Availability
As we both work from home, your pets will get lots of care and attention throughout the day! Dogs 🐶: morning and evening walks, potty breaks, zoomies in the backyard if they’re full of energy — if weather permits — plus plenty of playtime and cuddles while we relax at home. We adapt to your dog’s personality and routine, and we’d love to know as much as possible about them so we can meet all their needs. Cats 🐱: Playtime, cuddles, and lots of attention while we’re home. We follow your cat’s personality and routine, and we’d love to know about any quirks or preferences to make their day extra happy.

Caring Couple for Your Pets 🐶🐱
Pet care experience
Hi! We’re Garrett and Paola — lifelong animal lovers based in the Avondale area. Together, we have 15 years of experience caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to guinea pigs and chinchillas. I cared for my dog until he sadly passed at 15, and Paola has cared for her dog since she was ten (he’s now 17 and living with family in her home country). We both have a deep love for pets and enjoy making them feel safe and cared for. Since we both work from home, your pet will get double the love, care, and attention! I’m an early riser, and Paola is a night owl, so between the two of us, they’ll practically get 24/7 care. We provide potty breaks every 3–5 hours, two 30-minute walks a day, plenty of playtime, and cuddles whenever your dog wants. We have a small backyard, and if the weather is nice, we can let your dog out to explore and burn off energy safely. We’re also happy to give medication as needed and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and routine. We love sending updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for :)

Reviews
Paola took great care of my high needs senior dog and my newly acclimating cat. She was very responsive and she gave frequent updates during my trip, including lots of cute pictures of the critters.
Paola and Garrett are such wonderful pet sitters! They’ve taken care of our dog Daisy a handful of times now and we highly recommend them!
Paola was so sweet and patient with my fur baby Bentley. It was Bentleys first time with a sitter Paola knew when to give him his space without being pushy. Thank you Paola for the last minute booking. I would definitely book again.
Paola did a fantastic job watching my dog, Luna! She was patient and kind, and provided me with photo updates during Luna's stay. I would most definitely book with Paola again!
