Pet care experience

Enthusiastic and friendly pet lover

I am an adventurous outdoor-enthusiast that loves heading out to the trails. If you need an assistant that loves caring for dogs and cats, you have come to the right page! I have fostered a dog before named Opal, had a dog of my own named Riley, and currently have a cat named Sebastian and he is 2 years old. I would love to adopt a dog in the future but for now so happy to take care of other wonderful pups! Just came back from Alaska and looking for some seasonal outdoor exposure. I would love to continue an active lifestyle so what's better than meeting new furry friends!? I am really excited for this new opportunity to work with you!

House Sitting • Dec 06, 2019

Raquel was the perfect dogsitter. She watched my two dogs over a holiday while I was out of town, and she went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of. She took them on extra long walks and sent lots of updates and photos so I always knew how they were doing. I didn't have a single worry

Dear dog owners, Raquel is the happiest when therr are dogs around. She is full of love and gives so much of it to our furry friends. I lived with raquel over the summer and everyday she made sure to give all the dogs in our life affection and attention. She has a great attitude and works really hard. Very trustworthy and a strong person. I highly recommend her!

Raquel is the most comparing, compassionate person I’ve ever met and has a deep appreciation for all animals. She takes time to make sure all of your pet’s needs are accounted for and focuses on building a healthy relationship with every pet and person. No matter if it’s a dog, kitten, hamster or goldfish, Raquel will care for them with a kind heart and a big smile.

Raquel loves dogs! She is dependable and professional. My tiny chihuahua does not take kindly to strangers, but Raquel was both patient and firm with her. They are now great friends and every time my pup sees Raquel she wags her tail.

Raquel is an amazing, compassionate person with a passion for adventure. She is a huge animal rights activist and has experience fostering dogs with a rescue back home called ePITome. I’ve known her for years and have worked with her on more than one job. She’s a hard worker and is caring for others.

I am interested in being aware of any behaviors issues, philosophy on training, any health issues, and how your pet interacts with other dogs or people.
