Availability
In Seattle, I am available on Fridays and weekends. Once I move to Portland, my schedule is wide open for animal care. However, I may need to add some restrictions as I get settled into my new home and look at other work to supplement my income. I will be sure to update my schedule as appropriate. Feel free to communicate with me as your needs change as well!

About Rachel G.

Safety, trust & environment
So much of my care is based on the animal themselves. My cat Betty is super playful and affectionate, so I make sure to schedule out play time for us every day. Some animals just want affection and cuddles, which I'm also happy to provide. Some of my more aloof customers prefer to be left alone, and I always respect their space. My number one priority for all animals is that they are comfortable and safe during my time with them.
Information Rachel G. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your animal has any special needs for their care, such as medications. Please also ensure that I have a list of any emergency contacts as needed. Additional information that would be helpful: If your pet ever tries to run out doors/escape, if your pet ever has play aggression, if your pet does not react well to other animals being nearby.
A typical day
My cat is all about play, play, and more play! I'm very experienced with playtime with both cats and dogs. I'll make sure to keep your little one entertained, and I'm happy to take pictures or videos to send you! If your little one is on the shy-er side, I'll shift focus to just being a friendly face for them and giving them the care they need from afar.

Pet care experience
I've been passionate about animal care ever since I started my first pet-sitting business at 15. I still remember my first clients: A family with an older cat and a family with two pomeranian puppies. While I love dogs and can take care of them, my specialty is feline friends! I absolutely love cats in all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I'm there if your cat wants a long-term babysitter relationship or just a friendly person to fill the bowl and respect their need for personal space. I'm so excited to be getting back into the animal care business in Portland, Oregon! I'll be available for work after July 30th, 2024. Feel free to contact me any time if you think we may be a good match!

Reviews
Rachel was amazing, and took such good care of our cats. We appreciated the daily photo's of them, and knowing that they were looked after made our trip so much more enjoyable. Thank you so much!
Very good communicator and went over and above what I asked of her! She even made my kitties some toys that they loved! Will definitely be hiring Rachel again!
Rachel was an amazing sitter for my cats! She was very trustworthy, she followed all the instructions that we provided for her, left our home clean and tidy, and our cats were well taken-care-of. Not much more I could ask for from a sitter! I highly recommend her and would definitely use her services again.
Rachel has watched our family dog named Bruce on a couple of occasions. She is great with him and I feel comfortable leaving him in her care. Bruce liked hanging out with Rachel and I believe she did too! I wouldn’t hesitate to utilize Rachel’s services in the future.
