Former Animal Shelter Employee
Pet care experience
I worked at a Non-Profit Animal Shelter. I cared for cats and dogs by feeding, providing medications, and socializing them. I treated all the dogs and cats like they were my own pets, giving them affection and encouragement as well as documenting any behavior or health problems. I have experience with varying temperaments, health issues, ages, sizes, and breeds. I have received dog walking training and have been professionally petsitting and walking dogs for five years. I've even cared for exotic pets. Prior to working at the animal shelter, I volunteered many hours at a humane society. I also fostered many kittens in my home. I grew up with cats and dogs. My work and volunteer experience have given me the knowledge and skills to care for all types of animals.
Reviews
Excellent. If I could give Rachel 10 stars it would still not be enough! She communicated with us. Sent pictures everyday. It was very clear to us that she cared deeply about our little dog trio which was very comforting to us. Our flight home was delayed 24 hours and she readily agreed to stay with our furry babies until we could get home. Thank you so much Rachel! ❤️
Rachel was excellent. Will definitely use again!!
Rachel, is amazing and our go to for watching all our babies ;) she goes above and beyond.
Rachel is superb. She responded to all of my messages incredibly quickly, always provided the answers to any questions I had, and kept me completely informed as to my cat's welfare while I was on vacation. She has a very caring nature, and a calm demeanor. I was able to enjoy my vacation, being fully present in every moment (not worrying about my beloved cat) and that, to me, was priceless.
