About me
My name is Rachel, I'm 29 and would love to meet and care for your fur baby! I am experienced with caring for many different types of animals and grew up with the company of rescue dogs, a cat, fish and even two rats!
My husband and I are based in Malpas/Newport and both currently work for the Fire Service. We also have a fur baby of our own named Willow - she's a 4 year old Ragdoll X.
What I love most about pet sitting is having the opportunity to meet pet owners and getting to know and earn the trust of their animals while at the same time putting your mind at ease while away. Rest assured I will send regular message and photo updates so you know how your pet is getting on.
I will also endeavour to accommodate any special requests that you might have. I know that during your absence your pet will be missing you very much so will always aim to help your animal feel as comfortable, happy and at ease as I can. :)
If you would like to know more or to see if I would be a good match, feel free to message me or arrange a free meet and greet.
My services
Dog waking - I’ll come and take your dog for a walk for a minimum of 40 minutes. I can take them in my car to somewhere new perhaps with lots of space to run or stay closer to home around their familiar walking spots.
Charges - £12 (if you require a longer walk this can be accommodated and price will be changed to match).
Home visits - I come to feed, change litter and cuddle/play with your pet. I am also happy to water any plants or maintain anything else you may require around the home.
Charges - £ 12 per visit or £16 for two per day (30 minutes minimum)
Home stays - Your pet can stay in the comfort of their own home while I come to keep them company all night as-well as tending to all their needs. I can also keep your home tidy and maintained.
Security measures - During my stay I will remain with your pet all evening and night and will never bring anyone else with me. Your address and details will be kept completely confidential and your house key will remain in a safe place with me at all times while out of your property.
Charges - £45 per night.
Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any special requirements.
My availability
If you are looking for a regular dog Walker or sitter for specific days a week, unfortunately I probably am not the right sitter for you.
Due to working shifts, my availability is never the same week to week. I do a rolling rotation of two 9 hour day shifts, two 15 hour night shifts and four days off. This does mean that I can be quite flexible and I have a lot of time off!
I am usually available to do house visits every day even on work days so long as you are happy they are before or after a shift.
Please also refer to my availability calendar which I keep updated.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Rachel is absolutely amazing. Our cat loves her and she is very lovely.
This was the second time Rachel came to take care of my kittens and she was wonderful. She is great at keeping me updated with pictures and telling me how it went when she was with the kittens. She is a lovely person and I will call her up again next time I wont be home. Thank you so much!
