About Rachel K.
Communication
Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
HYGIENE & SAFETY: I always wash my hands before and after each visit and either wear socks reserved for your home or disposable slippers if needed. I’m meticulous about not bringing in anything that could be harmful to your cats—my older cat had a weaker immune system, so I’m extra cautious. I’m also mindful of plants and flowers that are toxic to cats, thanks to my curious little troublemaker at home who loves to chew on them. CAMERAS: I’m totally comfortable with cameras in your home—just not in the bathroom.
Information Rachel K. would like to know about your pet
MEET & GREET: I’d love to learn more about your cat! Notes are always helpful, but I also really value meeting in person before finalizing the booking. A meet and greet is a great way for your cat to get to know me—and for us humans to make sure we’re a good match too.
A typical day
CAT CARE APPROACH: Every cat is unique, and I tailor my approach to fit their personality. I love engaging in playtime when they’re active, but I’m just as happy to quietly groom or sit with more laid-back cats. I completely understand that some need time to warm up—patience builds trust, and I’m in no rush. UPDATES: I know how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so I’ll send plenty of photos and videos during each visit. If you’re comfortable sharing your WiFi, I can even send real-time updates.

Reviews
Left comprehensive daily report cards, good selection of photos, good communication! Couldn't ask for better
Rachel is amazing!! She is thoughtful and responsive and clearly cares about my kitten! My girl also obviously has the best time playing with Rachel and is happy to have her come by. Rachel’s updates are thorough and I feel complete peace of mind when traveling. Couldn’t recommend her as a cat sitter enough!
Rachel and T.C. were wonderful and attentive. This was my second time having them take care of Osa and Spock for a week or more. I can tell my cats really enjoy playing with them when they come over and I will definitely rebook in the future!
Rachel and TC are the best! They’re incredibly responsive and our kitty loves them. We feel very at ease when they are taking care of her and love all the cute photos they take. Highly recommend!!
