Experienced Vet Tech

I have worked as a veterinarian technician for 8 years and have experience with many different types of animals. My passion has always been to work with animals and give them the best care! I have experience with animals that have special dietary needs and medical needs. With my education and experience, I am confident that I can provide the best care for your animals. I am currently in an advanced veterinary technician school to receive my certifications.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

We live in an apartment with a screened-in porch. At home, we have one super chill cat and a bunny who has his own room. I usually prefer to care for pets at the client’s home so they can stay comfortable in their own space—and to avoid stressing my own cat, who’s very attached to me and might get jealous with another pet around.

Rachel house sat for me for the weekend. She communicated well and took great care of our babies. The house looked great upon our return and the animals were all happy and well cared for. I would recommend her to anyone needing her services!!!!

Rachel is awesome! Was always on time and very professional. Chloe, our 40lb pit mix looked forward to her evening walks with Rachel and we always got pics of their walk. Would highly recommend Rachel for any of her pet services!

Rachel took care of our senior cat & Great Dane for about two days. She was so communicative and sent us updates on how they were doing. We are so grateful & would recommend her to anyone who is interested in her taking care of their babies!

We have been using Rachel long before she signed on with Rover. We knew her from the neighborhood. Rachel is responsible, competent, and an effective communicator. We never have to worry about our fur baby when Rachel sits for Lucy! She is a cut above animal lover! And she sends us messages and photos to let us know how Lucy is doing. We highly recommend her!! Lucy just loves her she always has a huge smile on her face and her tail wags non stop when Rachel comes to care for her.

Schedule

Pet care is an important part of my everyday life. While working full-time at a veterinary clinic, I still have the availability to do up to three drop-in visits per day to feed, walk, and spend quality time with pets. On my days off, I’m home with my own cat and bunny, which gives me extra flexibility to provide longer visits, playtime, and cuddles. Caring for animals is a consistent and enjoyable part of my life, and I make sure it fits seamlessly into my schedule so every pet gets the attention they deserve.

Rachel can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
With 8 years of veterinary technician experience, I’m very comfortable giving medications and making sure pets stay on schedule with their care. I like to have a written list of medications and feeding instructions, and I also prefer to meet beforehand so we can go over everything together. This way, you’ll feel confident and I’ll know your pet’s routine inside and out.
