Calm, attentive, reliable dog lover
Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of dogs all my life and love their sweet nature and companionship. I have a calm demeanor that dogs pick up on, and I love walking, playing, and cuddling with pups of all breeds and sizes. I have experience with all ages — from puppies to older dogs, I’ll take great care of your fur baby!
Reviews
Rafiq did a great job caring for my dog Sid when we were away for 3 nights. Sid is a senior dog with some special needs and Rafiq handled that perfectly. He house sat in our home and took great care of our home as well. We will definitely work with him again.
10/10. The Best! Highly recommend!
Rafiq took such good care of our dog Moose while we were out of town! He was willing to stay over at our home with Moose while we were away and left our apartment in perfect condition. Rafiq provided detailed and sweet updates about Moose with pictures throughout each day that were very reassuring to us. He took all of our concerns and instructions seriously and made it easy to enjoy our vacation without worrying about Moose. We will be using Rafiq again for dog sitting in the future!
Rafiq was amazing! He watched our pups at our house while we were out of town and we had absolute peace of mind the whole time knowing they were in great hands. He is a excellent communicator and sent multiple daily updates/pics. 10/10 will use again!!

Safety, trust & environment
I’m a thoughtful person that will respect your space and will confirm and double check instructions with you before each visit, including scheduling meet-and-greets. I’m quick to respond and will treat your dog with lots of love and care! If I’m walking your dog, I’ll find a good route around your neighborhood and will generally walk them for 30-35 minutes so they can let their energy out and do their doggy business. I’ll grab some great photo ops with them too! I offer full service for overnight visits, including walks, backyard hangs, couch cuddles, grabbing your mail, and watering your plants. I’ll send text and photo updates 2-3 times a day so you can feel relaxed and reassured that your dogs are in good hands while you’re gone!
Information Rafiq E. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there are any special instructions, medication, or things I should know before I walk or spend time with your dog. I’m happy to do what’s needed to keep your pup happy!
A typical day
I love exercising with dogs, whether that means a walk around the neighborhood or heading to the park to enjoy some fresh sights and sounds. I’m also a big cuddler, so if staying inside and playing is your dog’s love language, I’m happy to do that as well! If I’m staying overnight with your pup, we’ll go on a nice walk, cuddle on the couch (if permitted!), and spend a quiet, relaxing night together.

Availability
I was unfortunately recently laid off from my job, so I have plenty of time to play and tend to your pups! I’m available any time of day to take care of your dogs, including overnight sitting.
