I can’t say enough about Rachel’s work with my Yorkie, Sophie. She was friendly, kind, knowledgeable and reassuring in teaching Sophie how to swim. It’s easy to tell that Rachel really enjoys her work, and I was thrilled at how quickly she was able to get Sophie swimming with confidence! Rachel was always quick to respond to my texts, and on time for our lessons. I highly recommend Rachel and Dip’n Dogs Canine Hydrotherapy!!!!!

Rachel is amazing! Fiona suffers from luxating patellas in both legs and is not ready for surgery (yet) so my vet recommended hydrotherapy for less stress on her joints and weight loss. Fiona is terrified of new people and within 3 visits with Rachel she was in the pool on her own! Rachel is kind, patient, and understanding of rescue dogs and what they may have been through. I haven’t seen Fiona have the “zoomies” since she was 7-8 months old and now she has the “zoomies” again and has gained so much energy and can run and play so much more! I highly suggest Rachel at Dip n Dogs! Thank you Rachel for bringing Fiona back to life!

Dip N Dogs eased my aussie’s anxiety when it came into jumping in the pool! Such an affordable rate for the experience that Rachel has to offer. Can’t wait for another swim!

Rachel is so amazing at what she does! My dog Hazel was recovering from leg surgery and I brought her to Rachel for hydrotherapy to strengthen her leg.
Now both of my dogs go to her for athletic swimming to stay in shape during the hot summer! I highly recommend bringing your pup to Rachel. Swimming is so amazing for dogs! If they are not comfortable in the water, she will spend time with them to make sure they build the confidence they need.
