Rachel has pet sat for me several times over the last year. She is reliable and my pups and kitties love her. She treats them as though they are her own. The most relieving thing is that she has a lot of experience in the veterinary field and she is able to confidently administer medications or other treatments if they are needed for your pet. It's also nice to know that if anything were to happen to my pet I can trust her to bring them to a reliable vet in the area. Thanks Rachel, we love you!!! - Kait, Leela, Fry, Nina, Optimus & Bumble Bee <3

Rachel has been petsitting my two dogs for almost two years. She is very good to them and they love their "Aunt Rachel". I would recommend her to anyone, especially because she works as a veterinary technician and has the experience and knowledge to handle any situation that could arise while I am away. I trust her to stay with my girls and find peace of mind knowing she is there to care for them.
