Pet care experience
We bring love and care to Dogcation
Hello! Thanks for visiting our profile page. My partner and I have been doing dog sitting since 2022 and we absolutely love going on more adventures with your fur babies! We have a senior lab, Juno, who loves all people and dogs! She was adopted from San Francisco in 2019, and we helped her build a lot of confidence and taught her how to be comfortable around different environment when she just got out of the shelter. We are excited to build a relationship with your pups that allow them to feel safe,comfortable and have fun with us! Our experience with our rescue will make sure your pup is comfortable in a new environment while having our calm and welcoming lab around. We make sure the pups maintain their routines while their parents are away and we love sending a lot of updates to keep the parents in loop.

Ratings and reviews
We had another great experience with Rafael, Celeste, and Juno. They take such great care of our pup. He is always excited to see them and tired when we pick him up. We can't say enough about how much we value their care of our special guy!
Absolutely amazing is all I can say. Always wonderful communicators and so flexible! Our pup loves Juno and always comes home exhausted and never wants to leave!
Rafael and Celeste far exceeded our expectations for quality care. They really went above and beyond to make sure our dog was happy, comfortable, and content. They were very communicative and made sure we had photos and updates throughout the day. Our dog can sometimes have a little separation anxiety but it was clear that she felt super comfortable with Rafael and Celeste. It was a relief to know we could leave our baby with others and know that we could relax completely knowing how well she was being taken care of. I can't recommend Rafael and Celeste enough!
Rafael and Celeste were phenomenal! We received plenty of pics from daily walks, snuggles and adventures, and our pup had a blast! Will definitely use again!!
We were visiting from out of town and needed to drop Dixie off with someone while we got dinner and cocktails in downtown Seattle. We appreciate all the love and attention on such short notice! Thanks again!
They are so communicative, and I never have to worry about Luna when she’s with them. Thank you!!

Schedule
We take the pups out first thing in the morning, and we would go on an 1-2 miles walk before breakfast. We make sure they get their potty breaks throughout the day in our small yard, and we love playing with them at home if they get zoomies, such as tug of war and fetching! We also love training new commands such as “leave it” and “stay” using high quality and single ingredient treats! Our schedule is very flexible for drop offs and pick ups as well! We will plan your pup’s stay with us following their routine to make sure it feels like home to them :) In the afternoon after work finishes, we like to take them on longer walks or park time! We are more than happy to take your pups to their favourite park and go on fun adventures! On the weekend we love to hike and explore all sorts of dog friendly stuff. So far we have taken pups on dog friendly 5k race, paddle boarding, and dog parade!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We go on long walks every morning in our quiet neighborhood, potty break at our fenced yard during the day, and after work we love to go to the park and roll around in the grass :) we would love to explore your dog’s favourite hiking trails, parks, and do the things that they love the most with them! So please feel free to share where we should take them while they are with us! When we are working at home, we let the pups to play or nap around us. This allows us to keep an eye on the pups at all times and snuggle/rub them when we are taking a break. We are very responsive and we love sending some pictures during your pupper’s stay!
Pets
A typical day
We usually start our day with a potty break in our yard and then head out for a mile or longer long walk! During the walk, we let the pups take their time sniffing because we believe sniffing for them is like us reading the New York Times. We will come back home for breakfast and let the pups take their midday naps. The pups sometimes like to play with their toys after digesting the food, and we have a lot of options here! We like to do another long walk in the afternoon at different parks and say hi to other dogs on the walk as well. We also love fetching with pups if that’s something they enjoy :)
