Highlights
Pet care experience
Looking to love on your pets :)
Dog owner since I was 8, cat owner from age 12. Until just recently had both in my life (my dog Luna has since passed, but can’t bring myself to remove her profile just yet), and both cats and dogs bring me so much joy. Moved back to Seattle after grad school and not yet ready to commit to another furbaby of my own, so looking to fill my spare time caring and loving for yours!

Safety, trust & environment
For larger breeds or more than 1 dog I am only able to accommodate sitting at the owner’s house due to my home being a bit more on the smaller side. For small breeds I currently live in a single-story house (no stairs) with an unfenced front yard on a relatively quiet street with a small community park at the end.
Ratings and reviews
Rachael has watched our pup a handful of times now, and each time she’s been great! Would highly recommend!
Rachael has taken care of my cat several times and done a wonderful job. I have an anxious older cat and yet she is comfortable with Rachael. If Rachael is looking after my cat, I do not worry and that is priceless to me.
We’ve worked with Rachael more than once, and she has been absolutely wonderful! She took exceptional care of both our cat and dog, and they seemed happy, healthy, and well cared for when we returned home. She was also incredibly helpful and proactive when our dog had an ear infection came up with while we were away. We were out of service and unreachable for quite some time during our trip, so we especially appreciated her taking the initiative to reach out to our vet. She kept us informed whenever possible, administered the necessary medication, and helped our dog’s condition improve. That was huge and gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. We’re incredibly grateful for the care, attention, judgment, and reliability she provided. Five stars all around! We would absolutely trust her with our pets again!
Our dog is very difficult but he warms to Rachael right away! We worry when we go away but Rachael gives us peace of mind. She clearly loves and understands animals. She's very tuned in and attentive and we appreciate her so much!
Rachael has watched our border collie twice now, and we highly recommend her! She takes great care of our pup, taking her to different parks and areas around town. She’s very communicative and sends lots of adorable pictures where our dog looks so happy and well socialized while we’re away. Rachael has also always left our house very clean. It’s so nice being able to leave town knowing our dog is in good hands!
Rachael is a fantastic sitter and took wonderful care of our two dogs when we were away for a week. She's a great communicator and we always knew our pups were in good hands. We'll definitely reach out to her again.
