Doggy Staycations Here! :)

Growing up, I always wanted a pet dog but I wasn’t allowed to have one. I love volunteering to watch a friends dog or cat whenever needed. After doing Rover for a couple months, I can honestly say these dogs are apart of my family. I love when one of my lil nieces or nephews come to visit!

Our boy, Mikey, loves his time with Ranchaela. She is the only sitter we trust

Ranchaela is wonderful. Our little ones immediately gravitated to her and she was extremely communicative while we were away with providing updates, photos, & videos. I highly recommend her.

The best! Ranchaela watched my 6 month old PUPPY who was still struggling with night time settling. When I picked the puppy up, she was calm and completely unphased. My previous dogs would need time to recover from boarding but my puppy didn't seem to notice we were gone. The puppy required a lot of attention and appreciate Ranchaela taking her in for me.

I cannot recommend Ranchaela enough. Our boy is heartworm positive and she did research on his limitations and how to handle them. We got daily videos and pictures. I have already booked more vacations for Mikey. There is do much doggie love in this house!

Ranchaela is great! She is easy to work with and kind. Our trips dates had to change at the last minute. She worked with us and easied our stress. My dog took to her right away and made himself comfortable in her house. She sent regular pictures and updates, and asked questions when she needed. She is a real dog lover. I would use her again and recommend her without any hesitation.

Pinot absolutely loves his stays with Ms. Ranchaela! When we pull up, he’s jumps out of the car. She is very kind and attentive and I know when I drop him off, he’s in a good hands. Pinot is a high energy puppy so her patience with him is God sent. Highly recommend!!

Schedule

I work from home, so I have ample time to tend to your dogs/cats needs. I can generally work around any schedule. Early morning drop offs or late night pickups are fine. Go ahead and take that vacation and your dog/cat is in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and can take your dog/cat on walks as needed. I don’t have any other pets so your dog/cat can get one on one attention if needed. I do this as a hobby, so I generally don’t like having more than two dogs at once.

A typical day

I’m a Starbucks girl, so I usually like to take my dogs to get pup cups. lll ask you about your dog’s dietary restrictions before I give him or her one. I don’t have much time during my work week; but if I am sitting on the weekends, there is a dog park around the corner from my house that I go to sometimes. I also like to play fetch and tug of war if your dog likes those games as well. Sometimes I’ll kick a ball around to chase too. For my smaller pups, we usually just snuggle and watch tv. I’m no trainer, but if your dog doesn’t know sit yet I try to teach for fun.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Ranchaela can host up to 3 pets per night
It’s always good to know feeding schedule. I do give oral meds, so let me know that schedule as well. Also, does your dog need to be crated if I make a run to the store? I usually let my pups sleep with us in our bed but let me know if the crate is better. Is your dog anti-crate? Is it okay to give your dog treats outside of food? Are their any routines that will help make them feel more at home? I find that every dog has their own unique personality, so I like to have a conversation about your baby’s unique behaviors at first drop off or meet/greet.
