Hi! Thank you for visiting my profile. About me: I’m currently a stay-at-home mom who chose not to go back to a full time marketing position. My love for animals and staying active has led me to Rover. I enjoy the gentleness of kitties, (especially those that like to play), and love to go on long walks with dogs. I am extremely cautious with my clients babies and care for them as I would my own. I always try to teach basic leash manners, and with time and practice, I can turn a dog who is all over the place to a steady, confident, well-mannered dog. I believe in treat/reward training and positive reinforcement is the key to earning their respect. I’ve raised dogs and cats all of my adult life. From kittens, puppies, Pekingese, Pugs, to 95 pound Boxers, you name it, and I’ve probably raised it! I’m an active individual, so I love to be “out and about” and enjoy walks - I can do it all while you are away. If you need help with puppy training, or a kitten house check while you’re at work, I will make sure their needs are met and provide companionship. Aside from animals, I love gardening and decorating my home, so I have many projects on my hands to keep me busy through the day. I have a wonderful husband and a 7-year-old who fills my weekends with joy! If you need housesitting, (watering plants, etc.), while you’re away, I will help and will not charge any fees. You can consider me your “house sitter” the next time you go away!

House was kept clean. Water fountain replenished. Most importantly, my babies appear to be happy and doing well. Rachel does a wonderful job sending many pictures during each visit showing feedings and play time.

Rachel has been fantastic. Great communication, didn’t have trouble giving my cat her pills, and just a lovely person overall. I will certainly be using her again

Rachel is great with my cats! She is attentive, making sure she plays with them, handles administering medications and treats daily. She sends both video and pictures daily - I can tell my babies are at ease and enjoying their time with her. She checks in if she has questions. I feel very comfortable leaving my babies under her care.

Rachel has been a dog lover her whole life. She has owned and cared for big and small dogs. She is conscientious about routine care (shots, grooming, feeding, walks, etc.) but she also loves to treat her dogs like her kids, remembering birthdays, buying new toys, comfy bedding. All of dogs are members of her family! I would trust her to care for any dog!!

Schedule

I am available pretty much all day and into the evening hours. My days are routine and structured, so I would take the same approach with your pets. Unfortunately, I cannot sit overnight.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Rachel can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
If your dog has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of, please let me know. I can administer medication to both cats and dogs, as I do my own. Should your pet tend to have an aggressive personality, or show aggressiveness to other dogs, I will need to know this beforehand if we will be walking.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
