“She took great care of our 3 dogs and 1 cat, very thankful for her. Would recommend and use her again. Timely check ins, pictures of our fur babies, and nice detailed notes about them were all appreciated.”


“My three cats were happy, cared for according to my instructions, and Rachel's communications were great. Our first experience with her and we will definitely have her at the top of our list next time!”

About: I have loved taking care of pets my whole life. I currently have two giant breed, English Mastiffs. Hunter 170 lbs. Athena 150 lbs. So from Itty bitty pups to giant breed adult dogs, I'm your gal! I am professional, reliable, honest and trustworthy. Your pets and your home will be safe with me while you're away. ❤️ I'm currently semi-retired and still work in my field but I am 100% remote. I am a director for an IT staffing company. So my schedule is flexible to take care of pets. I'm available during the week now if it's ok that I work from your home. Hoping to be 100% retired by the end of the year. So excited! ❤️ I will feed, water and provide meds. I can bathe, brush, walk and play with your pets if you like. I love to love on them and hold them for as long as they will let me. I spoil our pets and I'll spoil yours too, if that's ok! I'm happy to do drop ins. I can feed your cats or fish too. I'm experienced with both. No one will care for your home and your pets like I will!

About: My specialty is mainly extra time and patience for helping traumatized pets feel safe and learn to enjoy life. I've helped countless dogs learn how to even be dogs with only compassion and love. I know every dog can be helped with time, patience and observing cues. I raised Meeko, an Australian Shepherd who could solve the energy crisis 😁 I named him after the dog in Skyrim near Solitude. I discovered my passion for training especially through researching into raising a high energy working breed 😄 I trained him as my own service dog and he became one for other dogs in many ways, he helped so many dogs heal and realize other dogs are actually cool. I know how scary it is to trust someone with your pet so I will give plenty of videos, pictures and stories, nothing is too needy 😄 I work a tech support/medical assistant job from home so I have a very flexible schedule. I spend most of my time rehabilitating pets and wildlife. The rest of my time is spent enjoying art, nature, games and life 🤓 Most of our day would be nature walks and exploring. There's a big gated dog park next too my building too. We would otherwise be relaxing - they would get spoiled with love, treats toys and play time.
About: Previous animal technician with over 10 years of experience. Love all animals as my own. Providing hugs ,walks, snuggles, and lots of outdoor play time. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I'm available on weekdays and most weekends, with flexibility for morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on what works for your pet's schedule. I build in dedicated time for walks, feeding, and play so your pet gets consistent attention rather than a rushed visit. If you have a specific routine your pet is used to, I'm happy to stick to it." Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of grass for running, sniffing, and playtime. Pets are supervised whenever they're outside, and I do regular check-ins around the yard and home to make sure everything stays secure. Indoors, they have a cozy, comfortable space to relax, plus fresh water always available. I treat every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attention, and lots of love.
About: I have always loved dogs and have always been amazing with them. Pets make your life so much better and happier. They touch your soul. I promise to give you the best luxury they deserve. I work full time from 8 am-4 pm but will adjust my schedule based on what the pet needs. I will spoil them, give them LOTS of attention, and give the same love you give them at home. I will walk, clean after your pets, feed, water, and play with your furbaby while you are away. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat. 1 Pomeranian and 1 husky who are crate trained and well behavior. They are good with other animals and do not provoke altercations. I walk them daily, feed them on a precise schedule, play with them, and mainly give them all the love they want and deserve.
“Came to town to visit friends and needed a day sitter for the dogs. Thankful that Rachel was willing to watch all 3. She was happy with their swag bag of treats and toys for the day.”

“Samuel is an excellent dog walker! He was great with our mini pit (who’s leash reactive), and was very communicative. He was always on time and did a great job. Will be hiring again!”

“Mocha loved meeting Jonita and going for a walk with her. We like that Jonita tries to follow what we do and doesn’t allow Mocha to jump up on her etc when she’s overly excited. I’m sure we will book again!”
