Pet care experience

Loves animals and genuine care!

I have been taking care of dogs of various breeds since I was about 11 years old, but I've had my previous dogs for 13 years helping to take care of them. This was for my neighbors, friends, family, and they have relied on me to feed, walk, and provide companionship for their pets. I treat these dogs as if they were my own and fill their home and environment with so much love and care to ease their anxiety. I am a registered veterinary technician and am experienced with various care levels!

Safety, trust & environment

I had two doggies of my own at home who recently passed, but I have lots of experience with older dogs and giving oral medication own, but with this I strictly focusing on my client’s needs. I have two leashes already and poop bags that I can use but am also willing to use whatever materials the client has as well. I offer lots of companionship and words/hugs of encouragement with whichever pet I am caring for to ensure they feel safe and can trust me. I currently have one little dog and am a veterinary technician in training (currently in school).

Rachel is a wonderful person to work with. She responds to messages very quickly and is very flexible with modifications and needs of pets. Rachel sent us a photo of our pet while we were away and was very attentive to his needs. After booking with Rachel for one day, we immediately requested her services the next! We will definitely work with Rachel whenever we are in the area.

I cannot say enough good things about Rachel's housesitting with Midge! Rachel was responsive, caring, and highly reliable. Midge has high emotional needs and Rachel was fantastic with her throughout, as well as keeping me informed of her well-being. This was the first trip in the 11 years that I have had Midge that I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about her. Midge was clearly happy and well-adjusted when I returned---a first for her! The house was just as a I left it as well. Rachel was a true blessing to myself and Midge!

I’m currently working part time with Rover, but in July I will be primarily offering dog walking and drop ins since I am moving back with my family!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Rachel can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I have never performed dog CPR, but I am certified and with basic first aid. I have taken care of small injuries until I can take the dog to vet ahead of time (with the location of the desired vet). I would like to know if the dog has anxiety, has certain eating conditions, any other special circumstances that would make the dog more comfortable and to care for them well.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
