Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure pets feel comfortable with me as soon as I arrive. If they’re a little skittish, no problem at all—I totally understand! I have a very timid dog myself, so I’m especially experienced with pets who need a little extra patience and care. When I adopted my dog, it didn’t take long at all to help her feel safe and at ease with me.

Information Rachel E. would like to know about your pet

Feel free to let me know if your pet is timid or has any medical needs. Don’t hesitate to be as specific as you need—especially if they have a set routine. You and your pet are my top priority!

A typical day

For drop-in visits, I make sure to give your pets plenty of love and attention! If they enjoy playing, I’ll throw toys or play fetch with them. But most of the time, dogs just want someone there to help them feel safe. They usually curl up on my lap and nap—and yes, even the bigger dogs try to squeeze in!

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Rachel! 🐾 I’m 25 and have been surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and more for as long as I can remember. Animals have always been my happy place. I grew up loving every pet I had, especially my sweet dog who was with me from age 11 to 22 and passed away right before Christmas 2023. Because of that bond, I truly understand how deeply we love our pets and how important it is to find someone you can trust with them. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals: *great with skittish/nervous animals* (specializes) 🐶 Dogs from 5 lbs to 120 lbs 🐱 Cats (from shy kittens to seniors needing thyroid meds) 🐭 Rodents I am more than comfortable caring for farm animals too! 🐎🐔 I currently do this full-time while working from home, and I also volunteer at the HELP Humane Cat Shelter when I can. I feel incredibly lucky to get to call this my job. Every dog and cat I care for gets my full attention and affection; I treat them like my own. What You Can Expect from Me: Tons of photos and behavior updates during every visit Clean up eye boogers, bring in packages, and make sure your home stays secure Focused attention (I set a timer and limit phone use during drop-ins) Your pet’s comfort and routine are my top priority A little special gift: A digitally drawn portrait of your pet - longer visits! 🎨🐾 Policies & Notes: 🛑 No cameras for house sits ✅ Cameras are totally fine for drop-ins, just show me where they are during the meet & greet! 🚫 No guests/people allowed in your home while I’m working (for safety reasons, though I will accept under certain circumstances!) ✅ Very flexible cancellation policy - message me and I’ll take care of a full refund if plans change 🤝 Meet & greets are preferred, but if you're in a time crunch, just send me photos and care instructions! 🐕‍🦺 Do not offer dog walks during Drop-ins, that's another service! I want you to be 100% confident that your pets and home are in safe, loving hands while you're away. I know how much trust that takes, and I don’t take it lightly. I’ll always go above and beyond to make your pets feel safe, seen, and loved. ❤️ Let me know if you’d like to set up a meet & greet! I can’t wait to meet your furry (or scaly!) friends. Booking with me you agree to a 30 min grace period - this is for if I get stuck in traffic/other factors that may make me a bit late! I do try and get there 5 - 10mins before the drop-in is supposed to start but sometimes traffic / accidents decided differently. you will be updated if that happens!

Rachel took great care of our 3 dogs (2 that are senior). She reached out with any questions, and we appreciated her being so interactive with the dogs AND us! Seeing the pictures and watching her interact outside with them gave us the ability to relax while away and not worry about them. When the need arises again, Rachel will be our first call.

Rachel did an amazing job. She went above and beyond taking care of Millie. We have been hesitant to vacation because she doesn't love being boarded. But Rachel was always on time and sent cute pics of her every time she visited. We won't hesitate to use her again next time we need to leave because she made both Millie and us feel much more at ease. Thanks, Rachel!

Rachel was great! She provided great reports and our cat seemed to enjoy her visits. She did more than she needed to.

Rachel happily came over for a meet and greet with my cats. My timid cat, Trixie, went to Rachel after a little coaxing and let Rachel touch her. Very unusual! I got updates with photos and notes about her visits with my girls. I have cameras in my home so I can check on the girls. I was pleased to see Rachel playing with them as part of her visit. It was a good experience. I will book with Rachel again!
