Availability

I am currently working part-time so have a lot of availability for drop bys and dog walking. Eventually I’d like to do some house/pet sitting. I have a toddler, so would need to know if she was allowed (or safe) to join me on a visit or walk.

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow the directions for each pet carefully. I appreciate all extra instructions and details. If your cat needs coaxing or specific treats, tell me! If your dog must walk on the right side or is afraid of ladybugs, tell me! I will accommodate. I am very patient, calm, and welcoming.

Information Rachael W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any medical conditions, vet info, what their usual temperament and behavior is, how they like to have fun, what tricks they know, how they like to relax…I appreciate knowing as much info as you are willing to provide so I can tailor the experience for your pet.

A typical day

I like to do the activities recommended by the pet parents. Definitely going for walks, going to a dog park (if recommended), playing with toys, playing fetch, giving treats, giving pets, doing tricks (if the parent has mentioned any), and cuddles/scratchies are things I’d do with pets.

Pet care experience

I grew up with cats and dogs. I currently own a dog and have enjoyed the training process (I’m a teacher by trade). I’m home most days, so I get to spend a lot of time with him! I’m very patient, caring, and have great attention to detail. I want to make your pet feel comfortable and happy while you are away, just like I’d want my Chimi to feel.

Evangeline is my baby! I’m so happy to have found someone that I feel comfortable having in my home and more importantly that I trust with Evangeline’s care. Evangeline loves all of the attention and Rachel gave her lots of time, pats, and love. Will use again. Thank you!!!

Rachael is very reliable and our dogs are able to get a good walk when I can't walk them.

She takes such good care of Gimli, like it’s her own pet. I can’t recommend her enough.

We couldn’t be happier with the care Rachael provided for our two felines. They are usually very hesitant around new people and prefer to hide, but Rachael’s patience and dedication quickly won them over. After only a few visits, they were literally eating from her hand. Rachael was thorough and consistent in her care, sending prompt daily recaps that included a checklist of each visit—food, litter, playtime, etc.—and thoughtful photos. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and her updates gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It’s evident that Rachael treats pet sitting as a profession, not a side job. We felt completely confident leaving our pets in her care and will absolutely be using her again for future trips.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
