About: Our family had a cat who lived to be around 15 years old. Cats typically like me. Now I have a small friendly dog, who likes cats or dogs. I have successfully taking care of many family and friends pets throughout the years. I have a perfect set up in my home for pet care. There is a doggie door which leads to the dog yard. Also I have a screen porch where pets can hang out. I am retired, so pets will be monitored at all times. My cabin has a fenced and secured dog yard. There is a doggie door with easy in and out access at will for dogs. Cats will not have access to the dog yard and will use a litterbox only.
“Rachel took very good care of Ziggy. My work schedule changed a few times and she was very patient with the changes and flexible. She took pictures and kept me updated throughout the day. Ziggy played well with her dog Hugo and even learned about cats. Rachel addressed all my concerns prior to us leaving Ziggy with her and was even open to a meet-n-greet which helped settle me. We plan to use Rachel for a long run this March.”
