Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, caring & experienced.
I have many years of experience caring for both dogs & cats. Everything from walking, playing, giving praise & comfort to specialized cooked meal preparation, administering medications, & crating. I’ve pretty much done it all with my own beloved pets & with others pets who I’ve helped care for. I’m especially experienced with geriatric animal care, diabetic care, amputees & animals on regular special diets. I’d be happy to help your pet at any stage of life! I love cooking for dogs. I am also a cat food mix master :) I also have some limited experience with reptiles & amphibians. In addition to our 2 cats, my family also has a corn snake & a White’s tree frog. I am also available for basic dog training. I can help you with dog training. Everything from basic commands to more advanced commands like hand signaling.

Ratings and reviews
Fiona is always so well cared for I never have to worry when I go away as long as Rachael is taking care of her. I will come back to Rachael again and again (and I have!). Always takes fantastic care and is constantly communicating. Couldn’t ask for anyone better.
Rachael was awesome! From first meeting Rachael (and having a butterfly land her, which felt like a sign), we had a good feeling about leaving our two pups in her care. When it came time for the stay, our dogs loved her (even our shy/stand-offish one), and we came back to a neat house. Wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again. Thank you so much for taking great care of our pups!
Rachael is so dependable and trustworthy! She helps us all the time! Our pet loves her!
Rachael was terrific! Prompt, communicative and so patient with our scary cat. Will definitely call on her again next time we need cat care!
Rachael has been a great dog walker... She gets Opie's stubborn tendencies and seems to have fun with him which is great for both of them! I appreciate her help!
Great pet sitter! Goes above and beyond spending time with my cats while I’m away.

Schedule
I’m starting fresh every morning on demand from my 2 discerning cats who wait not-so-patiently for their first meal & after that I’m good to go!!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsRachael can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- Let me know any special needs your dog has, any special dietary needs, medications, injuries to watch out for, anxieties, or fears that could spook your dog on a walk. Also if they are a runner! Does your dog have a bite history? With humans, children, or pets. Because of injuries I have, if your dog is of a higher weight, I need to know if they pull, tug, or will startle & run on the leash. But most importantly, please show me their favorite toy, blanket, or comfort item :)
