Availability
I have a flexible work schedule with remote days, which means I’m able to be present, attentive, and consistent—something I know matters a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. During sittings, I naturally take frequent breaks to walk around the neighborhood, so your pup will get plenty of outdoor time for potty breaks, fresh air, and little adventures throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment
I know choosing a sitter isn’t just about availability—it’s about trust. You want someone who: * Communicates clearly and keeps you updated (yes, expect pics 🐶📸) * Pays attention to the little details that keep your dog comfortable * Respects your home and your routine * And genuinely cares—not just about doing the job, but about your dog feeling safe, happy, and loved

Information Raquel N. would like to know about your pet
To make sure your pup has the best possible experience, I like to learn a little about their needs and routine: * Is your dog spayed or neutered? * Does your dog have any medical conditions (arthritis, allergies, or special needs)? * Are there any specific routines, preferences, or behaviors I should know about? Please feel free to share anything that will help me care for your dog in the way they’re used to. The more I know, the better I can create a safe, comfortable, and “home away from home” experience for them. And of course—don’t hesitate to ask me any questions too! I want you to feel just as confident and comfortable as your pup will be 💛
A typical day
Your pup’s day is designed to feel structured, active, and full of love—just like they deserve. We start the morning with breakfast followed by a nice, long walk to get those early zoomies out and set the tone for the day. In the afternoon, we ease into playtime and enrichment, with treats as needed (and always aligned with your preferences). Think toys, engagement, and quality one-on-one attention—not just “passing time.” Midday includes another long walk or outdoor break, and if you’re comfortable, we can mix in park visits or social time for extra stimulation and fun. As the day winds down, your pup gets dinner followed by an evening walk, giving them a calm, satisfying end to the day. Throughout the day, I build in plenty of outdoor time, fresh air, and little adventures, especially since I naturally take breaks to step out and move around—your dog benefits from that rhythm. I also make sure to keep your space clean, organized, and dog-friendly during my stay. Most importantly, I’m big on customization—I always welcome your input and will tailor activities based on what your dog actually enjoys, whether that’s long walks, play sessions, or just being a cozy companion.

In-Home Dog Sitting 🐾
Pet care experience
After some time away, I’m excited to be back on Rover in a new city and ready to meet some amazing furry clients (and their humans too!). I’m here to create a seamless, stress-free experience for both you and your dog—right in the comfort of your own home. I know that as a dog parent, safety, consistency, and trust are everything, and I take that responsibility seriously. During my stay, your pup will remain in their familiar environment, keeping their routine as normal as possible. I provide attentive supervision, plenty of companionship, and thoughtful care throughout the day. Your dog will enjoy: * Regular walks and potty breaks tailored to their needs * Playtime and enrichment, including toys and interactive activities * Outdoor time and fresh air, with neighborhood walks and nearby park visits (weather permitting) * A calm, clean, and well-maintained home environment while you’re away I’m mindful of boundaries and preferences—no dog parks or off-leash activities unless explicitly approved by you. Every dog is different, so I always welcome guidance on routines, behaviors, and anything that helps your pup feel most at ease. My goal is to make your absence feel as easy and comfortable as possible for them.
Reviews
Raquel always takes amazing care of Penelope and provides me with updates regularly throughout.
Raquel is great with Penelope and sends me a to. Of cute videos and pictures! My dog loves her and it gives me peace of mind while I’m away.
Raquel was a pleasure sitting my pup. Great communication with sending daily pictures, videos, and updates. I will book again!
Raquel was wonderful. She was super easy to communicate with and was perfectly on time for everything. We will be delighted to have her take care of our dog in the future.
