Pet care experience

Peace of mind while you’re away!

Hi I’m Raquel ! I’ve been in a home of pet lovers and care takers my whole life! My mom is a dog groomer and I’ve handled and cuddled all dogs and cats of all sizes & have watched & learned to care for every ones extended families (fur babies)! With a small old dog of my own I’ve been able to experience a full spectrum of dog parenting and would love to take care of your pets so you can rest and relax knowing they’re in good hands :)

Safety, trust & environment

I live in in broadripple so I’m near dog park and we have lots of space with the Monon being a few steps away! Been very fortunate to also live in a complex with a park & plenty of space, my doggy is now 14 (ish) so her days look different than when she was a puppy. As far as my clients home I just try to stay as close I can to the routine of the animal and what’s “normal” for them and comforting them while owners are away. And maybe a few extra treats

Pets

A typical day

Lots of Monon walking !! And playing ball with the dog park near us :) cats prefer more snoozing / resting as I’ve noticed and each animal prefers a different type of attention I’ve learned!
