Animals are my passion!

Pet care experience

Hi guys! My name is Rachel, animals are my life! I grew up on a farm so I've had pets since I was child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. Living on a farm has given me a lot of experience, from administering meds, to dealing with wounds to just showing our animals lot of love and making them apart of the family. I have also cared for my friends and families pets along with foster and volunteer. My boyfriend and I live in a 2 bedroom house with a fenced in yard and currently have 2 furbabies; Sonya ( Pitbull - 1yr) and Turbo ( domestic short-hair - 3 mo kitten). Our babies are more than just our pets, they are our family and I assure you that we will treat your baby as a part of our family too! We enjoy long walks, trips to the park, chewing sticks, and lots of cuddles! Both of my pets are very well behaved and love making new friends! My rates are higher because it is hard work taking care of another's animals and while they are with me they will be in the best care possible :)

Rachel is amazing! She stayed in touch, sent us lots of pictures and was very accommodating. We’ll definitely be using her again, and her own pup is so sweet!

I met Rachel through one of my friends. I was in desperate need of a pet sitter, the one I hired had to quit at last minute, and I was about to leave for a week. My friend suggested a girl that she new. Since it was last minute I said ok that we would set up a meet and greet. Since then I wouldn't allow anyone else to watch my dogs for me. My dogs are usually very shy to new people but they warmed up to Rachel very quickly, she had a real interest in my animals and you could just tell that she loved what she does. I know that dogs will always be in great care when they are with her.

Rachel has been my best friend since kindergarten and I've never met someone who loves and cares for animals as much she does. I have 3 dogs and one cat and they are the light of my life. When i need someone to pet sit there's no one else I can count on besides for Rachel! She makes sure my babies are well taken care of and I know they are in great hands when they are with her!
