Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog Father of 2, Walker since 15
I have walked all kinds of dogs since I was 15. I started with Pitbulls in my neighborhood and walked all sizes since then. I went on to adopt a dog 10 years ago and now live with my fiancé who brought her own dog into our home. I will always be a dog father for the rest of my life and truly value what they mean to someone as a pet/partner and in some cases -child.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Raul Ariel has been so reliable and communicative. Took extra steps to make sure my dog’s needs were met.
Raul is a deeply attentive, compassionate, and responsable pet caregiver. He anticipates each pet’s needs before they come and gives them whatever special attention they need!!
I've watched Raul for many years be a dog dad to his own dogs, and he treats them with real care and patience. They're happy, healthy and clearly adore him. He's reliable, attentive and genuinely loves animals. I'd trust him with any pet. And as a Testament to Raul, he is polite, thoughtful, incredibly organized and always pays attention to the people and animals around him. He's warm and caring by nature, and you can count on him to follow through on what he says. Anyone who meets him can testify to this.
Raul is the most caring dog dad and often puts his dogs needs over his own. He gets up every day and immediately walks the dogs and feeds them breakfast and plays with them in the morning. He’s really good at reading their body language and cues and can tell when they’re hungry, bored, and ready to go on a walk. Raul is also really disciplined with sticking to a routine and can adapt to what the dog needs - whether that’s long walks in the morning and afternoon or multiple quick walks throughout the day, he always makes sure his dogs are happy and relaxed when they’re home.

Schedule
I already walk my dog 3 times a day so pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Currently dog walking is my only profession as I look for work so I am completely open to accommodate any scheduling requests.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Having walked many different types of dogs throughout my life, I know that each dog has different personalities and needs that must be accommodated for. Each pet has its own routine that helps make sure they are happy and healthy. One of my dogs is very good at communicating when he needs to go outside, and I can read his cues and take him out for multiple walks in quick succession. Another one of my dogs is much more of a habit former and appreciates a longer walk that tires him out and gets all his energy out of his system. I constantly check on them both emotionally and physically to make sure there are no problems with their habits or their physical bodies. I always like to make sure the dogs I take care of get to spend quality time with me either at my home or at the client's home to help relax them after or before a long walk. I never leave the house without checking they have food and water readily available, and a treat to make sure they're feeling loved and cared for.
Pets
A typical day
I love to throw my dogs toy for hours on end as much as he asks me to. I always want to make sure he gets all his energy out! If they enjoy dog parks or just throwing a ball around I will always make the time to entertain them and make their day.
