Pet care experience
I have taken care of dogs for the past 13 years and have served as a reliable person to walk, feed, and play with family & friends' dogs when they are away! Additionally, I have a cat of my own and have become very well accustomed to both cat and dog behaviors. Lastly, I have experience with several other pets such as guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, ferrets, rabbits, and fish.
Reviews
Rachael made stops during my wedding weekend to check on our cat and she was simply amazing. She gave great updates making us feel confident that our cat was safe, healthy, and getting some good company during our very busy weekend. If you need a pet sitter in Rachael’s vicinity, she is the best candidate. We are so grateful!
Rachael has been helping us feed and change the bedding for our guinea pigs while we're away. She's reliable and communicative, and our pigs have always been happy in her care!
Rachael went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were taken care of. I really appreciated her level of communication sending pictures and updates during her visits. Rachael can sit my cats anytime.
Rachael was great! She was very communicative and from the pictures she included in her reports, our sweet boy loved her too! Would definitely book her again!

Safety, trust & environment
I have experience walking and taking care of small, medium and large dogs. I can definitely have your animal return to a crate if desired, or make sure they are all set up to hang around your house for the rest of the day! As for cats, I only have experience working with indoor cats, but can definitely learn the ropes if your cat enjoys going outside as well.
Information Rachael V. would like to know about your pet
Good things to know would be whether or not they walk well on a leash (I.e. should I make sure they are on a short leash or can they have a little more freedom?). Also, it would be important to know any triggers that I should avoid!
A typical day
I will make sure that we go for a nice long walk and follow the dog’s lead. I also love playing indoors if they prefer games of tug of war or have a favorite toy.

Availability
I am currently a medical school student, so usually weekends work the best for me, but I can also stop by on evenings to help out if needed!
