Pet care experience

Hello, Rachel here 👋🏻 Dogs have been a part of my life since the day I was born. I've been dog-sitting for two years now, and I’m grateful to have built regular relationships with 5+ wonderful pups and their owners. My calendar can get busy with regulars, but I always make time to ensure every dog in my care feels safe. Outside of pet-sitting, I work as an Operations Manager at a Venture Capital firm. Beyond pet-sitting, I also have hands-on experience volunteering at a dog shelter with 15+ dogs. There, I helped with everything from daily walks to breaking up playful scuffles and, of course, cleaning up after them. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all temperaments, whether they’re shy, energetic, or need a little extra patience. I have two poodles back home in Hong Kong that I miss dearly, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your dog when you're away. I know it can be nerve-wracking to leave your pup with someone new, which is why I always provide plenty of updates and photos—so you can feel at ease knowing your dog is happy and well cared for.

Rachel’s taken care of my dog twice now for daycare and I can’t recommend her enough! She always arrives on time, provides photo updates throughout the day, and takes care of my dog well. He always comes back happy and tired (which means more rest for his mommy)!

Rachel was so lovely and sweet with taking care of my dog today. She arrived on time to pick him up and sent me updates with pics and videos throughout the day. She’s super responsive and prepared, which put my mind at ease. I would book her again for sure, my dog loved her!
