Pet care experience

Experienced & Reliable Petsitter

I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities through years of pet sitting and fostering with PAWS Chicago and AntiCruelty Humane Society. I’m also currently raising and training my own German Shepherd puppy, so I have plenty of hands-on experience with puppy routines, positive-reinforcement training, leash walking, crate training, enrichment, and lots of puppy energy! I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable following each pet’s individual routine. As a healthcare professional, I’m also dependable, detail-oriented, and take safety very seriously.

I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with Rachel. She is clearly experienced with dogs and genuinely enjoys being around them. She was attentive to all the little details I gave her and kept me updated. I’d happily book her again

Schedule

I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for pet care. I have consistent weekday availability as well as additional availability that varies depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to work with you to find a routine that fits your pet’s needs, whether that’s walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or extra companionship during the day.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any house rules or training preferences. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and make sure pets receive plenty of supervision, enrichment, exercise, and affection. As a healthcare professional, I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and very comfortable following specific care and safety instructions.
