Hi! Thank you for visiting my profile! A Little About Me: I’m currently a stay-at-home mom who chose not to return to a full-time marketing position. My love for animals, coupled with the importance of staying active, led me to Rover—and I couldn’t be happier to be doing something I truly enjoy! I live in northern Woodruff, and I service both the Spartanburg and Greenville areas. I consider Woodruff along with the surrounding towns my specialty. If you live near me, it’s an added bonus if you ever need me to check in on your pet outside of their scheduled visits—or even keep an eye on your home while you’re away. People tend to forget to turn things off before they leave! I especially enjoy the gentleness of kitties, particularly the playful ones, and I love going on long walks with dogs. I’m extremely cautious and attentive with my clients’ fur babies and care for them as I would my own. I also enjoy working on basic leash manners. With time, patience, and practice, I’ve found that even a dog who is all over the place can become a steadier, more confident, well-mannered companion. I believe in treat-based training and positive reinforcement as the key to building trust, respect, and a strong bond. I’ve raised dogs and cats all of my adult life. I grew up in a home that always had at least four cats, so animals have always been a big part of my life. From kittens and puppies to Pekingese, Pugs, and 95-pound Boxers—you name it, and I’ve probably raised it! I’m an active person who loves being out and about, especially when it involves a walk. While you’re away, I can help with whatever your pet needs. Whether you need help with puppy training, a long walk, a play session, or simply a house check while you’re at work, I’ll make sure your pet’s needs are met and that they receive plenty of attention and companionship. Aside from animals, I love gardening, painting, and decorating my home, so I always have plenty of projects to keep me busy. I have a wonderful husband and a 7-year-old who fills my weekends with joy! I’m also happy to help with simple house-sitting tasks while you’re away, such as watering plants or keeping an eye on things. I don’t charge an extra fee for these little things. You can consider me your “house sitter” the next time you go away! I have a pet sitter I routinely call on myself, so I know firsthand what it feels like to come home from the airport and realize someone truly went the extra mile for your pets. That’s exactly the kind of care I want to provide for you and your fur babies. 🩷

Rachel is such an amazing dog walker/pet sitter. I have noticed a huge difference in my dog’s behavior and energy since booking with her. She is very attentive, responds quickly, and gets along well with shy animals. I really can’t recommend her enough.

Rachel is great with my cats! She takes the time to play with them, in addition to feedings, litter clean up and medications. She even took extra time to secure some of my belongings that had gotten blown over on my balcony after a bad storm. I can always count on at least a dozen fun pictures of my babies playing around, getting treats, etc. I feel so comfortable knowing my cats are well cared for while I’m away!

She did a great job getting to know our pup and his routines with a meet and greet prior to the first walking. She was communicative throughout and on time. She did a great job with him.

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.
