About Me

Thanks for stopping by! I'm Rachel and I'm accompanied on my journeys by two handsome floofs, my hearts, Bean and Beau. I've been a home and pet caretaker on and off for many years both for agencies and friends. As well as a teacher, nanny, insurance agent, bartender, elections administrator, and even an MTV employee! I love to write, read, travel, cook, go on long walks with my pups, and hit my yoga mat. I'm fully vaccinated and boosted against Covid 19. I'm also a volunteer at Episcopal Senior Homes and pass a FBI background and fingerprint check yearly to maintain this position. When you work with me, you should expect a collaboration with transparency, security, and peace of mind. I'm here to take care of two of the most importants pieces of your life when you can't. Your hearth (your home) and your heart (your pet) will be looked after with love and attention! Get care where it counts the most. Want to learn more? Contact me today for an initial inquiry!

Bean & Beau

My Traveling Circus

Bean (right) is a 13-year-old Pomeranian. He didn't quite get the memo and enjoys his "big dog" status at 20 lbs! He loves people and other dogs, and won't be discouraged if they don't love him back. But come on, who wouldn't love this floof?! He's curious but happy to coexist with other species. Bean is obedience and house-trained and snoozes most of his day. Bean and I have been a team since 2009.

​

Beau (left) is a 4-year-old black Lab mix. He thinks his tiny ears make him just a "wee lap dog" and he'd love to sit on your lap please! Beau is obedience and house trained and very concerned about being a good boy! He loves most of all to snuggle and otherwise play play play! He rarely barks and gets along great with other dogs and humans. He's curious but happy to coexist with other species. Beau came to me as a rescue foster in March of 2020 and became my "foster fail" also in March 2020!

Home: Testimonials

We were so impressed with Rachel's services! First, she was willing to come to our home TWICE to acclimate our (sometimes reactive) dog to hers prior to our vacation. Second, she provided excellent care to Malone, our 70-pound OES (she even sent us a couple messages/photos). Third, she took immaculate care of our home. It was in pristine condition upon our return - bed laundered and remade, bathrooms and kitchen "spick & span" and floors swept of dog hair. I give Rachel the highest possible recommendation. We will definitely be using her services again.
