Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we both work from home. Our flexible schedules allow us to provide consistent supervision, regular walks, playtime, enrichment, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. We tailor each pet's routine to their individual needs so they feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you're away. We also have a young Labrador puppy who is fully housebroken, friendly with other dogs, well socialized, and has recently begun service dog training. Since we now have a dog of our own, we take turns with her care so we're able to give our Rover guests the attention they deserve. She will only interact with your pet if you'd like your dog to have a playmate during their stay. Otherwise, she'll remain separate so your pet receives our full attention and the experience you're most comfortable with.

About Raquel K.
Communication

Safety, trust & environment
We provide attentive, personalized care for every pet, ensuring they are always safe, comfortable, and in a secure environment. Being present and observant prevents mistakes and keeps pets happy, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Care includes structured enrichment, training, and mental stimulation tailored to each pet’s needs. During longer stays, when my husband has the day off, we work as a team to provide attentive supervision, enrichment, and gentle training, while maintaining privacy, discretion, and home security. Owners can enjoy peace of mind with thoughtful updates, including photos and videos, shared according to their preferences.

Information Raquel K. would like to know about your pet
Please share any dietary restrictions, medical needs, allergies, or behavioral considerations for your pets. I have experience with specialized diets, including raw, grain-free, vegan, or prescription-based, and can follow strict feeding instructions, including weighed or portioned meals and treat limits. For in-home stays, I request a meet-and-greet or home walkthrough to review routines, security systems, and any special instructions, ensuring I am fully prepared to care for your pets and maintain your home’s privacy and security. If you’d like to meet my husband as well, please let me know in advance and we can coordinate schedules.
A typical day
We focus on keeping dogs happy, active, and comfortable throughout the day. Depending on their energy and preferences, this may include walks, hikes, backyard games like fetch or frisbee, and gentle indoor play. Each activity is paced to ensure a balanced day of fun, exercise, and rest, tailored to your neighborhood, home, and any personal requests you have.

Pet care experience
✨ 2026 Update: We're Back! ✨ We're excited to be welcoming clients back! Since adding our Labrador puppy to the family, we've taken some time to focus on her training and development. Now that she's 6 months old, we're happy to be reopening our calendar to care for your fur babies. 🐾 Because our puppy is still young, there may be times when Andrew takes the lead on bookings while I stay home with her. We're very much a team, and for overnight stays, Andrew is also available and happy to stay with your pets if needed. We believe in being transparent and want every client to feel completely comfortable with who is caring for their pets, which is why we love scheduling meet-and-greets so you can get to know us both. If your pet is more comfortable with a female caregiver, we're happy to accommodate that whenever possible. Our Labrador is fully housebroken, friendly with other dogs, well socialized, and has recently begun service dog training. If you'd like your pup to enjoy some supervised playtime or socialization with her during their stay, just let us know! We also completely respect if you'd prefer care focused solely on your pet. We are not afraid of a homestead or light home care needs alongside your pet's stay. 🐔 🥦🍅🏡✨ We look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 Raquel & Andrew Karnes
Reviews

Very great communication and took good care of our dog when we were away! Left the home in clean condition when we returned.

Raquel and Andrew were wonderful! They went above and beyond to ensure our dog was well taken care of. They communicated often, followed Cheo's typical schedule and spent a lot of time with him. I was very pleased to come home to a happy, healthy dog and a clean house! They took care of the garbage and recycling, bedding and dishes!

Raquel followed instructions, was a great communicator and kept us updated on our pup the whole time we were gone. She left the house clean and I can tell she genuinely loves being with dogs! Will definitely book her again.

100% recommend. Raquel is amazing. I will call her again for sure. She sent me pictures and videos constantly. I can tell that my baby is super happy. Reliable and responsible. I can’t thank her enough.
