Local + Work From Home Pet Lover!

Pet care experience

Hi - I'm Rachel. I work remote full time in Logan Circle, DC in Public Relations and I'd be thrilled to spend time with your pets! I primarily petsit through Rover to get extra time with animals of all kinds and personalities - I am a huge pet lover. I know how important it is to trust your petsitter, and strive to always offer consistent, reliable and convenient service at the right price. In addition to having my own friendly 4-year-old White Domestic Shorthair cat, I have pet sat extensively, including drop-ins, walks, boarding and extended overnight housesitting. I grew up in Virginia with many animals, and even loved to foster before I got my own. I am willing to walk or run your animals, host playtime, or just spend some social time with them. I grew up with 2 female golden retrievers and 3 cats, but have dog sat for animals as small as a senior special needs Frenchie, as personality-filled as a pittie mix and as loving as a Boxer puppy. I work remote and take off for lunch so I will be able to meet any of your needs and have a very flexible schedule! I always will make sure to send pictures and keep in touch with updates throughout my time with your pet - I know how important those updates are when you're away from your pet children.

Roger, our 4-month-old Airedale, met Rachel during a “meet and greet.” He connected immediately, wagging his tail and giving kisses – love at first sight.   I don’t think Roger’s reaction was coincidental – Rachel’s love for animals, her friendly demeanor, and her positivity was apparent from the outset.  She was interested in learning as much as possible about Roger – his temperament, likes and dislikes, successes to date, and “puppyhood” challenges he was experiencing, and a summary of any training he had received.  So, from the outset, we felt extremely comfortable with Rachel – more than comfortable actually… we looked forward to her taking care of Roger during our short or longer absences.    Our assessment proved accurate!  Rachel’s subsequent visit with Roger went extremely well.  We were very happy to see the pictures she sent that documented her time with him, and a narrative summary of their visit.   Most important, she is our definite “go to” person for dog sitting.  And if Roger could speak (which he may be able to do at some point – he is really smart!), I know his evaluation would be glowing!
 Thank you, Rahel!  We are looking forward to a great partnership!

Rachel was so easy to book with ! She sent lots of updates and gave my pup exactly what she needed. Biscotti honestly had a great time and was even sad to leave Rachel. Highly recommend
