Highlights
Pet care experience
Golden Retriever Mom & Dog Lover 🐾
* 8+ years of pet sitting experience for friends, family, and referrals. * Rocky, my 7-year-old Golden Retriever, is always by my side and has to be apart of the equation. * I work remotely, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. * I only accept pets that are comfortable around large dogs and have a friendly, reliable temperament. Rocky’s safety and well-being as well as any animals I care for are my top priority. * My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind while they’re away

Safety, trust & environment
Trust is everything when it comes to caring for someone’s pets. I’ve been with the same company for 9 years, and I bring that same reliability, integrity, and accountability to every pet I care for. As a Project Manager, I’m highly detail-oriented and comfortable following specific routines, medications, and care instructions. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to learn what helps them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I genuinely love animals and don’t just “watch” pets—I enjoy spending time with them, keeping them engaged, active, and loved while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
First time user of the Rover app and we had Rachel over to our house for 6 days to watch our 2 goldens. It was a perfect match. She brought her Golden with her and they all got along so well. 2 swimming trips to the river and lots of play time at our house. She treated our dogs like they were her own. Lots of daily communication, videos and pictures made us feel at ease with having someone that we barely knew, watch over our house and dogs. There was even a new dog toy and chews left behind for the boys. Do no hesitate to book Rachel for any of your pet sitting needs. We will definitely reach out to her again when the time comes for another booking.
Rachel was great with communication and our dog. She even taught him how to swim in the river nearby. I though my dog was too chicken.
Best pet sitter ever. Rachel cared for our goldens with true joy. She stayed in our home for several weeks and I felt so secure & confident she had it all under control. One of our dogs had some health issues and she was wonderful with him. We got photos of the dogs having a great time, she was so conscientious I sometimes felt they loved her more than us! Don't hesitate to book Rachel, you'll be so glad you did.
Rachel did an amazing job watching my yellow lab, Gus. He got plenty of exercise, and I could tell he was happy and well cared for throughout his stay. Rachel was easy to communicate with, sent lots of updates, and made drop-off and pick-up completely seamless. I would absolutely recommend her as a responsible and loving pet caregiver.
Rachel is my favorite dog sitter that I’ve ever had. She truly takes such great care of my dogs and I think it comes from a place of absolutely loving animals so very much. I always know my dogs are going to get to go on plenty of adventures and have lots of exercise and endless cuddles and great attention. She is so respectful of our home and a great communicator. I will be using Rachel again.
Rachel has watched our dogs in our home several times, and we couldn’t recommend her more. She is reliable, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. She takes our dogs to the park every day, gives them lots of attention, and keeps us updated while we’re away. It’s such a relief knowing they’re so well cared for, and we always come home to happy, relaxed dogs. We won't hesitate to book with her again!

Schedule
I work remotely Monday through Friday, so my day naturally revolves around making sure the pets in my care—including my own—get plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, exercise, and outdoor time. Because every pet is different, I tailor activities to their age, energy level, and individual needs.

- I prefer caring for friendly, socialized pets that are comfortable around other dogs, as Rocky is always part of the equation. A good fit helps create a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. The more details you can share, the better—routines, quirks, medical information, veterinarian and emergency contacts, favorite activities, and anything else that helps me keep your pet happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
