Dear Pet Owner:

I am writing to share my experience with Rachel, who has given exceptional care to our two dogs since December, 2005.  Rachel came to us through a referral at our vet’s office, Dr. Madden in Ambler.  We had just brought a new puppy home and needed someone to come in each day to exercise him and help acclimate him to his new home.  On several occasions, I also scheduled Rachel for dinner visits, when work required that I be out in the evening.  Eventually, Rachel came to stay with our dogs while I traveled overnight for 3-4 evenings at a time.

Our new puppy is a Siberian Husky, full of energy and just a little stubborn.  Our older dog is a cocker spaniel.  He has a wonderful temperament, but has had the house to himself for 11 years and is still trying to figure out this new puppy.  Rachel is wonderfully patient and loving with these two dogs.  But she is also a great help in training as she enforces house rules and follows through on training strategies that we’ve learned.  She has had to manage more than a few challenging situations, particularly with the new puppy, but she has always risen to the occasion.  In addition, Rachel is extremely dependable.  Since she began assisting us with our dogs, she has never called to say that she had to cancel.

I recommend Rachel highly to you as a caregiver for your pets.  She has been a great help to us, allowing us to enjoy our dogs, even with the demands of a busy work life!

Sincerely,

Sharon

To Whom It May Concern:

It is my pleasure to provide a reference for Rachel of Rachel’s Pet Sitting.

We hired Rachel about a year ago to care for our Yorkshire terrier/Bichon mix named Buster.  Buster joined our family as a 10 week old puppy.  I was extremely worried about going to work and leaving him alone in the house for the whole day and did a lot of research on pet sitters in order to ensure he had the best care possible while I was gone.

When I first met Rachel, I liked her right away because she had a calm demeanor and got right down to Buster’s level to greet him.  He seemed very comfortable with her.  She also listened to my concerns and was willing to work with me to meet all of Buster’s needs.

In the year that she has worked for us, I have found her to be extremely reliable and trustworthy.  She is also very accommodating with changes in schedule and always returned my phone calls promptly.  Many of my neighbors have told me they have seen her with Buster on long walks around the development.  She always leaves a note about her visit and has phoned me a few times at work when Buster seemed ill or not himself.  When we installed an invisible fence around the property, she worked with Buster and helped me with his fence training. 

I feel she truly cares about animals and is genuinely concerned about their well-being.  Buster and I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter.

Sincerely,

Wendy

To Whom It May Concern:

Rachel provided dog sitting and walking services for my dog Otis in February and March of 2006.  Otis is a very energetic, large, 3 year old Labrador retriever.  Rachel proved to be capable and responsible as well as a good communicator.  During this time, I had no issues with the services she provided.  She was always on time and did a great job keeping me informed of how Otis was feeling and behaving.

I recommend anyone that is looking for a pet sitting/walking service to rely on Rachel for these services.  I was fully satisfied and felt confident that my dog was in the best hands.

Sincerely,

George

To Whom It May Concern:

We have known Rachel for essentially all of her life.  We have observed her strong love of pets, both cats and dogs.  She does not tolerate any abuse of a pet.  She enjoys playing with all pets and caring for them.  She has been our sitter of choice for the care of our dogs over the years.  Regardless of size of the pet, she works with them well.  From the care of a large dog, a Rottweiler, to the care of our current dog, a Fox Terrier, she is good with them all.  She visits them in our home giving them a lot of personal attention, playing with them and exercising them, in addition to providing food and water.  She is extremely reliable and will attend to the pet as scheduled without exception. We would strongly recommend her to sit anyone’s pet.

To Whom It May Concern:

I have known Rachel for years and she has cared for my dogs over those years.  There is no one I would trust with my pets more than Rachel.  She is a very responsible, caring and loving woman.

Rachel has cared for my dog here in my home during our vacations over the years.  Her integrity shows in the condition of my home and the happiness and contentment of my dog when we come home.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
