Pet care experience
Loving, reliable dog carer with 20 years of experi
I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind for the last 20 years, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Friends, neighbours, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, groom, and care for their pets as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve become confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, always focusing on making them feel safe, calm, and happy while you’re away. We also have one well-socialised dog, Tucci, who loves meeting new friends. As Rover users ourselves for the past two years, we know what makes a sitter stand out and how important it is to feel your pup is truly being cared for like family.

I felt nervous leaving Crumble for the first time but Raphaelle put me right at ease. It's clear she has had puppies before and she sent lots of pics so I could see he was having lots of fun. I didn't need to worry about the hot weather either, Crumble loved the paddling pool and splashing about with Tucci. Thanks again and love the frozen carrot trick for the teething! Will book again :)
Maxx had an amazing weekend with Raphy while we were away for a mini break. Raphy sent plenty of photo and video updates over the weekend and made sure that we got the updates we needed to feel like Maxx was having a good time. She took him out for plenty of walks, and he was knackered by the time we got him home. It showed he had a good time! Thank you Raphy for looking after our little man, we will be rebooking!
Raphy is a lover of all animals and is a fantastic dog sitter. Growing up with a dog, and as a dog mum herself, she loves nothing more than treating her dog Tucci like a prince and showering him with love, fun and affection. He is an amazing little dog because of the love and care Raphy has for him. She is caring, attentive, and will ensure that your dog is given the same amount of love and adoration as her own. She's a dog sitter you will be able to count on and someone who you will always be your first call for looking after your little furry friend.

Schedule
My partner and I work at the same company and split our office and home days, which means that, excluding Mondays, one of us is almost always home. This ensures your pup has company and care throughout the day. We’re also available for weekends and longer stays. We live near three large parks, perfect for walks, playtime, and plenty of sniffing adventures!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a secure, fenced garden and a cosy, dog-friendly home where pups can relax and feel safe. Tucci is friendly and welcoming, and we make careful introductions to ensure all dogs feel comfortable. Whether your dog stays with us or we care for them in your home, we’ll follow their routines closely, keep you updated, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. Crating is no problem if preferred, and dogs are never left unsupervised outside.
