Long time pet owner & animal lover

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Rachel and I’m here to take care of your beloved furry children! I have loved taking care of animals for as long as I can remember and would no doubt take care of yours like they were my own. My experience goes pretty far back. My mother started her own pet sitting business when I was just 5 years old and it was an amazing childhood going with her to clients homes to take care of a wide variety of animals (dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals such as hamsters and guinea pigs—almost nothing was off the table!). She taught me the tools of great customer service and how to be a responsible, engaging and loving animal caretaker. You can have peace of mind knowing I will bring these skills with me while taking care of your dogs or cats! My pets: I grew up with an energetic family dog (hound mix) and I now have an adorable cat (lynxpoint siamese)!

Rachel was easy to communicate with and my dog loved her! Would definitely use her services again.

Again, Rachel was fantastic. We didn't have to worry about our pets at all while she cared for them, she's super responsive, and I'm thrilled we found her!

Rachel was a fantastic house sitter! She was flexible, friendly, and everything was in great order when we arrived home. Everyone was happy and healthy, and I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying.

Rachel was a great overnight pet-sitter for my two greyhounds! She was very responsive through the booking, pre-stay visit, and stay with the dogs. She left my house very clean and tidy as well. I highly recommend Rachel as a pet sitter and will definitely contact her the next time I need a sitter.
