Pet care experience

I’ve never had my own dog but have BEGGED my parents for once since I was young. We settled on them letting me volunteer at the local animal shelter, where I mainly walk dogs and help out senior dogs. I’ve loved it so much I did it throughout college, but now that I’m out of college and have moved to a new town, am looking for a similar way to replicate that hobby. Currently also a grad student at Yale, so looking for a low maintenance way to make some extra allowance as well!

Rachel took wonderful care of my senior orange tabby, Bruno! He has very specific needs due to his age and Rachel was happy to go above and beyond to meet those needs, taking care of him for about 3 weeks. I let Rachel know that I love receiving text and photo updates whenever possible, so she always kept me updated and reassured, sending me photos of her playing with Bruno and keeping him good company throughout the time I was traveling. Rachel is a true animal lover, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter!

Rachel was amazing with my Siberian cat, Blair! She was incredibly kind, attentive, and kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I was worried because I was away for about a month, but I was totally comfortable because Rachel responded quickly and would give me so many updates! I would absolutely book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter! 🐾💙
