A typical day

A typical day with your pets will be filled with fun and lots of attention! ? We’ll start with a morning walk or play session, depending on their mood. After that, they can enjoy some quiet time or a nap ?. Throughout the day, we’ll have plenty of playtime with their favorite toys, and if they enjoy car rides, we might go on a little adventure ?! Cuddles and belly rubs are always on the agenda, too. I’ll make sure to stick to their feeding routine and administer any medications ?.

Diggity had an absolute blast staying with Raquel and her family while I was away. He got to do his favorite things (fetch! snuggle!) and was clearly at ease. Raquel made the process easy with a meet/greet prior, daily check-ins with photos, and quick responses any time I reached out. I truly appreciated working with her and am very grateful she and her family could care for Diggity after our original caretaker had to back out unexpectedly. Thank you!

We cannot recommend Raquel highly enough! This was our first time using Rover for an overnight stay and we were naturally a bit nervous—especially since our pup is usually very anxious and has some extra medical needs. Raquel was absolutely phenomenal and completely put us at ease. She took such great care of him, made sure he got plenty of exercise, and stuck to his regular medication schedule. Best of all, she sent us regular updates with photos and videos so we could see he was doing well. Our dog was in excellent hands and we will definitely be rebooking with Raquel in the future!

Raquel and her family took great care of our dog for two long weeks. She was very responsive, shared pictures and updates, and my dog was always in the best care. I highly recommend!

I booked extremely last minute, literally the day of, on a holiday weekend, and Raquel was still able to make it work. She has such a high standard for taking care of my 2 kitties. She goes above and beyond, and even out of her way, to make sure they are properly cared for. The absolute best sitter, hands down, no question.
