I’m a freelance writer who works from home, so my schedule is extremely flexible. As long as I have a bit of advanced notice (24 hours or more) I can generally adjust my schedule to your/your pet’s needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for cats in other peoples’ homes by giving them ample time to warm up to me. I’m super open to cuddling, but I also try to give them plenty of space if that’s what they prefer. I try to keep a close watch on their eating and litter box habits and behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy.

Information Rachel B. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know a bit about their personality - whether they are on the shy side, or are more energetic and in-your-face. I love all kinds of pet personalities, however!

A typical day

I try to keep pets stimulated and make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise! This can look like playtime, head scritches and cuddling, or whatever best suits the individual cat or dog.

Rachel was very communicative and reliable! Our cats can be quite shy but they warmed up to Rachel and were in good spirits when we returned home. We’d definitely book with Rachel in the future!

Rachel was great! She sent plenty of pictures and provided sweet updates. She asked good questions on our first call, too. I’d highly recommend hiring her to take care of your pets!
