Hi! I'm Rachel...

Dogs (and cats!) have always been my happy place, and a huge part of my life, so I’m very excited to finally turn my passion into something more. After years in the Real Estate Law corporate world, I realized my heart wasn’t in the office— I belonged outside.. exploring trails, getting fresh air, and spending time with happy pups! 

With hands-on experience handling dogs of all sizes, as well as a full police check and verification for your peace of mind, I’m here to make sure your dog feels loved, exercised, and cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, a bit of extra playtime, or companionship while you’re out, Canine Jaunts has you covered!

We are so happy we found Rachel & the Canine Jaunts Crew! Rachel has been so amazing with our puppy & helping him grow and learn ! Rachel always clearly communicates and provides updates after each visit with the cutest photos! In the past we had such a negative experience with a dog walker , we didn’t know it could be this amazing and stress free ! I know with confidence my dog is being taken care of well and happy as could be on his jaunts ! The photos show our pup is clearly having fun , it’s more than just a walk - it’s an adventure ! Rachel is awesome at problem solving and willing to adjust as needed, which happens from time to time with a puppy ! It is so clear Rachel cares and loves our pet like it is her own. Thank you for making our work days stress free and keeping puppy happy , safe & exercised !! Lagers loves you Auntie Rachel

Canine Jaunts has been amazing! Rachel is awesome — professional, friendly, and clearly loves what she does. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited for walks. I feel completely confident knowing my dog is in great hands. I would 100% recommend Canine Jaunts to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walking service.

Highly Recommend! I hired Rachel from Canine Jaunts to help me out occasionally with my pup, Beans, as I do shift work and can sometimes use the extra help! I'm so happy I made the decision. Her intake form ensured that she knew everything about Beans. We then had a quick meet and greet which put me even more at ease as Beans was obsessed with Rachel. On the days they go for walks, I am always sent multiple photos of Beans living her best life. It's nice to know she is so well loved while I'm at work .

The return to office grind had me very stressed out about my dog being all lonely at home for long days. After some research & community recommendations, I'm so glad I came across Rachel. I highly recommend Canine Jaunts. Rachel and Nancy are kind, trustworthy, and patient with my particularly nervous and very tiny senior dog. I love receiving photo updates and information about how the walk went/how my dog interacted with things. It's really clear that they care about the dogs they walk, and want every interaction to be a super positive one. So so glad I found Canine Jaunts! I love the peace of mind knowing there's a walk with friendly folks to enrich my dog's day.

We are so happy we found Canine Jaunts! Rachel treats our pup like one of her own, she takes care in the small details of what your pup likes and dislikes. We love her updates and pics of Poncho as well. Our Poncho is always a happy and tired pup after Rachel has walked him. A true and trusted professional ❤️

We were recently referred to Canine Jaunts and have used them a few times now to look after our kitty while were away. Our cat’s an older girl and putting her in the kennel’s hard on her, so we’re really grateful to have Rachel come to our home. Rachel sends us photos and updates so we know that our little girl’s doing well and all her needs are being looked after. We’ve had a great experience so far!

We’ve been using Canine Jaunts to check in on our puppy when we’re both at work, and it’s been such a relief. Rachel always sends wonderful photos and videos during her visits and that alone is worth every penny! She’s reliable, easy to coordinate with, and her communication is excellent. It’s clear she cares about our pup, and we always feel confident knowing she’s in good hands. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Rachel is absolutely amazing! You can truly tell she loves what she does, and she cares so much about your fur baby. My dog developed some separation anxiety, and we have Rachel coming for a walk with him and he has loved every second of it he forgets I’m even gone! she is so communicative, and you get a photoshoot of your child after every walk. I love it! I very much recommended Rachel from Canine Jaunts!!
