Availability

I work 100% remote, which means my commute is basically from the bed to the laptop—with plenty of time for tail wags and treat breaks in between! I’m available to swing by your home in the morning, afternoon, and evening for belly rubs, potty breaks, and everything in between. I’m also around most weekends and holidays, because fur-babies don’t take days off from being adorable—and neither do I! Please note: If I need to pick up a physical key outside of the Meet & Greet, there is a $10 pickup fee. If I also need to return the key after the booking, there is a $10 drop-off fee.

Safety, trust & environment

During our meet and greet, we’ll make sure you, your family, and your fur-babies all feel totally comfy with me—whether that means a tail wag, a curious sniff, or a full-on cuddle test (I happily accept all forms of approval). I follow your instructions to a T—if Fluffy needs her tuna flaked just right or Max prefers his belly rubs counter-clockwise, I’ve got it covered! You’ll also get plenty of photo updates and messages, so you can see all the cuteness happening while you're away.

Information Rachel C. would like to know about your pet

I welcome all animals—big, small, sassy, shy, or downright quirky! The more I know about your fur-baby’s unique habits and preferences ahead of time, the better I can make their experience!

A typical day

I believe every fur-baby deserves a good mix of brain workouts and zoomies! Mental and physical stimulation is super important, and I love finding fun ways to keep those tails wagging and whiskers twitching. Some furballs love food puzzles and treat hide-and-seek, while others are all about the sniffari adventures (aka sniffing every single blade of grass). And of course, I’m always down for a good cuddle session afterwards—because play hard, snuggle harder, right?

Love Spicy Dogs & Cats!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’ve been head-over-paws in love with animals for as long as I can remember. From cuddly kittens to spicy pups with a little extra sass, I’ve shared my life with a whole zoo’s worth of furry (and sometimes feisty) friends. Over the years, I’ve volunteered with animal rescues, trained with professional trainers, and picked up vet tech tips so I can give meds like a pro—whether it's a sneaky pill-in-peanut-butter trick or a quick little poke (yes, I do injections too!). At home, I cohabitate with a 130 lb “big feelings” dog who thinks she's a lapdog, and three cats who are probably plotting world domination. I’ve also been the go-to pet and house sitter for friends and family for years. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies (and spoil them just a little)!

I have had Rachel cat sit several times. She is wonderful! She meets my shy cat where she is and wins her over every time! I will continue to book with Rachel!

Rachel did a fabulous job of caring for our kitties while we were gone. She is, by far, the best cat sitter we have ever had!

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.
