“Paulina has done a great job of taking care of my babies while I’m away at work. My pups love her and I couldn't be more pleased with the level of care and professionalism provided. She communicates effectively, always letting me know how the walk went with updates and pictures. She goes above and beyond to ensure my dogs are safe and well-cared for. It's such a relief to know that my dogs are in good hands when I'm not around. I wholeheartedly recommend Paulina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. Your dog will love her just as much as mine do!”


About: I am a former vet assistant and dog handler who has worled with a wide range of pets. I am experienced with both puppies and senior dogs as well as dogs with complex needs and behavioral issues. I am able to administer a variety of medications including insulin. I can also handle dogs who have severe arthritis, mobility issues, seizures, etc. There is very few things I have not seen, and for every new situation I encounter I consider myself to be a quick learner. I believe that all pets are deserving of my maximum effort no matter what. I am a college student with a very flexible schedule. If your pet requires around the clock care, consider me available. I do have pets of my own, but I have been responsible for over a hundred dogs at once in the past. I will be absolutely be able to fit your pet into my schedule. When it comes to my own pets, I am very regimented. I own two cats and a dog, and one of my cats has high support needs. They are all rescues. I feed my animals twice a day as well as administer any medications they might need. I take my dog on frequent walks on the trails surrounding my neighborhood and play with him and my cats often. For others' pets, I treat them as if they were my own. Even if they aren't my client, I always look out for animals in need. I carry an emergency slip lead with me in my bag in case I find a lost dog, as well as treats and a squeaky toy. I know all pets have their own individual needs, so I try to be prepared for anything and everything.

About: I am very experienced in pet care. I have always had a love for animals. Whether your pet requires special care and or has special needs. I provide the upmost care for any pet. I also do some grooming on the side and or just a simple bath or clipping of the nails. Any other pets that I have watched, I care for them as if they were my own. I always make sure they have clean water. I will always make sure that they are fed on schedule. I take them for walks frequently which is usually every hour. Your pet will be returned bathed and clean. You can count on me to take care of your pet. I am reliable and attentive. I hope that I can help you with your pets with whatever they may need. If you book with me or are thinking about booking with me, I do ask a lot of questions, only because of the safety of your pets and mine. I do want plenty of communication. Whether if you have any questions or if I do. THANK YOU :) I work weekdays and off every weekend. I get an hour lunch break so I walk all my boards during my break. I am usually off work by 5ish. I treat every board and drop in as if they were my own pet. I always try to make sure that your pet is as comfortable as possible. I tend to spoil my boards and/or my drop ins. I do not discriminate against any breed. I love them all equally.
