Services
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.
Cat care experience
Rafael also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
