Information Rachel S. would like to know about your pet

Please notify me ahead of time if your baby experiences anything such as separation anxiety or if they struggle with certain sounds, etc. I can accommodate many needs and the more I know in advance, the better I can do to keep your fur baby comfortable while you're away.

A typical day

I love to walk and am happy to take your fur baby out and about, if that's within their comfort zone. I'm also quite happy to play and offer enrichment through the home. I will make sure your baby gets the enrichment they need to stay happy and healthy!

Pets

Rachel S. has Star Sitter status

The Star Sitter program highlights responsive sitters who deliver highly rated care and have a history of listing accurate availability and preferences, making it easier for pet parents to find the best care for their pets.

I'll treat your fur baby as my own.

Pet care experience

I've always had a love for animals and have been trusted by family, friends, neighbors, and acquaintances for years to help take care of their babies while they are away. I have past experience working in vet clinics and animal shelters, which has led to general knowledge of animal behavior, as well as experience in medication administration.

We couldn’t have asked for a better house and cat sitter during our 10-day trip. From start to finish, she was incredibly responsible, communicative, and flexible, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated regularly, and it was clear our cats were in great hands. Even our shy cat—who usually keeps to themselves—came out to interact with her (especially at treat time!), which says a lot about the care and patience she showed. She handled medications without any issues and made sure all of their routines were followed. Beyond pet care, she took excellent care of our home as well. Everything was clean and well-maintained when we returned. She watered our plants, managed trash and recycling, and kept up with mail and packages, which was incredibly helpful. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and thoughtful sitter.
