About Rachel

Hi there!

My name is Rachel, I am a Canadian living in Melbourne. I am positive, energetic, and friendly. I am also caring, responsible, and have great communication skills.

I first moved to Australia in 2016, on a Working Holiday Visa and returned to pursue an MBA at Edith Cowan University in Melbourne. Now that I have graduated, I am working full time, Mon-Wednesday in the office and the rest of the week from my home in Elwood. I live with my boyfriend Liam, who also helps take care of our animal clients. He is great with all types of animals and has a lot of experience too. I have lived and visited all over Australia and loved living here.

I absolutely love caring for animals as my side gig! I have experience working as a dog walker in Canada and Australia, and have always loved it! I am confident in my ability to walk and care for all types of dogs with different needs. My experience also includes house-sitting, daycare, and administering medication.

Dog sitting and dog boarding services will include a minimum half-hour walk.

At home I have a Schnauzer named Pepper, he is turning 7 in February! I used to have cats and birds as well so I have ample experience with them too. In my free time, I love to go to the beach, go to a yoga or pilates class, read, and write.

I am a huge animal lover and hope I get the chance to meet and take care of your pets! Please feel free to contact me at any time!

Cheers, Rachel
