Fairy Dog Mother

Pet care experience

I've been dog-obsessed my whole life, and have had them since I was a child. I also commute to all pup/kitty jobs exclusively by bike, rain or shine, 7 days a week. I've cared for many different fur babies, from puppies to seniors, and I tailor each walk specifically to them. My walking style is totally "dog-focused". You won't see me listening to music or talking on the phone while I walk your pup, you will see me 100% focused on your fur baby, ensuring their safety and taking loads of photos for your review. I'm also a Foster Mum for Pacific Pug Rescue which took 6 months of vetting, and I have 2 rescue Pugs whom I adore.

Paola was terrific. She sent me a reminder the night before and let me know when she was on her way to walk Freya. It's reassuring to know I can rely on Paola.

Safety, trust & environment

I don't let Gus & Pickes (AKA “Naughty Pickles”) outside by themselves. Our daily schedule is wake up, I take them into my garden to go pee, then after each meal (breakfast, lunch & dinner), they get a brisk 15-20 min walk in the neighborhood, and we do different routes each time to keep it interesting . Then, before bed, they goe pee in our garden one more time.

Information Paola D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or is on a specific diet. Because I'm a Foster Mum for Pacific Pug Rescue, I've had experience with special needs pups.

A typical day

I think it's important to change up a dog's walking route, so typically we take new routes each time we go out which I believe keeps them highly stimulated.

Pet care is my daily priority, I walk both my dogs 3x per day, but because they're Pugs, we only go for 15-20 walks typically, short, sweet, and consistent. D
