We like to stick to your pet's routine as best as possible and greatly appreciate written instructions and labels. We like to play with animals or lounge around as well. We each have a 5 year old kiddo and they both adore all their animals buddies. However, I (Liz) share custody, so only have kiddo a few days a week. This means I have evenings/nights that I can dedicate fully to your fur baby. I (Liz) have a bearded dragon and it didn't have that as an option, but I wanted folks to know! ⸻ Hi, I’m Rachel! I share my home with my 3-year-old pitbull terrier—my sweet sidekick. He’s energetic, well-trained, and super friendly, so he’s always happy to welcome new Rover pals into the mix. My love for animals started when I was just 7 years old. My sister and I were surprised with two corgis—a gift inspired by our live-in babysitter at the time, Jessica, who happened to also be a professional dog trainer and sitter. She became a mentor of sorts, teaching me valuable training tips, consistency, and hands-on care not only with my own pups, but also with her clients’ dogs. That early experience gave me a strong foundation and sparked a lifelong passion for caring for animals. I later became a Rover sitter myself and worked with wonderful clients and their pets for 4 years. I truly loved every moment of it—the walks, the cuddles, the goofy playtimes, and of course, building lasting relationships, with both the pets and their humans. I did take a short pause from full-time sitting to focus on my daughter and her big milestones, but I never fully stepped away. A few of my long-time clients still needed me, and of course, I couldn’t say no! To this day, I continue to board, walk, and provide care whenever I’m needed. And now that my kiddo has officially started school, this opens me back up to more pet playtime! Caring for your pets means following your instructions down to the letter, sending daily updates with photos, videos, and little notes on progress and activity, and making sure your animals get all the love, affection, and attention they would if you were home yourself. We provide safe and attentive care, plenty of exercise as needed, and lots of snuggles and playtime in between. Pet sitting doesn’t feel like “work” —it’s something that brings us genuine joy. Knowing that we can give pets the love, safety, and comfort they need while giving owners peace of mind is the best part of what we do. Whether it’s playtime, structured walks, overnight stays, or just extra cuddles, we treat every pet like they’re our own. We can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾
