Loving pet sitter
Pet care experience
Hi my name is Rachel! I am currently a Front of House Manager working for the University of Colorado Boulders Athletic department. I work Monday-Friday 5:00am-2:00pm and am joining Rover in the hopes of dog sitting/walking for people on the weekends. I moved to Colorado from North Carolina about a few years ago and have been enjoying the Colorado lifestyle ever since! I myself have an F2 Labradoodle named Lincoln, Velocilincoln, sorry for the Jurassic park reference. I have worked with and around dogs since I was 10 years old. I was the only kid in the neighborhood who was home during the week because I was a homeschooler so naturally I figured out this put me in a prime position to be a dog walker. I made flyers, put them in people’s mailbox and eventually became a the neighborhood dog walker. There was Wolfie the Schnauzer, Jeep and Sierra the Vizslas, Ginger the Golden retriever, Cinnamon a gorgeous mixed breed, and Terra a giant German Shepherd. I walked and cared for the pups everyday until I started high school. Big, Small, Bold, Reserved, I love em all and will care for them like my own!
Reviews
Rachel is amazing, very communicative & I know my pup is safe in her hands. Will book with her again, 10/10 ♥️
Rachel was great! She was warm and responsive and sent lots of updates. She even went beyond and troubleshooted our robot litter box when it wasn’t working properly. I would definitely rebook her.
Rachel was so great! She sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away! Couldn’t have asked for anyone better to watch our pup.
Rachel has always been great with animals. She is very caring and loving when bathing our dog. She loves them and they love her, always have and always will. She is a super great dog/cat sitter.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home or in a clients home I follow all directions and make sure the pet is comfortable/calm. I care very much that the pet is not in distress while you are away. On top of following your directions I know how to listen to your pets needs and respond accordingly. i am respectful of your house and will stay where I am supposed to be. I do not mind being on camera etc.
Information Rachel S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any qualities I should know about. Qualities I have in mind are medical issues, fears, past traumas, favorite place to ?, do they eat right away or need some time “alone” lol. Etc! Please tell me anything you want me to know about your fur baby.
A typical day
In my experience most people have given me written directions on the little details they want to be remembered about caring for their pet. I come at whatever time your dog is used to being fed and let out for the bathroom. Take them on a nice walk to start the day, play with them for a little while longer and then go home until it is time for them to have dinner! I can accustom my daily schedule to whatever your animal needs!

Availability
Pet care is a priority for my daily/weekly routine. I’ll wake up earlier to take a pet out before work or will skip a CrossFit class to ensure we get a good walk in.
