Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced-in backyard where pets can explore and run around freely, offering plenty of space for fun and adventure. Additionally, there’s a chicken coop where they can make new friends and stay entertained. We also have a friendly, though a bit shy, cat who adds to the household dynamic. I always make sure to keep the fur babies well taken care of and provide them with plenty of entertainment when needed.

A typical day

I love playing with the dogs in the background, whether it’s fetching a ball or simply running around together. Taking them on walks around the neighborhood and to nearby parks is always a highlight, allowing them to explore new sights and smells while getting some exercise. It’s a great way to bond with the pets while ensuring they stay active and happy!

Adoring Pet Caregiver

Pet care experience

I have grown up surrounded by animals for most of my life, with experience taking care of both cats and dogs. Over the years, friends and family have often asked me to pet-sit, allowing me to further develop my skills in caring for animals. I’ve also had a cat of my own for the last five years, who is very well-loved and well-cared-for, giving me a deep understanding of the needs and responsibilities involved in pet ownership.

Paola did an awesome job house-sitting my four animals!! She kept my space clean and tidy and followed their care instructions perfectly. All of them loved her and she loved on them too- and sent plenty of pictures. I'd trust her again any time! Could not have asked for a better sitter!
