Professional & Experienced

"I love how quirky and delightful cats are, and that it sometimes takes a little while to discover all the aspects of their personalities!"

About Rachel D.

My name is Rachel and I am a lifelong cat lover. I adopted my first pet cat, Leo, when I was 10 years old, and he quickly became my best buddy. I love how quirky and individual cats are, and enjoy simply being around their energy, whether at playtime or while sitting quietly with them. Over the years I have cared for many of my friend’s and family member’s cats, including kittens and older cats requiring daily medication and lots of lap time. Having been a cat owner myself, I understand the importance of leaving your furry friends in the care of a sitter you trust, and I take that responsibility to heart. I hope to help pet parents feel at ease knowing that I am doing everything I can to keep your cat happy, calm, and cared for while you are away. In my non-cat sitting time you can find me quietly organizing insects at my day job in an entomology museum. Or working on my freelance art/illustration business. More often than not, the subjects of my art also involves (you guessed it), cats!

What Clients Say About Rachel D.

"Rachel is kind, good at communicating, thoughtful, responsible, and approachable. I also had Rachel cat sit for me on a number of occasions and I referred her to my mother to help look after one of her cats. I trusted Rachel with our cat's care given her love of animals, kind, calm, and caring nature."
