Trusted and attentive sitter!

Pet care experience

As a physical therapist, I’m naturally attentive, patient, and detail-oriented—qualities I bring into caring for your pets. I’m comfortable monitoring behavior, sticking to routines, and adjusting care based on each pet’s needs, whether that means high-energy activity or a calmer, more supportive approach. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities, and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way!

Rachel is an excellent dog sitter. She has watched my dog numerous times while my wife and I were out of town. It’s immediately obvious that she is a natural “dog person” and that she truly cares about animals. She always follows directions for feeding, walking, and medication (when necessary). We appreciate knowing he’s in responsible hands. Most importantly, our dog LOVES Rachel and always gets excited when he sees her!

Growing up, Rachel was always in a home that had one or more dogs and sometimes a cat. She loved being around our pets and others pets. I know that she has taken care of others pets while they were out of town and always did a good job. I think she would be a natural for this kind of work.

Rachel always takes wonderful care of my sweet kitty! I always get plenty of videos and pictures from every visit morning and night! It also is nice to know that she spends some time with my sweet girl because I often think people don’t think cats need as much interaction as dogs but I know it makes all the difference since she is used to me being there most of the time!

Rachel has walked my dog TITO multiple times and he has stayed with her overnight as well. She is responsible caring and is always sending updates throughout the day. I could not recommend her enough. She loves animals. Her space is clean and safe and I would definitely recommend her to anyone!!
