Rachel McGinnis (Dogs/Cats)

Hi there! I’m Rachel, certified Pet Nutrition Coach, lifelong pet-store kid, and proud pet parent to four healthy dogs.

My journey started at age 6, standing on a milk crate in my parents’ pet store helping customers. In 2008, my husband and I opened our own successful pet stores in Florida, and I’ve spent every day since helping pet parents make smarter nutrition decisions.

In 2019, I began using 5Strands Pet Intolerance Kits to support pets with skin issues, digestive struggles, and food sensitivities. In 2022, I earned my Pet Nutrition Certification to deepen my expertise and serve pets even better.

I test my own dogs regularly and stay committed to ongoing nutrition education, so you get guidance backed by experience and real results.

If you feel overwhelmed by pet food choices or sensitivities and want clear, confident support, you’re in the right place. Let’s give your pet the healthy life they deserve.
