Animal Lover Since Birth

Pet care experience

I am an animal-loving actress who’s lived in NYC for over 11 years! I thrive at freelance work, have extensive experience in babysitting, pet-sitting, and housesitting, and put 100% into everything I do. I am unable to pass an animal on the street (or a child for that matter) without getting the biggest smile on my face. They bring me so much joy. I grew up around pets (dog, cat, turtle, hamster) my whole life and have lived with a cat the last 7 years. I am very patient, loving, and gentle, as well as diligent, responsible, and organized. I know how important your pets are, so I will most definitely keep you as up to date on their activities as possible. I look forward to meeting your most prized possession! Thank you for your time.

I’ve used Rachel for the past couple of years. She’s always reliable and great at communicating. I feel comfortable leaving my dog in good hands!

My new puppy can be pretty uneasy with most new people, but Rachael has that special gift that makes him let his guard down. He loves cuddling with her and really enjoys the time they spend walking around the neighborhood. Rachael is patient, friendly, dependable and exactly what anyone would want in an animal caregiver. She is very highly recommended!!

Rachael is a sweet and attentive caregiver. She provided personalized attention to each of my cats based on their needs. For example, she quickly realized that Bean loves drinking water straight from the faucet and made sure to let him splash around each visit. And she gained the trust of my more timid cat by the second visit, sharing plenty of photos of pets and cuddles. I was gone for 12 days and I think they barely noticed!

Information Rachael S. would like to know about your pet

How friendly they are. If they are prone to biting or jumping. How well trained they are. If they are crate trained or sleep in the bed. What they eat/if they have any allergies. What their favorite activities are!

A typical day

I love love love all parks! St. Nicholas Park, Morningside, Riverside, Central, or whichever one is closest to you! I walk hours at a time on my own anyway, so having your dog along for the journey would be my pleasure. I also am very well-versed in throwing balls and frisbees, as my family dogs are avid fans!
