Loving dog sitter

Pet care experience

I’ve always loved dogs. I enjoy playing with them and taking care of them, I’ve had a couple of dogs growing up and have been dog sitting for the past two years for friends and friends of friends.

Rafaela is wonderful! Don’t hesitate to book her to care for your pets. She will treat your dog/cat like one her own. Her sweet dog, Mel was a welcome companion for my little toy Papillion. I will most definitely call Rafaela again.

Rafaela is great! She showed up on time and took care of my puppy Tiko. She was very helpful during the entire process of booking. We will def call her again

Rafaela is an amazing petsitter! My chihuahua loves her, and he is always happy to spend time with her. Rafaela treats him as if he was her own, with lots of love. I’m thankful that I have found her to look after him when I am away. He is my baby, and it is heart broken to stay away from him. That being said, my heart feels in peace when I drop him off with her. I trust her and would 100% recommend her as a petsitter.

Rafa is a true dog lover and enjoys taking care of other people’s dogs as much as her own! I’ve known Rafa on a personal and professional level for 5 years, and have asked her several times in a pinch to walk my two pit bulls. She always makes herself available and makes sure they get a good walk as well as cuddles afterwards! If you want someone who will treat your dogs as if they were her own, look no further!

I love to take the dogs on long walks around the block and/or in the parks nearby. I also have tons of toys that they can play with at my apartment so they will never be bored.

I currently work from home. My schedule allows me to go on walks often with dogs and to spend as much time as I want with them giving them the attention they need. ‼️‼️For housesitting requests I do bring my dog, she’s very calm and friendly, so please let me know if that’s okay and we can have the dogs meet.
