I’m a full time teacher, so I typically take on jobs during the school year where I’m able to drop-in each morning before work and come by again as soon as school gets out around 3. I also can drop-in before bedtime.

Safety, trust & environment

I know how strange and sometimes even scary it can be for a pet when a new person enters their home. My strategy is to first follow the guidance of pet parents on how to approach pets and to always keep a calm and kind demeanor. I've found that pets warm up to me pretty quickly because of this.

Information Rachel B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what types of special needs your dog may have so that I can best accommodate them! I have no breed preferences and am happy to administer medication if needed.

A typical day

I like to take my dog friends on walks in nearby parks. It's more interesting for both of us! I also enjoy throwing frisbee, playing fetch, and playing tug of war. I'm also big on snuggles. Let me know what your doggy enjoys best!

Former Vet Tech & Loving Pet Mom

Pet care experience

My family always had a cat or a dog while I was growing up and they quickly became my best friends. I've learned that life is hollow without a loving pet to snuggle up to and care for. My three cats and German Shepherd are my babies and best friends, so I completely understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to take care of your pets. When I'm not pet-sitting I am a full-time high school biology teacher. My classroom pet is a lovely leopard gecko named Yoshi. No pet is too unique for me to love it.

Rachel was great with our girls Echo and Clementine! She’s friendly, professional, and followed instructions perfectly. Rachel arrived on time for the drop-in, took plenty of pictures, and ensured the girls were tucked into bed nicely. I will absolutely use Rachel again in the future!
