The Team
Hi, I’m Rachael and I’m a massive dog lover having been around and grown up with dogs all my life.
I started my early career in the aerospace industry and then spent over 15 years working in the head offices of some of the fashion industries biggest high street brands.
I founded the business in August 2022 having spent 7 months working at the UK’s leading doggy day care in Cobham.
I have studied for a professional dog walking certificate and have completed various canine training courses whilst working at doggy day care. I am also canine first aid trained.
I am extremely interested in canine behaviour, I find it fascinating! Being able to read a dogs body language and general behaviour is something I feel is very important when caring for & communicating with dogs.
Hi, I’m Kirsten and I joined Rachael’s Rovers in June 2024.
For the 2 years previous I was working at a doggy day care in Cobham, which is where I met Rachael. Prior to that I was working in a London doggy day care for just over a year.
I have undertaken a variety of different canine training courses whilst working at both doggy day cares.
I own a rescue dog called Bonnie, who is around 3 years old and is often with me on my group walks.
I have a vast interest in canine nutrition and spend a lot of time reading up and researching this topic, especially now I have my own dog to care for.
I really believe that dogs very much ‘are what they eat’ and if they eat high quality food, there’s a better chance they will enjoy a long and healthy life, just like we humans!
Caring for the safety of your dog & the planet too…
Fully Electric Vehicles…
The vehicles we use to transport your dogs are fully electric.
We are all about taking those vital steps towards reducing carbon dioxide emissions and improving air quality in our local areas.
They are also much quieter for the dogs and we don’t have exhaust fumes coming back inside the vehicle.
