Pet Sitting in Vilas

About: With hands-on experience caring for a variety of breeds including French Bulldogs, Labrador Retrievers, Dachshunds, and Pit Bulls, I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs. From playful energy to gentle cuddles, I tailor my care to make every pup feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it's a short walk, feeding time, or extended pet sitting, I treat every dog like they’re my own. As a nursing student at Appalachian State University and a part-time CNA in Boone, I’ve learned to balance a busy schedule with reliability and compassion—both of which I bring to pet care. I'm typically available in the afternoons and evenings on days when I'm not working at the hospital. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine, and spending time with animals is actually one of my favorite ways to unwind! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I stick closely to your pet’s schedule for walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime—just like you would. Whether it’s a short sitting session or a quick walk, I make sure they feel secure and loved. I’m respectful of your home, always clean up after the pets, and give them plenty of attention, whether it’s tossing a toy, a belly rub, or just keeping them company.

About: I’ve lived on a farm for most of my life, I’ve had many years of experience taking care of all sorts of animals as well as any types of administrative medicine and training! Pet care is always a joy to me, as a college student I try I balance life and school the same. Although I focus on my dreams in the near future I always go back to my roots with growing up with animals it’s my passion. My own animals at home which range from a variety of large farm animals and regular domesticated animals, I have a deep respect for animals and how they feel living in their environment. I believe all animals deserve the same treatment and respect, whether that be regular feeding and walking or even just playing with toys, I love making them feel special and comfortable.

About: With 4 years of hands-on experience at a busy doggy daycare (Pooch Pad), I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I managed feeding, medication, potty breaks, and playgroups for 50+ pups daily. Whether your dog is energetic or shy, a puppy or a senior, I know how to keep them safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care is a top priority in my weekly routine, and I’m committed to making time for your furry family member. I typically work at Earth Fare from 2–8 PM on weekdays, but I’m flexible and happy to work around my schedule to ensure your pet receives the care, attention, and love they deserve. I love staying active and enjoy daily walks at Greenway Park, making it the perfect outing for energetic pups. I also cherish cuddle time—your furry friend will get plenty of love, attention, and affection. Animals truly feel like mini best friends to me, and I treat them with the care and companionship they deserve.

“My family and I rented a house in the mountains and wanted to all go out for dinner but needed somebody to come in for a couple of hours and sit with our dog. Found Rachel she was a godsend! The whole transaction through Rover was fabulous. She was punctual, caring, loving, and above all actually brought homemade sourdough bread for us! I cannot recommend her enough. Thanks again, Rachel!”

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was a toddler. I have fostered, pet sat for friends and family many times and recently lost my own dog of 13 years. I recently retired and miss having a pup in my life. I’m available and flexible for daily walks as well as able to provide boarding in my home. I am very attentive and loving toward all fur babies. I’m a firm believer that exercise and interactive play is essential in developing a bond with each pup.
