Pet care experience

Animal lover. Outdoors enjoyer.

My love for animals began at a young age when I adopted a kitten at just ten years old. Over the next 20 years, I had the privilege of raising her and experiencing every stage of her life—from playful kittenhood to the gentle needs of a senior cat. This journey has given me invaluable insight into animal behavior and the specific care requirements that come with each life stage. In addition to my experience with my cat, I've also taken care of numerous pets belonging to friends and family, focusing particularly on dogs. This has allowed me to gain hands-on experience with various breeds and temperaments, enhancing my ability to provide personalized care. Currently, I have a wonderful three-year-old Golden Retriever who is not only my pet but also my constant companion. Whether we’re hiking in the mountains or exploring along the riverbank looking for interesting rocks, he’s by my side every step of the way. His playful spirit adds joy to every day we spend together, and he loves making new furry friends! What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep commitment to the well-being of all animals in my care. I understand that pets are family members, deserving not only attention but genuine affection and understanding. You can trust that while you're away, your beloved companions will receive loving care tailored specifically to their needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends soon!

Safety, trust & environment

I live nearby a couple walking trails and a dog park, making it even easier to get outside at least once a day. My dog and I usually like to go hiking but it depends on the weather, despite this he gets at least a sidewalk walk almost everyday. My dog is very friendly and good with other dogs, he would love to keep yours company!

Raina was amazing with our puppy! She was super communicative, sent tons of photos and daily updates, and brought him along on all of the adventures! We will definitely be asking Raina to sit for us again!

Raina was very responsible with my two kitties, and went beyond the minimum required to endure my I’ll kitty get all the attention he needed while I was out of town. I felt very comfortable with the care Raina provided and would use her services again.

Raina was fantastic! She took great care of our cats and our dog while we were traveling. Our animals were so much more calm than usual when we returned from our trip. I highly recommend Raina!

Raina was absolutely wonderful, she was very knowledgeable and attentive to my dog’s needs when I was out of town. I really appreciated photo updates and regular communication. I can tell my dog had a great time while I was away. Thank you so much!

Schedule

I have my own three year old dog and 19 year old cat, so I have a pretty pet friendly lifestyle! I am also self employed which enables me to be very flexible with my schedule when planned in advance.

41 to 100 lbs

Raina can host up to 1 pet per night
My dog is an intact male, while he is very friendly and and gets along with other dogs, sometimes other intact males don’t appreciate him. Female dogs are great! But maybe not if they’re in heat.
