Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover through and through
Hi, I’m Rachel! I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and love spending time in their company. I know how important it is to give pets not just care, but love, patience, and attention. I have owned my own dogs and cats and have worked with them professionally too, as a dog aquafit specialist in Vancouver. Now, i work from home in Squamish a few days a week, which means I can offer plenty of company, playtime, walks and snuggles. I also have a toddler who is very respectful of animals and loves being around them. Your pet will always feel safe and comfortable in our home. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I’ll treat your furry family member like my own.

Ratings and reviews
Rachel was awesome. She accommodated us last minute while we were visiting from out of province. Super quick to respond and sent lots of lovely updates during the day. We would definitely recommend her.
Rachel was wonderful! I booked last minute and she was very accommodating. She took my pup for a river walk in the morning and played fetch with her in the afternoon. I received lots of lovely photos and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. It makes it so much easier to enjoy your time without your dog, knowing they are being well cared for. My dog was happy and calm at pickup, a sure sign of a fun day with her new friend! Thanks Rachel!
Rachel took wonderful care of Aslan and sent me updates and pictures of him throughout the day. She even washed him after his walk, which I really appreciate. English Cocker Spaniels are quite hard to keep clean. Thank you! 😊
Such an amazing sitter!! Rachel was great at communicating with us before and throughout Mos time with her and her family. Would recommend her to anyone Thanks for taking such good care of our guy ! So nice being able to leave him with someone that we know will take great care of him
Rachel took great care of Yoshi while I was out playing in the mountains. She fell asleep as soon as we got home! Would book with her again.
Rachel was incredible with our pup and kept us updated throughout the day - with super cute pics! 🐶📸

Schedule
Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I’ve always had animals in my life. I’m used to feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of affection throughout the day. Since I work from home a few days a week, I have the flexibility to provide companionship and regular check-ins. On the days I’m not home full time, I still structure my mornings and evenings around pet care, whether that’s longer walks, cuddle time, or keeping up with their routines.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In my home, pets are treated like family. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved by keeping to their normal routines—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet cuddle time. I’m attentive to their needs and always provide plenty of supervision, affection, and stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet feels secure in their own environment. I maintain their regular schedule, give them lots of attention, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
A typical day
I love tailoring activities to each pet’s personality and energy level. For dogs, that might mean neighborhood walks, fetch in the yard, or practicing tricks for extra mental stimulation. For cats, I enjoy interactive play with toys, cozy cuddle time, or just keeping them company in their favorite spots. I also make sure pets get plenty of affection and attention, whether that’s belly rubs, ear scratches, or simply being a calm companion by their side.
