Pet care experience

Love to support other pet owners

I had a cat for 18 years. Loved the journey and understand the responsibilities and support a pet owner needs. 7 years ago, I started helping my friends to watch their dogs and cats when they are on vacations, and made many lovely pets friends since.

Rachel is the best dog sitter! Banksy loves her and so do we. She takes care of our pup so well and sends photos daily. Rachel is extremely reliable and accommodating as well. Her home is my dog’s home away from home.

Schedule

I work remotely and spend most of my time home except drop off and pick up. I generally take two walks in the neighborhood daily, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, would love to have even more motivations to just move my body and go outside.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment close to Los Altos downtown , very safe neighborhood. It is second stair hence can only host smaller, mid size dogs or cats.

A typical day

We do frequent walks in the neighborhood, and at home, I love to snuggle with my pet friend to read books, watch movies or just play hide and seek. I am a mother and experienced care giver, hence good at handling specific needs for your pet so that you have the peace of mind during your trips.
