About Rakel B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I currently live in a clean, quiet, and dog-friendly apartment building. There are dog parks nearby and plenty places to walk your dog! However, I am also more than happy to follow your dog's current routine and take them on their favorite walking routes or to their favorite park! The duration and location of walks are entirely up to you while your dog is with me!
Information Rakel B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any health requirements/needs (such as medication or supplements), or any behaviors I need to be aware of. Are there any specific activities your pet enjoys?
A typical day
Everyone knows their pet best and what works for them. I want to make sure both the dog and the client are comfortable and happy. If there is a certain routine your dog is used to or a walking route they prefer, I am more than happy to accommodate. The same goes for playtime, every dog has different energy levels and requires a different approach to ensure they are happy and getting the most out of our time spent together. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!🐾

Loving, reliable care you can trust
Pet care experience
Finding someone to trust with your pet is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly at all. I grew up in California surrounded by animals, so taking care of pets has always been a big part of my life. I’ve looked after my own pets, family pets, and friends pets for as long as I can remember, and it’s something I genuinely love doing. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs, from big breeds like Rottweilers and Newfoundlands to smaller ones like Papillons and Pomeranians, plus everything in between like Golden Retrievers and Pit Bulls. Every dog has such a different personality, and I really enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy. I also have a lot of experience with cats. I grew up with them, have cared for many over the years, and have even bottle-fed kittens. I’m also experienced with giving medication and caring for senior pets, so I’m happy to help with more specific needs too. I currently have an English Bulldog named Phoebe, and she’s very loved (and very spoiled), so I completely understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your pet like family. That’s exactly how I approach every pet I care for. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm, comforting presence, I’ll adjust to whatever they need to feel safe and happy. And as someone who’s a bit of a perfectionist, I’ll also make sure your home is kept clean and just the way you left it. Right now I’m studying for the LSAT and saving for my wedding with my fiancé, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and can give your pets a lot of attention and care. My goal is for your pet to feel completely comfortable and loved while you’re away, and for you to feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets 🐾
