Raphael is amazing! I was nervous finding a dog sitter for one of our long-stay fosters, but after meeting Raphael, my nervousness was gone. He is a lovely young man who clearly has a love for and skill with handling large dogs. I also appreciate his responsiveness and care when setting up the meet and greet and handling all of the logistics. We have already booked a second stay for Tuttle and are looking forward to having our sweet boy visit with Raphael again very soon!

For the time that I have known Raphael, he is a loving, responsible, and respectful human and cares deeply for the life that surrounds him. He has been taking care of his dog, Beast, for almost his entire life. With his dog being a big part of him, he never goes a day without talking about him even in college. His love for animals goes above and beyond. With Rover, this gives him the ability to express his love as a pet caregiver and to take on the responsibilities that come natural to him. Some qualities that I admire about Raphael is that he is compassionate about what he does in life. He is also a reliable person that is there when you really need him. As there are many more qualities to describe him, Raphael has proven many people that he has the ability to take the deepest care for pets and to give them the extra love!
