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 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

Raquel is so passionate about her job. She loves taking care of Sophie. She helped me so much this week with Sophie as I lost my sister. I never worry when Sophie is with her.

Raquel was fantastic, we'll definitely use her services again. My dogs left happy, in fact one of them turned again and wanted to stay.

Our dogs stay with Raquel was great! She was fantastic with communication and pictures through his stay. She was also flexible with drop off/pick times and we felt she prioritized making our dog feel comfortable. Will use again when in the area!

I dropped my dog, Dingo, off at doggy daycare for the first time and Raquel was amazing! It was a great experience, it made me feel at ease with all the updates and pictures as a first time dog mom! I already have her booked again! He loved it! I recommend her for your furry families! :)

Schedule

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.
