Pet care experience

A Safe, Loving Home Away From Home!

I’ve been caring for dogs for years, and one thing I always prioritize is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s overnight stays, playtime, walks, or just relaxing at home, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, so I make communication a priority. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know how your dog is doing 🤍 I keep a calm, clean, and safe environment and only take a limited number of dogs at a time to make sure each one gets plenty of attention and care. I’ve worked with dogs of all personalities and will always adjust to your dog’s needs, routines, and energy level to make their stay as stress-free as possible.

Rakya was awesome and our dog really loved her. She did great taking care of our baby. He seemed happy and healthy while enjoying his mini vacation! I will definitely book again with Rakya!

Rakya is a hero and an angel! My boys love her! She helped me out in a pinch with such short notice and provided such incredible love and care for my pups. She’s so friendly and kind and responsive. I would trust her implicitly. 10/10 would recommend!

Rakya is amazing! She is a consistent communicator and trustworthy - was so good with my dog (for a week-long stay) who is anxious in new situations!

Rakya was amazing and very accommodating! She watched my 5-month old puppy all day and he warmed right up to her. Will definitely book again.

Schedule

I’m a full-time dental student with a consistent schedule, which allows me to provide structured care. I also come home during lunch and dedicate my evenings and weekends fully to pet care. I’ll follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment, so we do not have yards. However, we have a dog park on the property and lots of local parks for some fun and good exercise.

A typical day

I love adventures! We can take trips to the local dog parks so that they can play with other dogs, go on long walks, car drives and have lots of play time both in and outdoors. I will tailor activities to each dog based on the owners suggestions and preferences.
