Hi I’m Raquel, your pups new bff:)
Pet care experience
I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 and have had multiple dogs/pets since I was little ! Neighbors and friends have also had me watch their pups when they went on vacation ranging from small dogs to bigger with a variety of breeds. I also worked at Dogtopia where I was constantly exposed to the dogs environment and through my job learned a lot of skills for taking care of them:) Through sitting and drop in visits I have worked with feeding schedules, bathing, medications and always have my phone on me so I am easy to reach .

Raquel was so sweet and communicative. She came over to meet my pup and he instantly loved her. She provided lots of great feedback and made me feel at ease. Definitely will be using again ?❣️
Raquel is an incredibly responsible pet-loving person. She has worked in the dog care industry professionally, so she has had extensive training working with dogs and their human family members. She knows your pet is a member of your family and will treat them as such. She has a fun and pleasant attitude that pets sense. Everytime she enters my home, she reaches down to greet my senior special needs Jack Russell. She is always compassionate and loving toward him. She comes from a family who has rescued dogs, so she really understands what a continent it is to be a responsible pet care taker. I wholeheartedly trust her— even to care for my little human. :)
Raquel is a wonderful soul! I had a pleasure of being her manager at a Doggie daycare! She is so sweet and kind. I believe this job would be so great for her. She would love your pet like her own.

Safety, trust & environment
For my home we have a gated perimeter and do our best to remove any objects or items that my dog would be interested in getting a hold of . Due to my last job I have acquired many skills on how to handle situations such as any dogs getting in conflicts, crating, knowing signs of discomfort or excitement, etc. I also did a great amount of online training for that job that allowed me to learn more in depth knowledge to understand what they may be wanting to communicate.
Information Raquel L. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any special needs conditions to know about, or if there are any specific triggers that may invoke certain behaviors:)
A typical day
I love to take them on long walks and go play in the parks if allowed by parents ! I have many nice spots that I personally take my pup that are very good for outdoor play!
