We are incredibly grateful to have found Dr Raf. His professionalism, knowledge, and experience are truly exceptional, and it's clear he genuinely cares about every animal he treats. He takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, answers all our questions with patience, and always makes us feel supported and reassured.
What stands out most is Dr Raf's kindness and the way he follows up to check on our cat's progress — it really shows his dedication goes beyond just the appointment. Our cat is usually very wary of strangers, but surprisingly feels comfortable around him, which speaks volumes about his gentle approach. Highly, highly recommended!
From Dr Raf:
Xue, thank you for such a lovely review. You're one of the most attentive and dedicated owners, it's a pleasure to work with you to help your beloved little cat. Kind regards, Dr Raf

I'd like to thank Dr Rafael — Bondi House Vet — who came to my place in Woolloomooloo to perform a peaceful euthanisation of my stunning 13 year old Rough Collie Dog Woollee. Dr Rafael was very calming even though it was the most painful time of my life saying goodbye to Woollee. But Woollee was so calm and peaceful — I had a feeling that he knew it was time for him to go. I will love and miss Woollee forever! Warren K.
From Dr Raf:
Warren, thank you for thinking of us and taking the time to write a review. I know how much you loved your beloved Woollee, and how well you cared for him. Sending you and Woollee much kindness, Dr Raf

Raf gave our 19 year old dog, Ruby, a gentle, dignified, love-filled death at home. I cannot thank him enough for how he helped Ruby and our family experience such a 'good death.' He explained every step, gave us space, and treated Ruby like his own. I cannot recommend Raf's care and professionalism highly enough.

Dr Rafa is the number one house vet without a doubt. He's extremely caring, gentle and professional. On his return visit to check up on our cat Tino, even Tino was happy to see him!

My anxious border collie & Ragdoll cat have only ever been to a vet clinic once for spaying. Every other health concern & annual vaccinations / health checks have been done by Dr Raf in the comfort of our home. This benefits my pets enormously. Why put anxious pets through the trauma of a clinic waiting room & risk catching an illness when it's avoidable? There's no 15 minute time limit. All questions are professionally answered. I can't recommend Dr Raf & his impressively stocked van highly enough.
From Dr Raf:
Josie, thanks for the lovely review, very kind. Thanks for helping me park the van also :) Regards, Dr Raf

Dr Raf is the first vet ever that my tabby cat has ever let get near him, not to mention get through a full appointment without having a total freak out. He was patient, thorough, gentle and explained everything really clearly. Both my cats were well taken care of and I appreciated some of the tips and ideas too. I highly recommend Dr Raf and look forward to my cats having many more visits with him.

Dr. Raf is absolutely perfect for my 17 year-old Burmese cat. From the moment he arrived, she was calm and comfortable around him — something quite rare for her! We were able to carry out everything we'd typically do at a vet clinic, but in the comfort and familiarity of our own home. Dr. Raf is professional, kind, and takes the time to provide clear, detailed explanations. I highly recommend his services!

I cannot recommend Dr. Raf highly enough. As the owner of two Poms — one anxious and one cheeky — finding the right vet has always been a challenge until we met Dr. Raf. He is kind, compassionate, and incredibly patient, answering my calls at all different hours of the day.
What truly sets Dr. Raf apart is his honesty and integrity. He never recommends unnecessary treatments or procedures, and you can genuinely tell that his primary concern is the wellbeing of my dogs. Having him come to our home has made a world of difference and for that, I'm incredibly grateful.

Dr Raph is brilliant. My cat is 19 so wanted a baseline ageing assessment and introduction for future palliative care if needed.

I am absolutely blown away by our wonderful experience with Dr Raf today when my lovely old cat Oscar crossed the rainbow bridge. I did a telephone consultation with Dr Raf beforehand about how to get him very calm beforehand. When Dr Raf arrived, he was incredibly gentle and kind and treated my boy with the most tender manner. My cat had the best send off I could have possibly asked for — I felt so supported and comforted. I could not recommend Dr Raf highly enough for anyone who needs this service for their beloved pet to pass away at home.

Dr Raf slowly assisted my boy through a process of reducing the pain, relaxing him, and waited while I read a beautiful poem before my hand felt his last heartbeat. A compassionate, caring young man who treated my Chuck with kindness and the appropriate farewell. He listened to my heartbreaking babble through tears and patiently treated us like the only people in his day. A follow up call the next day offering more support was unexpected but appreciated. Dr Raf is the 'saint' you need when going through this very emotional, heartbreaking loss.

Dr Raf is an extremely compassionate man who clearly has a deep love of animals. We were devastated to find out that our beautiful dog Pammi was very ill and wouldn't recover. She always hated going to the vet so we wanted her to pass at home with us. Dr Raf came out to assess her, and he treated her with such kindness. He gave us all the time and space we needed to say our goodbyes and never tried to rush us. Thanks to Dr Raf we were able to send our girl to heaven peacefully in our arms. This has brought us immense comfort as we navigate our way through our grief. Thank you Dr Raf for treating our girl with such dignity, respect and love.

We appreciate what you did for us.

My indoor cat returned after nearly 4 months outside (via a trap). She had cuts on her face, had lost weight and was terrified.

Amazing, caring service for your pet. So refreshing to know a wonderful vet like Rafael who'll take time to give carefully considered advice & treatment.

Rafael was fantastic when dealing with our senior dog Sunny, who had been bitten by another dog. He arrived in 30 mins on a Saturday evening. He was able to staple the wound, prescribe antibiotics which he had on hand, and gave clear instructions for care. He also did a full health check of general well-being and his heart murmur. Sunny is 16 years old and responded really well to Rafael. I really appreciated his thoroughness and follow up.
From Dr Raf:
Paula, thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review. It was an honour to help out, and glad it all healed up nicely.

I've not used a mobile vet before and I'm glad I tried this option as I can't recommend Raf enough. Having two cats it was great to have someone come to them rather than put them through the stress of travel and the noisy vets. We had a general checkup for them and booster shots done — Raf brought everything with him and was so good with them. The convenience of having a vet come to you is brilliant, especially for those of us that don't own a car. Highly recommend!
From Dr Raf:
Marie, thank you so much! Very kind, really appreciate your gratitude and kind words :))

Rafael provides a very thorough, unrushed service to your pet. He genuinely cares about what he does and he will return your calls quickly, even if he's busy. Very reasonable prices too. Can't recommend him enough!
From Dr Raf:
Thanks Tess!! Really appreciate it.

Dr. Rafael goes above and beyond. He is very caring, friendly and professional. He went out of his way to help us with our little kitten Lily on a late Friday evening. He is also very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend his services!
From Dr Raf:
Thank you D, very kind, and much appreciated. The photo you posted of little Lily is just too cute!! 😭💛

Bondi House Vet is an incredible service and I cannot recommend Dr Rafael Dye enough. He is the most spectacular vet we've ever seen and you can tell he has a genuine passion for what he does. He is excellent at diagnosing the problem and every issue we've had with our dog has been solved by the treatments he prescribes. Long story short, you and your pet are in good hands!
From Dr Raf:
Kiersten, thank you! I haven't stopped smiling since I first read this. Now I have to keep living up to this 😉

Dr Rafael provides a very professional service. The vet was able to diagnose my small Chihuahua right away without any complications, and helped with his sore foot. I loved the way that he treated my pet and asked questions about his general health. I would highly recommend his services as I was very pleased with the experience.
From Dr Raf:
Thanks Liela, very kind. And thanks also for the referrals.
