I can't wait to meet your pets!

Pet care experience

Cats! Whether they're ruling Instagram or ruling your home, each cat is special! I grew up feeding, brushing, and cleaning up after all kinds of cats, from kittenhood to their golden years! Shy cats, spunky cats, thin and fat - I've cuddled them all. I currently live with a sweet orange kitty and promise to show your fur babies all the love I show him. Let me know about your cat's personality so I can be a great companion and keep them happy! Dogs! What could be better than your dogs greeting you at the door when you get home from a night out? Well, I'll make sure they're walked and brushed by the time they do! My family has had dogs of all shapes and sizes, from chihuahuas to French bulldogs to rescue pitbulls! An experienced dog walker and sitter, I love spending time with man's best friend! Please let me know where you dog enjoys going on walks, if he/she is comfortable around other dogs, and what kind of treats you like to give. There's also a great dog park near my house for anyone who lives locally! If you'd like your pup to socialize with other pups, I'm more than happy to take them there! Birds! Who doesn't love birds? Most of my experience is with Budgies and parrots, but I'm happy to take care of any fine feathered friend! I also pet sit for guinea pigs, hamsters, and rats. No reptiles please. If you want updates or pictures of your pet while you're away, all you have to do is ask! I can also stop by before the arranged time to go over any additional details you'd like for me to know, and I'll always be available by call or text!

Rachel did a wonderful job taking care of my dog while I was out of town! She sent lots of updates and made sure that my dog was very happy while I was gone.

Rachel did a great job, she sent lots of pictures and video of Ollie while I was away and he seemed very happy. She followed instructions well, especially when it came to giving him his medicine. Will definitely book her again next time I leave town.

Rachel did a good job of watching my cat when I was out of town. His food bowl/water bowl were always filled. Great at keeping the animals company.

Rachel and I have been friends for years, and she’s one of the kindest people I know. When I got my first dog, Mochi, over the summer, she immediately embraced the role of “Dog Auntie”. She came to training classes with us, took her on walks, and accepted many doggy kisses. She’s been a huge help through many of Mochi’s firsts: her first metro ride, her first street fair, and her first charity walk (which she invited us to, and we thoroughly enjoyed it!)

Information Rachel D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dog's likes and dislikes, especially if there's a place they love to visit or to avoid on walks. I would also love to know a little about your pet's personality, so I can make my visit as comfortable for them as possible. If your pet has any special needs or medical conditions, please let me know and provide the veterinarian's number in case of emergencies.

A typical day

Whether it's a quick trip around the block or an hour playing fetch in the park, I'm happy to give your dog all the time outdoors that it needs! I also love to help dogs practice any tricks or skills they've learned.
