Full time to love and care your pet

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Paola, an animal lover, and a MedCA Certified Veterinary Assistant. I've had pets all my life, and my love for them is the reason people have trusted me with their care when they're away. With ample time and energy, I can cater to your pet's needs, whether it's playing, cuddling, or simply providing companionship. I have the ability to adapt to your pet's personality and requirements. Working from home allows me to offer 24/7 supervision during your pet's stay. Your pet will have constant companionship. If your pet feels more comfortable sleeping closer to us, that's perfectly fine – we love having them close! I'll send you pictures of your pet to your mobile phone as often as you'd like. I can accommodate any special requests or dietary needs for your dog. Feel free to bring homemade food if that's what your pet prefers. Additionally, our home has plenty of space, so owners can bring everything necessary to make their pet feel at home. I'm fortunate to be married to an animal lover like myself. We're the only occupants of our home, with no children or other pets. My sincere wish is that while you're on vacation, your pet experiences days of relaxation and a positive change of routine. We can leisurely stroll through the park, enjoy the surroundings, and ensure your pet receives all the love it's accustomed to. Your pet will be treated as part of the family and always feel welcome! Si, tambien hablo español ;)

Paola and her husband were the absolute best for when I had to leave Max for a few days for a work trip. She sent photos and videos and my little guy had so much fun during his “vacation”. This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad I found Paola! Max had plenty of playtime, time outside in their fenced yard, as well as snuggles and belly rubs. She truly loves your pup like they are her own :) the next time I have a trip I know exactly who I’ll be calling! Thanks again, Paola - Max loves you!

Paola did a phenomenal job caring for our Kody. He has minor issues with separation anxiety and Paola made sure he had his medication each day at the appropriate time. She incorporated him right into her household and he fit right in and relaxed immediately. Her and her husband loved him as their own. The pictures and videos she sent made it apparent that Kody was relaxed and having a great time. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience with Paola and her husband Sebastián. Thanks for loving on him!

Paola is wonderful and was the absolute sweetest with our Cavalier puppy, Winston. He was given more than enough attention:) Walks and backyard play along with snuggle time made for a perfect day:) It was a pleasure meeting both Paola and her husband, Sebastian. We will definitely be seeing them for future puppy sitting:)

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a spacious house with my husband, who shares my passion for animals. Currently, we don't have any pets, creating an even safer environment for our little guests. Our comfortable backyard provides a great space for playing with dogs when the weather is nice. Additionally, when time allows, we love taking leisurely walks to the nearest park for a more extended stroll.

Information Paola B. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog (or cat) has anxiety problems or any behaviors that make your pet unique and special. Throughout my experience, I have encountered some interesting situations, and sometimes a simple object in the house, such as a bottle, can trigger anxiety or fear in a pet. If that is the case, I have no problem adapting to their needs to make their stay more comfortable. Is your dog afraid of children, big dogs, or even the rain? It's helpful for me to be aware of these things in advance to avoid any inconvenience, and I'll be happy to provide your dog with a better experience. Do you have any specific homemade food that your pet enjoys? Feel free to share the whole story about your little one. I love hearing about the unique experiences of each furry friend.

A typical day

We can enjoy quiet movie nights on the sofa or go for walks and runs in the nearby park. Feel free to bring your pet's favorite toys, bed, or even homemade food to ensure they feel happier during their stay.

I work from home, which enables me to be full-time with your little beloved friend. This is particularly advantageous for me to attend to the needs of older pets or any other friend who requires medication at a specific time. It also allows me to keep a close eye on the puppies, who need a different kind of attention and supervision.
