Animal lover and cat mom

Pet care experience

I’ve had a dog my whole life and have helped my family take care of their pets since I was young. I recently lost my childhood dog and miss the companionship. I have a 1 year old cat, Violet, who I’ve been raising since she was just a few weeks old.

Rachel was so amazing with our cats, and truly saves us when we needed a sitter last minute. She was incredibly reliable, communicative and gave us regular photos and updates, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend!

Rachel was great! Albert loved snuggling with her and definitely told us he’d love to see her again! Highly recommend Rachel for your pet sitting needs.

Information Rachel W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any medications your pet is on and any conditions that your pet has. It’s also helpful to know what kind of food they eat and how often, and of course any fun facts or their favorite toys!

A typical day

I typically wake up and feed Violet breakfast and then have lots of play time. We then like to cuddle on the couch and watch tv before I get ready for the day. I take lots of breaks to play with her and her favorite thing to do is play fetch (she’s a strange kitten for sure)
