Pet care experience

Happiness is a warm puppy

My experience in Pet Care is from having my own homeless animal shelter located in South America. I have experience healing animals physically and emotionally. I am a certified first aid professional for dogs, cats and birds. I love them all, from tiny ones to gentle giants. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets in your absence. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies!

Raquel did a great job with sending daily updates and pictures while we were away on vacation over a week! Thank you again for all of your help with my sweet boy.

Dingo had an absolute blast with Raquel while I was on vacation! I got multiple updates throughout the day and he was super happy when I picked him up. I would absolutely let Dingo stay here for daycare and boarding anytime!

Raquel took such good care of our two dogs. They are rescues who need extra attention and lots of human contact. She made an effort to get to know our dogs and they had such a positive experience in her care. We’re excited to book her services again in the near future. Thank you, Raquel

I am fully available, every day of the week I have my schedule ready to welcome a new four-legged angel. My service includes personalized care since I do not accept more than three pets at a time. I'm very dedicated and professional. You will receive updated photos throughout the day of what your pet is doing. I have a large fenced backyard for your pet to sunbathe, smell flowers, and relax. Your pet can take a nap in my own bed or in a dedicated bed in the house for your four-legged child.

A typical day

In the mornings I will wake up with your pet and we will go to the backyard so she/he can sunbathe and do their business. After a relaxing morning, they will have breakfast with fresh water and relax in the house. Afterwards, we will go back to the backyard to play. They will exercise their sense of smell as they will smell the plants, flowers, and different smells in my garden. After this, they will rest and be pampered until it is time for them to sleep. During the day you will receive multiple photos and updates of your four-legged baby. FEEDING TIME: I make sure to feed all of our angels separately, in separate spaces.
