Highlights
Pet care experience
If your pet needs play, you need me
I have years of experience raising and caring for dogs (Border collie, French Griffon, Beagle...), cats (Tabby, Korat...), goats (Nubian) and chickens. I am a distance runner (and certified personal trainer), and I loooove to run and romp with dogs... on the leash of course :) Pets and farm animals have not only been faithful companions in my life, but teachers and protectors. It is an understatement to say that I love them. I am tempted to share pages of stories about all the beloved animals in my life, but instead, I'll just quote Temple Grandin: "Animals make us human." I feel called to repay my animal friends for their gifts by providing them with compassionate care every chance I get, and I hope to meet and care for your special companion(s)!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Raphael is a perfect match for our rambunctious 4-1/2 month old puppy! We greatly appreciate Raphael's patience and skill will our little guy, and are thrilled to count Raphael among our puppy's extended family.
Raphael was a perfect playmate for our energetic 14-week old puppy! We’re lucky to have Raphael so close by in the neighborhood and look forward to having him care for our growing guy again.
Raphael took excellent care of my two chihuahuas and of my home! They got daily walks, treats, and pets, and my house looked as good (or better?) than I left it. When I got home from vacation, my next door neighbor even commented on how much attention my dogs were getting. I will definitely request him to dogsit in the future!
Raphael did a great job with Finn! Finn is an extremely high energy dog and Raphael made it clear, and proved, that he could handle him. He also gave me lots of updates. I would definitely contact Raphael to watch Finn again.
Our dogs (all four of them!) were well taken care of by Raphael. They can be a handful and he took great care of them. He was punctual, professional, and even brought in packages & mail for us while we were away from home. We are so glad to have found that he was available.
