Pet care experience

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.

Thank you so much for watching Zena. I’m looking forward to work with you again. Raquel treats dogs as her own and genuinely loves them. Highly recommended! A+++
