Information Rafael M. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs ,how many dogs , for how long. , if they have any medical conditions , if their aggressive , and their triggers?

A typical day

Go for a nice jog followed with interval sprints until I get down to a nice baseball field near the dog park then play fetch for a while or I also like to walk through mclaren dog park since it’s right near my house and I know it very well so I like running through there or walking through depending on the dogs pace.

Rafael was amazing!! We had a fantastic experience with him taking care of our dog for a few days. He was an excellent communicator, always keeping us updated and putting our minds at ease. His kindness and professionalism really shone through, and we felt completely confident trusting him with our dog. Highly recommend! Thank you, Rafael!!

Great overall experience! I get worried when introducing a new person to my dog. We had no issues at all. Always on time and very respectful of my dogs demeanor. I will definitely use again.
