I work from home 3 days a week so am available for lunch time visits if needed. I vary my visits to fit them in on work days but this also helps keep your home safe. If a specific timed visit is needed I will do my best to be regular ie for medication.

Safety, trust & environment

I will keep your home secure either with a key you provide or a key safe. I will keep your home clean and tidy. I wash food bowls and clean litter trays every visit. Happy to water plants if needed, and hoover up any mess your pet makes.

Information Rachel B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your cat has any special needs or requirements or if there are any behaviours I need to be aware of ie marking territory or not using the tray.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your cat and will play with them until either they or I am worn out during the visit. With less confident cats I will sit quietly as close as they will let me and talk softly to them so that they relax.

Cat care experience

My day job is with Dorset Council supporting people to find the help they need. I have had cats my whole life, starting with two Siamese and a beautiful black boy as a child and then rescue cats from the day we moved into our first house. Life is not life without a cat 🐱 We’ve always had dogs too although not at the moment. We have two beautiful 16 old girls and a 14yr old girl at the moment, gorgeous rescues who are keeping us in our place as their servants 🤣

Rachel has been amazing with our old lady Cookie. She sent twice daily updates and photos and clearly Cookie loved her. Loved hearing about her on the updates, it made it feel very personal and special. Our plants watered and even fed our birds and squirrels in the garden. It's been a godsend to be able to go away and not worry about leaving her. Thank you Rachel 🥰
