Dog Sitting in Media

About: Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to care for their pets while they’re away. I have experience with dog walking, potty breaks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and overnight care for dogs of all sizes. For the past 5 years, I’ve also fostered kittens and helped care for them until they found their forever homes. Being around animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love getting to spend time with them and care for them like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I always try to work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I have experience caring for animals of all sizes and personalities, including fostering kittens for the past 5 years and caring for dogs from small breeds to Great Danes. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pets with someone, and I will always treat them like my own. I also have a cocker spaniel and two cats, Mr. Beans and Suki, so caring for animals is a huge part of my everyday life!

About: I trained my own service dog and loved the process, so after retiring, I started dog training and pet care. I am in the process of becoming a certifed dog trainer. I provide complimentary training in leash manners for walks, and I bring enrichment toys for drop-in visits. I am semi-retired, with a part-time consulting practice. I have a great deal of flexibility after 11:00 a.m. on most days, including weekends and holidays. I use my experience in reading dog behavior to determine the best way to get to know your dog in your home. I let the dog take the lead and engage them in their favorite activities. I also bring puzzle toys for dogs who enjoy that kind of challenge, and offer five minutes of complimentary training at each visit. For walks, I provide 5-10 minutes of complimentary training in leash skills such as "heel" and "leave it."

“This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs of all ages since I was 18 years old! I’m a cat owner of 4 years myself as well, and my kitty is my very best friend. As far as sitting, I have done mostly done overnight stays, but I have done pop ins and walking as well. I’ve sat for small dogs and large, puppies, kittens and elderly pups. I absolutely love spending time around and caring for animals. I do work part time, usually averaging about 5 shifts a week. I make my own schedule biweekly, and my shifts are generally no more than 5-6 hours, so my hours are extremely flexible depending on when I’m needed! I am all for play, walking, and unlimited pets when I dog/cat sit. I will pay careful attention when it comes to letting them out if there is a fenced yard, as well as to their collar and leash prior to taking them out on walks. A pet owners directions are very important to me as far as feeding/potty/medication times, and I take the responsibility of caring for any animal very seriously.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 12. From pet sitting for families with cats and/or dogs, walking dogs for many summers, attending to animals when I babysat, and taking care of my own dog, Kurt, I have done it all! I take pride in taking care of animals, and love to spend time with them. Whether that is playing with them, walking them, or just caring for their basic needs. I currently also work a part time job, which gives me free time to take care of your pets most every weekend, and during the day Mondays between 12-5 and after 6, Thursdays after 4, and Fridays between 12-6 I will follow whatever schedule/routine you typically do for your pet in your home! I can feed them, fill their water, take them out, play with them, or even just keep them company for a bit!!

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old who recently passed away. I live with my parents who are also fellow animal lovers and love when I pet-sit for friends. It brings life and fun to our household to host your furry friends. I currently work part time waitressing a few nights a week nearby. I am off weekends so I have all that time carved out to take care of pets! I have an unfenced, medium sized open field directly across from my condominium building I can take your pet for potty breaks and play time. I can keep them leashed for their safety. My parents, who I live with, are fellow animal lovers who love spending time with animals. I have a lazy cat who spends most of the day sleeping, but he lives upstairs in our split unit with my parents. My unit is entirely separate from where he resides, so if your pet doesn’t like cats, it’s no problem!
