Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog loving home w/large fenced yard
I have a love for animals in particular dogs. I have had big and small dogs all of my life. I have a big home with a large fenced yard and lots of play spaces for dogs who prefer privacy. All dogs sleep inside where I have baby gates and lots of fun areas . I have experience with nervousness and shelter dogs. All first time clients receive a free hand made doggy bandana and all of the proceeds from your tips go to the “Race for Autism 2027"
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Raquel could not have been a better fit for my dog. I explained that my fur baby is anxious and protective, and doesn’t always get along with smaller dogs. Raquel said, not a problem and over the course of several weeks I got to witness pictures of my girl coming out of her shell, making friends with humans and small dogs, and looking so relaxed. I highly recommend this sitter. She has an assortment of amusements to keep the boarding dogs occupied and enriched. She provides each dog, its own space and personal attention when outdoors. I will definitely book Raquel again and share her information with my friends who have precious fur babies.
At first, I was nervous leaving my anxious pup for a few days because she’s not very social. However, Raquel and her family took such great care of my Kogie. I was provided with daily updates and photos. She was well behaved and didn’t show any signs of anxiety that she usually does. I was surprised, relieved, and appreciative of how well they took care of her. I would book with her again.
Raquel remains our go-to doggy daycare when we’re out of town. She sends great photos and updates. Our dog is very comfortable there. She is a great communicator as well.
My dog Henry had an amazing stay with Raquel! It was the first time in a few years that I left him for an extended stay, so I was a little nervous. Henry ended up doing great! Raquel made me feel totally at ease with her daily updates.
Raquel and her family always do a phenomenal job when caring for my boys. I always feel completely at ease knowing they’re in such caring and trustworthy hands. I’m so grateful to have found them and would absolutely recommend Raquel to anyone looking for a wonderful, dependable sitter!
raquel was amazing!!! she watched our two pups while we were on vacation and sent us daily updates and photos. they seemed so happy, and it was so nice not to worry about them. she even bathed them and washed their blanket before we picked them up. i won’t hesitate to reach out to her again when we need a sitter!!

Pets
A typical day
I have lots of toys and shaded fenced back yard as well as a large grassy front yard that dogs can explore. The front yard has green grass and trees. We have doggy pool days, movie nights and bubble parties. I have special music to calm puppies during nap time and at night as well. We do daily photo sessions during treat training time . Please see my daily schedule for reference. We only take 3-4 pups per night, each pup sleeps in a bedroom and gets individual attention. I have very limited availability for meet and greets due to a high demand in request for boarding. Please read my reviews and see my profile pictures, all pictures are of my home.

- Let me know if your dog has any specific needs or allergies, separation anxiety, is reactive to other pups . My back yard is free of grass for any dogs that are allergic. Also let me know if your dog is social with other dogs or prefers their own space. Our home is very spacious and each room has baby gates, tell me any personality traits to help us better understand your fur baby.
