“It was the 1st time that our adopted cat Maizey,who is skittish, was being left without her a fellow adoptee. Our male Blue was boarded at the vet due to surgery recovery. We thought the double "firsts" might be too much but Maizey took to her right away. Raquel sent pictures of a very happy cat, detailed updates and we felt totally relaxed and knew that the cat was in good hands. Thank you Raquel!”

3. Rachel C.
“I was nervous to leave my cats in the care of someone new while traveling, but Rachel made sure they had everything they needed. She even did extra like washing the used food bowls and cleaning up the litter around their box. I appreciated the thoroughness of her notes during each check-in too. Thank you Rachel!”

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for my three dogs—Mya (14-year-old Silky), Maizie (6-year-old Australian Shepherd mix), and Zhu (13-year-old Black Lab). I’ve grown up with Maizie since she was a pup and have been with Mya and Zhu for five years, handling their care when my family is away. My deep bond with these dogs allows me to understand their unique needs and personalities. I specialize in attentive care for puppies and senior dogs and pride myself on making sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and safe. As I work toward my CPA certification and prepare to start my accounting job in the summer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care. I’m used to balancing multiple responsibilities, and I enjoy taking care of my own pets, so offering pet care services fits naturally into my routine. Whether it’s walking dogs or caring for cats, I make sure to give each pet the attention they need while managing my study and job preparation time efficiently. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, I ensure a pet-friendly, secure environment, with plenty of space for pets to relax and explore. I make sure all areas are free of hazards, and I provide fresh water and safe spaces for rest. Whether it’s during walks or while watching pets at their home, I closely supervise them, ensuring they are always safe and comfortable. I also prioritize communication with clients to ensure they trust me with their pets' well-being, offering regular updates and being responsive to any specific needs or concerns.
