About Rachel
Experience: 3 yrs
Hi! I just graduated college for my bachelors in history and anthropology. I love animals and have had dogs and cats since I was born. Right now, I only have a cat and chinchilla, but I have spent my whole life taking care of both cats and dogs. I'd describe my personality as compassionate, friendly, and hard working. I'm looking for a job that lets me interact with and take care of animals. I recently started volunteering at an animal shelter for cats and have gained a lot of experience there. I did training at a doggy daycare in Albany, I've learned how to properly handle a dog, how to get a dog to disengage with others and understand dog body language. My skills include basic animal first aid, communication, and reliability.
Most recent review
Rachel was great to work with. She asked lots of questions in our first meeting to validate everything required for caring for my rabbit. She took care of Ginger exactly as we discussed and I would happily hire her again in the future.
