I have a very flexible work schedule and write my own hours so am available for almost any time of day or night. Taking care of animals is my relaxation, so I would love to be able to do it with my down time.

I have a spacious two bedroom two bathroom space that is already animal proofed for my 4 resident cats. Our guest bedroom provides plenty of space for a dog or cat who might like to be alone, and my cats love visitors of all kinds!

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of animals as long as I can remember. Dogs, cats, fish, turtles, I love them all! I’ve rescued 8 animals in total in my life so far, including a few hospice cases, and always love caring for all creatures, great and small.

Another great experience with Rachael. She is an excellent sitter - she took care of my toy poodle for 5 nights in my condo. She sends photo and video updates and is very clean. Highly recommend Rachael and will be using her again!

I cannot recommend Rachael more - she is so great with our beagle and treats her like her own (and Ida may prefer her sometimes!!). Rachael is our go to dog sitter and we are so grateful for all that she does.

Rachael was the perfect dog sitter for our dog Dewey! She gave him tons of love and walks even in the snow. He was happy as could be with her watching him!

Rachael took such great care of my pup (and my house)! She had great communication and my dog immediately loved her. I’m sure he can’t wait until she can stay with him again
