Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets are family!
I was the driving force for my family to get a puppy and I was his primary caretaker along with my little sister for years. I worked hard to house train him and teach him basic commands. And before he came into our lives, I took every chance to walk and care for the dogs of my friends and family. Looking forward to expanding my experience with your pup!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
My own pup that I grew up with really trained ME to know when to go for walks and when to play. So much so, that I find myself taking him out before his scheduled walks so we can both get some fresh air and exercise. He also instilled a diligence to make sure food and fresh water are always available!
Ratings and reviews
I have known Rafiq his entire life and his love of cats and dogs is incredible. He is both gentle and stern when needed, but always respectful with them. He has had the chance to potty train pups and the number of walks he's been on are uncountable! Pups and kitties all seem relaxed and drawn to him and he is a fantastic caretaker for them. I’ve had him care for my cat and my dog on multiple occasions and have been impressed with his skill with them. My pup could be picky about who he would spend time with, but Rafiq had him under a spell, because I would have to remind my pup that he was mine and not Rafiq’s! I recommend Rafiq as a sitter without reservation!
