Trusted Care: 36+ Five-Star Reviews
I bring over 12 years of hands-on pet care experience and have cared for 50+ animals, including horses, bunnies, turtles, chickens, dogs, cats, goats, and reptiles. My background includes rescue dogs, seniors, puppies, anxious pets, and multi-pet households. Raised around a family-run rescue shelter in Colombia, I developed early awareness of behavioral sensitivity and trauma-informed handling. I understand how to support reactive dogs, pets adjusting to new environments, and animals deeply attached to their routines. I’m confident with structured walks, medication administration, feeding schedules, and maintaining consistency — because routine creates safety. I work comfortably with high-energy breeds who need firm structure as well as senior dogs who require patience and gentle pacing. Safety, emotional regulation, and calm leadership guide everything I do. With 36+ five-star reviews, I’ve built a reputation for reliability, attentiveness, and creating environments where pets feel secure and balanced. Animals respond quickly to steady, grounded presence — and that’s exactly what I provide.

Paula (aka Maria) was excellent! Another sitter that I had booked months ago for a trip out of the country cancelled at the last minute (2 weeks before departure) and that's when I found Paula. She came for a meet and greet, asked all the right questions and we agreed we were a great fit. She took exceptionally great care of my home and my pup while I was away. She updated me daily with pictures, took care of getting the mail, watching the pool water levels and all the little things that needed attention while I was away...including making sure I had enough food for my pup when I got back. She made sure the house was left "better than she found it", something not all sitters do. I am most grateful for the peace of mind I had while away.
Really appreciated how Paula exhausted my pooch! Wasn’t sure if my (typical) ball-of-fire was going to make it up the drive, when they arrived home. We (both) slept like rocks that night!
Paula is always a joy. White and Snow absolutely love her and get so excited when it’s time for their walks🐾 Paula is reliable, kind, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. She’s attentive, patient, and always makes sure White and Snow get great exercise and attention. It’s such a comfort knowing White and Snow are in such good hands, and the updates and photos Paula shares from their walks are always wonderful to see. I would highly recommend Paula to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker.
Paula is so amazing with Frank and very patient as Frank is recently adopted and still getting used to walking on a leash. There has been so much improvement since Paula has been walking him! Frank absolutely loves Paula, who genuinely loves dogs, is always on time, and posts fun photos and updates from their walks 🩷🐶
Paula is a delightful person who is highly responsive, timely, clean and tidy taking excellent care of my diabetic cat Charlie as well as my house and plants. I was very grateful for her efforts and her care. I would be happy to hire Paula again. Thank you!
Paula was an incredible pet and house sitter! We felt so comfortable being away for 6 weeks knowing Paula was spending almost every moment with our little furry ones. Our house was cleaner and tidier when we returned than when we left! Our pets (two dogs and three cats) warmed up to her very easily and it was clear she bonded with and cared about our pets because she picked up on some of their silly personalities quirks and shared them with us. She regularly sent us photos and videos of our dogs and cats and communicated frequently with adventures she had been on with the dogs and questions she had. All of our plants were in great condition as well, so she clearly made sure to water them regularly. She even figured out a better system for feeding one of our dogs who has always been reluctant to eat her meals. We recommend her highly!

As a remote entrepreneur, I offer something many sitters can’t: consistent daytime presence. Your pet isn’t left alone for long stretches or squeezed between other bookings. My flexible work schedule allows me to integrate care naturally throughout the day. This includes: ✔️ Midday enrichment walks or structured backyard play ✔️ Consistent feeding and medication routines ✔️ Responsive potty breaks (no long waits by the door) ✔️ Calm, attentive evening companionship Because I’m home, I can adjust in real time, whether your dog needs extra exercise, reassurance during a storm, or simply quiet company nearby. My workday flows with your pet’s rhythm and their well-being.
