Experienced sitter with dog behaviour knowledge
Pet care experience
I've participated in dog rescues, have taken dog behaviour seminars, first aids clases and have a responsible owner certificate. I love dogs and their welfare and happiness is what's most important to me. I'm currently studying vet fisio so do expect me to give your dog a complementary massage 😊 I work from home and thanks to that I can acomodate to the dogs needs. I can take them to the park and play or take them to sneef around the neighborhood, depending on the dogs needs. I like to stick to the owners requirements regarding walks, eating, house rules and potty train. But I would add some cuddles/massages in between, also if you like I can try and teach your dog basic tricks 😊
Reviews
Paola was super sweet, she also gave daily updates with photos and videos, and our dog loved her!
I had the pleasure of having Paola take care of my fur baby while I was away, and I couldn't be more thrilled with her exceptional service. From the moment I met her, it was clear that she had a genuine passion for animals. She went above and beyond to ensure that my dog felt comfortable and loved during my absence. She followed all of my instructions meticulously, from feeding and walking. What truly set her apart was the extra effort she put into making sure my dog was happy and content. I received regular updates and photos that reassured me that my pooch was in great hands. Her kindness, patience, and dedication were truly exceptional. I returned home to a happy and healthy dog who had clearly formed a special bond with Paola. I can't express how grateful I am for her outstanding care and professionalism. If you're looking for someone to entrust with your pet, I highly recommend Paola. She's a true gem and a dog's best friend.
Paola looked after our pup, Penny, for the afternoon. She was gentle and caring and Penny was relaxed and calm when we came back home. Thanks Paola!
Paola looked after our 14 week old puppy beautifully. She was gentle with her, and very loving. Our puppy was very relaxed when we returned. Paola also took great care in our flat and is a very respectful and amiable person. Paola is definitely be a welcome friend for our puppy.

Safety, trust & environment
I follow your routine and instructions. Do expect me to cuddle them. I like to keep them relaxed so the sitting goes as smooth as possible. I double check the weather before going out in case it's too hot/cold for your dogs fitness level and always encourage them to stay hydrated.
Information Paola S. would like to know about your pet
It's important to know any medical conditions, allergies, diet restrictions as well if there's any behavioural issue that needs to be addressed or is being addressed by a professional. Also their daily routine and how they get on with new people, leash or off-leash walks and approaching dogs.
A typical day
I love playing with them and giving massages to them. I also let them sniff arround during walks without rushing then as it's an important stimulation for them. I have 2 recreation parks close by so they won't be bored.
