Information Rachel C. would like to know about your pet

I watch pets of any breed, size, and age. I closely watch they are comfortable and compatible. My pets are very friendly but I make sure they are safe.

A typical day

I usually feed 2 x daily for boarding. I will provide more if the pet has special dietary needs or a different schedule. I provide playtime outside and inside. I offer shade and fresh water outside in my fenced backyard. I enjoy getting to know your pets and giving them special attention and cuddling on the couch. I have pet beds and other areas for them to relax.

Experienced dog care

Pet care experience

Experience: I joined the Army at 19 and became a veterinary technician. I went on to become a Social Worker but currently I am taking a step back to stay home. Throughout the years I have also been a pet owner, kennel worker, stray facility manager, and foster home for strays. I can administer medication, clip nails, clean ears, and handle the most difficult of pets. I have consistently gained the trust of timid, feral, stray, and abused animals. I have assisted in the care and evacuation of pets during hurricane Katrina. I have handled various medical issues and provided care after surgeries. Your pet will get a lot of love and attention. I don't have the prettiest house or perfectly manicured lawn but I provide a warm and down to earth environment for your babies and I stay home daily. I truly love what I do now and the connection I have with animals and helping them adjust, gain trust, and feel comfortable and cared for in a new environment. I have been watching pets full time out of my home since 2024 and part time the past 5 years. I watch multiple dogs/cats daily. Holidays and weekends are busier. I prefer you to bring your pet and their food only. With multiple dogs other items can get soiled or damaged. I have a lot of clean bedding, bowls, kennels if needed.

Rachel was super professional and took great care of Arko (a super picky GSD), she was very proactive in her communications and always kept us informed. Highly recommend her and thank-you for taking care of Arko.

Exceptional Care for My Big Pups! "I cannot recommend Rachel highly enough! She recently watched my large Labrador Retrievers, and she was absolutely wonderful with them. Taking care of multiple big, energetic dogs is no small feat, but she handled it with total ease and confidence. The daily communication was incredible—she sent regular updates and plenty of pictures, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I could tell from the photos just how comfortable and happy they were with her. They came home happy, healthy, and completely relaxed. It is such a relief to find someone I can trust completely with my beloved dogs. If you are looking for a reliable, communicative, and truly caring pet sitter, Rachel is the absolute best!"

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.
