Pet care experience

Dogs are family!

Hi! My name is Raquel. I’m a working professional. I love dogs and all animals. I most recently had a 10 year old shih-poo, Mocha, who I had to put down back in April due to several episodes of congestive heart failure. I had him since he was 2 months old and he brought me so many moments of happiness! I have since then fostered puppies and dogs with a local organization. Each experience is unique as each dog has their own personality! I find joy in getting to know them and caring for them, even if for a short while. I understand caring for your beloved pet requires patience, attention, and passion. I look forward to caring for your pet in the same way!

If Raquel isn't your number one go to sitter, she should be! I only had my dogs watched by one other person and the difference in quality was night and day. I don't like the idea of doggy hotels or any type of multiple dog boarding because I hate having my dogs feel like they're being put up for adoption (I'm sure they don't, but still). Raquel was so welcoming. Her home was clean and comfortable. My dogs quickly loved her. And best of all.. no other dogs! It was like having family watch my fur babies. She was very friendly and professional. I will definitely book her for any future trips.

Excellent service. My dog was so happy there and well taken care of. Would absolutely request her service again.

Raquel es la mejore cuidadora de perros que conozco. Es amante de los perros, muy cariñosa y responsable. Durante años cuidó muy bien de su perro Mocha, proporcionándole todos los cuidados necesarios y siempre preocupándose por él como si fuera un hijo. Durante los últimos meses ha estado cuidando de algunos cachorros, lo que demuestra su gran amor hacia los perros y su gran capacidad para cuidarlos.

Raquel is a great fit to become a dog sitter! She was a dog mom for about 10 years to Mocha, one of the nicest, sassiest shi-poodles ever! You could tell that Mocha loved his mom because Raquel took real good care of him. When Mocha passed away, Raquel was devastated, but that didn’t stop her from becoming one of the best Foster moms to five puppies so far, she gave of her time, energy and financial resources to care for those puppies. I believe Raquel will excel as a dog caregiver because she loves dogs and they love her back!
