For new Rover users use the code below to get $20 off your first booking! RACHEH43298 https://www.rover.com/sit/racheh43298 Hello friends! After my sweet Yam passed last year I took a break from Rover, but I find myself missing the companionship of our fuzzy friends. I’m not quite ready to take on a new pup myself, but will give your fur baby all the love I had for Yam. I grew up on a farm and have cared for animals of all kind of backgrounds - dogs, cats, horses, sheep, goats, deer, coyotes, small mammals, birds, reptiles, and other exotic / wild animals. I have experience with disabled and special needs pets, medication management, and post surgery care. Senior animals are my true passion though! Because I live in a dog friendly building that has small children, I would not be a good fit for animals with any history of aggression against them. I’m happy to recommend others who would be able to take care of them though!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Rachel is an amazing dog sitter! I was nervous to use Rover for the first time and I could not have asked for a better experience with Rachel. She sent daily updates, exercised my dog with walks and brain-stimulating toys, and was mindful about keeping my dog cool in the hot weather. My only complaint is that my dog didn’t seem to want to leave when I picked her up 😂 10/10 experience!!
Thank you, Rachel! I appreciate your care and diligence.
Rachel was awesome! She was so easy to work with and very responsive. She took great care of my dog, and I will definitely book her again.
Rachel was so good with my pup for the week! She sent lots of photos and my dog Bernie seemed so sad to leave - it looked like he had a great time with her! Would definitely have her watch him again.
Rachel was very on top of things. She gave us such detailed reports and plenty of pictures while we were gone. She monitored our dogs eating habits and kept us up to date. Would definitely recommend her and use her again!
Rachel thank you so much for coming in the snow and all!!!!

Schedule
I work in the office 2 days a week, so will be with your baby the majority of the time and should be able to accommodate their bathroom schedule. I may have to briefly leave for the occasional errand / run to the office. These usually last 1-3 hours at the absolute most.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Some information about my place: I live in a very dog friendly building on the 8th floor. There’s an elevator, so it’s accessible to all animals with mobility limitations. While I don’t have a yard, I live very close to a number of parks and dog parks. I have a pet proof patio some animals like to sunbathe on and watch the neighbors below. I have hardwood floors and rugs, so I can lay those down or pick them up if your pet prefers. There are several dog beds around the apartment, but I always recommend bringing your own so they have a piece of home. We have food and water bowls, but please bring all food, medication, special toys, chew toys, treats, or blankets your baby uses for comfort!
A typical day
My schedule allows me to be as active or couch potatoey as your pup needs. If you have a pup with mobility issues I have several backpacks specifically designed for carrying pups so they don’t miss out on the action and can get their sniffs in!
