Rafael can care for
Availability
As I finish my final university semester this May, my schedule is extremely flexible. I’ve dedicated this month to local gig work, which means I am in the Long Beach area all day. This allows me to easily pivot to your pet’s needs, whether it’s a mid-day walk or a specific feeding window, ensuring they get consistent attention while you’re away from home.

About Rafael J.
Safety, trust & environment
I treat your home with the highest level of respect. This includes double checking that all doors and gates are securely locked when I arrive and leave, ensuring alarms are set correctly, and keeping the home exactly as I found it. My goal is to leave everything as I found it + a happy well-cared for pet :)
Information Rafael J. would like to know about your pet
- Commands & Training: What specific words or hand signals do you use with your pet(s)? - Leash Behavior: Does your pet tend to pull, or are they reactive to dogs, squirrels, bikes, cars, etc.? - Health & Safety: Please list any allergies, dietary restrictions, or medication schedules. Also inform me of any “triggers” like fear of loud noises or not being touched in certain areas. - Cat Hiding Spots: Where does your pet like to hide? This helps me check on them without adding stress to their situation. - Door & Gate Rules: Does your pet tend to fly through the door when it opens? - House Access & Emergency Contacts: Where should I park, how do I access the key/code, and who is your preferred veterinarian in case of an emergency?
A typical day
I believe in providing balanced fun that involves both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Whether it’s a high energy game of fetch at the park for a dog or a patient, focused play session with a feather toy for a shy cat, I adapt my energy to fit your pet’s personality.

Pet care experience
I have significant experience walking and managing large, high-energy breeds. I am very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, especially larger dogs that require a confident and steady hand on the leash. I’m physically active and enjoy taking dogs on long, brisk walks that truly tire them out.
