Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet is my #1 priority!
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile! I have been working with animals my whole life and been here on Rover for about 3 years now. I love to be active and outdoors and I also love to be around pets! It's a win-win, as I get to be your pet's buddy for a while, and they get to be mine! I am comfortable with all dog and cat breeds and ages, and even have some experience with rodents (I've had rats, mice, and gerbils), fish, and livestock. I am comfortable with helping out with oral and topical medications as well, and have no problems cleaning up accidents. I was formerly a full-time college student here in Gainesville majoring in psychology and biology but have since graduated this December! Pet sitting and walking has been so rewarding and I am grateful to be doing it while in school and I'm happy to do it now until I can find a job. While working with you and your pets, I aim to be as transparent as possible, communicating any and everything with you: I believe being informed and open is the best way for me, you, and your pets to be comfortable, happy, and safe. The more I know, the better I can service! You will be given frequent updates and pictures, and I will not hesitate to ask questions or clarification to give the best care I am capable of. I take this job seriously, and understand how hard it can be to entrust someone with your pet. They stay my #1 priority while in my care.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Communication is key! When we get to talking I will be making sure we are both on the same track, and that I am fulfilling every need and preference. Tell me what to do, and I'll get it done! Random schedules, funny eating routines, favorite games, and anything in-between will be done without a bat of an eye. I love written instructions you've done yourself but it's not required: I have my own questionnaire we can fill out during the meet and greet !
Ratings and reviews
Raima was so amazing. I needed a last minute booking and she came to my rescue. I will definitely book with her again and recommend you do too!
Raima is the best! She is so sweet & our dog loves her. She gives detailed updates and sends lots of pictures. We use her every time we have to be away and never worry about our pets. We ♥️ Raima!!!
Raima continues to be our go-to when we need to leave our fur babies behind, and we know they are very well cared for. We now come home to find them relaxed and just excited to have us back home. Her check in cards are the best, my husband and I love to read the funny notes and pictures Raima shares with us. She goes out of her way to make the drops in special and cares for our two dogs and cat and we have no worries while we are away. Cannot say enough positive things about Raima and her care of our pets!!
Raima did a fantastic job taking care of my 3 little babies. She helped me out last minute which I really appreciate. I loved the communication and definitely will be booking her again!
Rains does an excellent job taking care of my animals, 2 cats and a senior dog with medical issues. I can go out of town and not worry in the least, as Raima takes such good care of them and it shows how much she loves animals. She administers meds and injections to my dog, plays with all 3 of them and does such a great job. My cats usually disappear when strangers come to the house. They play with Raima and even sit on her lap! I’d highly recommend Raima and will continue to use her.
Raima gives me peace of mind when I’m away from home because she provides such excellent care to my fur babies! My dog is diabetic and requires twice daily insulin shots as well as other medications and she handles all the medical requirements properly and appropriately. I highly recommend Raima for all of your pet needs!

Schedule
I currently work about 30-40 hours a week and therefore have unfortunately discontinued watching most of my dog clients I've had over the years. However my love for pet sitting is strong, and I still love watching all sorts of pets whose care works with my schedule! That is often cats and small animals like our bird and rodent friends, where they are a little more flexible with timing of my visits! If you need a sitter to simply come once a day to play, feed, and clean up, feel free to reach out! My most common shift at work is from 8am to 4pm, and then I can come visit your pet in the evening! I am also flexible to come early in the morning before my shift as well if needed.
