Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine especially with pets of my own. It’s not just a job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for, making sure they receive consistent attention, feeding, playtime, walks, and any special care they require. Whether it's early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening cuddle sessions, I build my day to align with each pet's routine as closely as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions carefully to stick to your pet’s normal routine. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get the right amount of exercise, and have clean water and a tidy space. I also take time for play, affection, or just quiet companionship! Whatever your pet is most comfortable with. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always provide updates so you know your pet is doing great while you’re away.

Reliable and loving Pet sitter!

Pet care experience

I’m patient and compassionate with older pets, and I’m comfortable with administering medications, helping with mobility, and understanding the signs of discomfort or stress. I’ve worked with everything from high energy puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs who need gentle care, medication, and a slower pace.

Rachelle is prompt and responsive! She's very pleasant to deal with, she pet sat our dog for 2.5 days in our home while we were away. My pup was very calm and relaxed when i came home, which was great, since he can be very anxious at times. I will definitely contact her again, the next time we need to be away from home!

The deception and dishonesty are the main two reasons for this one star review. I had multiple conversations with Rachelle and left a detailed note to explain the schedule of the dogs routine and overall plan of care, Rachelle agreed to the routine and didn’t express any issues or conflicts with the schedule. She did not follow the agreed schedule to the point where my dogs were left alone without a potty break or food for 18 and 24 hours on the first two days of their scheduled care. I had to contact Rover support while I am away on vacation because she did not respond to my messages attempting to follow up on my dogs care. After communication was made, I had to point out the fact we had a camera and could see that she did not walk the dogs as she claimed and only had taken them for a 5 minute bathroom break. She continued to lack punctuality throughout the duration of care. This overall experience has made me no longer want to utilize Rover services.
