Pet care experience

Gentle Care and happy walks

What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my calm, patient, and gentle approach to each dog. I pay close attention to their body language, needs, and comfort. I'm especially good with puppies who need gentle guidance and basic training, as well as with older dogs who require more leisurely walks, extra care, and a loving, comforting presence. I treat every pet as if it were my own, with the same kindness, respect, and affection I would want for my own.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Within my family, three of them are a furry friend named Balu who is 7 years old, a cat named Copito who is 6 years old, and a kitten named Lucas who is 5 years old. I am used to taking care of them and keeping them under constant supervision, not only in their diet but also in their physical and emotional well-being.

Raquel did a fabulous job with our dog while we were away for 5 days. She took her for long walks and took extra care to make sure she was safe and sound. She communicates very well even with English as a second language. We found no barriers to communication. We would love to have her care for our pup again.

Raquel was amazing with our high energy dog! She was friendly, detail oriented, asked lots of questions at our meet and greet, reached out if she had any questions or concerns during her stay, shared photos while we were away, and took great care of our fur baby and our home. I highly recommend Raquel if you need a top-notch dog sitter!

Raquel took care of our recent rescue, Mocha, for the first time and it went great! Mocha can be wary of new people, but Raquel was very patient with her and made her feel at ease. Raquel is a great and proactive communicator which made me comfortable as well. She followed all instructions and sent frequent updates/pictures. We are already looking to set up our next booking with Raquel!

This was our first time using Raquel and all went great. Our dog is extremely shy and literally hid from her for a little while. 😂 Raquel was not put off by him at all and she won him over! She provided a lot of updates and pictures while we were away. She did a great job.

I recently moved and have free time since I have online classes during the week on alternate schedules, so I have time to play with your little ones and shower them with warmth and attention.

It’s important for me to know if your pet has any special needs, medical conditions, allergies, or behavioral traits. I also appreciate information about feeding schedules, energy levels, and preferences so I can provide safe, personalized, and loving care.
