your animals. I have many years of experience with dogs. I grew up with animals in my childhood home and am very comfortable with animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I have trained, raised and cared for several dogs myself. Daisy was a golden retriever, Zoe was my golden rough collie mutt, Molly was my 10-lb mutt, Charlie was my very sick mutt, Jess was my hyper husky blue heeler mutt, and now I have Frida. Frida is a sweet girl who loves to work. She is a border collie Australian Shepard mutt who came with me from ND. We are working on learning tricks and trying our hand at herding. Yes when I am with your dog we will work on basic obedience, manners, games, and tricks if you should like. I also have some experience with cats and would love more experience. I fostered a very sick kitten last year and have been around lots of friends’ and families’ cats. If there should be other animals that I have not worked with before, I would be happy to learn how to do so. And I would take my time to ensure I follow your care instructions thoroughly. Looking forward to helping you while you are away! Services in your home - you can rest assured knowing you have an extremely responsible and dependable person in your space.

“I can't say enough great things about Rachel! She does a fantastic job taking care of my dog and cats while I go away on vacation. Not only does she keep my dog active and happy with daily walks, but she also gives my cats the play, attention, and care they need. My pets approach her with love whenever she arrives. Rachel goes above and beyond by sending regular updates and photos, which really puts my mind at ease. It is clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats mine like her own. I always come home to happy, well-cared-for pets, and I couldn't be more grateful. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely stick with booking her for future trips!”

“Four cats and a dog while growing up....at least three cats since she's been on her own. Throughout it all, she has been a responsible caregiver, trainer, exercise supervisor, dietary technician, and trusted companion. Your pet(s) will enjoy her every bit as much as her own do . . and did!”
Beth H.
“Beth is a nurturer at heart. I know she has 4 fur babies and 2 cats she cares for at her house. She also had a special needs senior pug she cared for that had diabetes requiring insulin daily. I know she shows her love of animals out in public as well, bending down and getting on the floor at their level saying “Hi” right in the middle of the store! At the end of the day, I would trust my “kids” with her anytime!”
