Uniquely Qualified

Pet care experience

While I have the love for animals, as do all sitters. I am uniquely qualified due to my 20 plus years as a Veterinary Technician. I am well versed with pets that have special needs due to chronic illness and/or disabilities. Pets that may need treatment or medication at home is well within my wheel house. I am very compassionate, patient and driven to provide excellent care in a clinic setting and house sitting workplace as well

Rachael did well with my shy Lilikoi. She came out and didn't hide the entire time I was gone which she has been known to do. She looked more comfortable during her times alone between visits, playing and zooming around when normally she just pouts under the bed that I am gone.

Rachel is a wonderful pet sitter! I met her at the veterinary clinic. I take my pups to. She has worked there for several years and is very knowledgeable with animal health and behavior. She is pleasant efficient and loving towards my pups. She treats my house with respect And often does extra things while she is pet sitting. My dogs love her! She is an expert at giving meds and any additional pet care needs since she is a veterinary technician. I never worry when I leave my pups with her! I highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm uniquely qualified due to my vast practical knowledge in veterinary medicine and animal behavior and my goal is to make their time away from you as enjoyable and anxiety free for you and your pets as possible. Your pets are never left unsupervised. I always provide excellent care to the best of my ability and provide a safe and loving environment.

Information Rachael S. would like to know about your pet

If your pets need any special care please let me know so I can accommodate them. If your pet has any behavioral quirks or fears please make me aware so I can work with them.

A typical day

A typical day would be a schedule that they are comfortable with and used to. Typically it starts with potty break, food and meds if needed. Then we move on to the activity they most like. Whether that is walks, going to the park or just playtime. Routine is key.
