Private Room Just for Your Cat
I know how sensitive and particular cats can be — that’s why I’ve created a dedicated, quiet room just for feline guests. 🐱✨ Your cat will have their own stress-free sanctuary away from dogs and other animals. The space is calm, cozy, and designed with their comfort in mind perfect for relaxing, napping, and adjusting at their own pace. Whether your kitty is a confident explorer or a nervous little soul, they’ll be given the time and space to feel safe, loved, and at home. I check in regularly with soft care, playtime, fresh water, clean litter, and snuggles (when they’re ready for it!). No barking, no chaos, just gentle vibes and one on one attention.

Safety, trust & environment
For dogs, I offer: • A calm, structured environment with room to relax and play • Frequent potty breaks, cuddles, and enrichment time • Safe indoor spaces and cozy nap spots (plus extra love for anxious pups) For cats, I provide: • A private, quiet room away from other animals to reduce stress • Clean litter boxes, fresh water, and daily one-on-one interaction based on their comfort level I follow each pet’s unique routine as closely as possible and stay in close communication with their humans for updates, photos, and peace of mind. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or high-maintenance they’ll feel safe, seen, and loved here.
Ratings and reviews
She was amazing. Took care of my two huskies like they were her own. I appreciate her communication and just being an amazing sitter! Will use her again soon!


When this girl says she’s the auntie she REALLY MEANS IT. This girl is the auntie to my dogs, my cats, my kids, and everything else too, I’m telling YOU!!! If you want buttoned up service for your pet, this ain’t it. But if you want someone to love your pet more than you do and let your pet sleep in the bed with her, she’s your girl.


Ela has watched our dog twice now and we love her!! She’s the best!! She takes such good care of our girl and she has a blast with all of the dogs. 100% recommend! We’ll be using her again and again

We found Rafaela after realizing our dog wasn’t super happy at her boarding. She is so happy to go and is very cared for. We have felt great about leaving her with Rafaela and would highly recommend.

Thank you again



This weekend was the first time I left my pups at a sitter’s house, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Ela is incredibly loving with all the animals in her care. I felt at ease knowing my babies were happy—and that’s what mattered most. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Schedule
As an entrepreneur, I create my own schedule and work primarily from home , which means I have the flexibility to prioritize your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a last minute drop-in or a daily routine, I’m able to adjust my day to give your pet the love, attention, and care they deserve. Since I’m on my homestead most of the time, I’m fully present and available throughout the day for feedings, walks, check-ins, cuddles, or just being a comforting presence. Your pet isn’t just a task on a list they become part of my family!
