About Rachel
I am a provisional psychologist and I am currently employed at an animal assisted therapy clinic. I have had dogs in the past and I am currently studying dog training to help with my work with therapy animals. I have previously worked with animals in a variety of settings. I worked as a farm hand for a children's interactive farm, caring for a diverse range of animals including dogs, cows, chickens, deer, camels, kangaroos, and even emus! I have also worked with Australian animals at a private Zoo; working with birds, reptiles and macropods. Lastly, I have had the pleasure of working at a cat boarding facility where I was responsible for caring for many cats and ensuring they had a happy and comfortable stay. I then come home and cuddle with my 15 year-old cat, Goose ad my beautiful Koolie dog Inala.
My experience with a variety of animals has eliminated any fear for "unusual" pets, and I understand the many different requirements for their wellbeing.
If you trust me to look after your beloved pets I ensure they will be well looked after and respected.

Looked after our boy very well! Sent me lots of photo updates and gave Theo all the cuddles he needed while we were gone.

Rachel has looked after my animals on a variety of occasions when I go overseas. Billy - Alexandria Parrot Hutch - Rottweiler Cookie - Tabby Cat Dexter - Bull Terrier The extent of her knowledge with animals proved very useful when Hutch got very ill as he had been hiding food he shouldn’t have been eating. Her ability to stay calm in that situation was amazing as I was hysterical and crying. She’s always on time and respectful of the house cleaning up after herself and the animals I promise anyone who entrusts their feathered and furry friends to her will not regret it.
