Pet care experience

Loving family care for your pet!

I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and raised cows and pigs for 4H and rescued litters of raccoon babies as a kid. My dog of 11 years recently passed, and we did just add a French bulldog puppy to our home about 1 year ago. I would love to care for your pet as if they were my own. Also own a ball python that is confined to a terrarium.

Paul took great care of my 2 Frenchies during my recent vacation. I received multiple pictures and videos of my very happy pups and they got along great with Paul's Frenchie. When I leave town I will always use Paul if he is available!

Paul was awesome! My doggies had a great time and I know they were well cared for. Winnie was so tired at pick up, so I know she played a lot with his little dog which gave Ellie some time to relax. Appreciated the update during the stay to make sure all was well! Thank you Paul! Especially with a short notice weekend stay for two doggies. Thank you!

Doc’s favorite “home away from home.” I always know he is having the best time of his doggy life when he is with Paul and his son.

Paul was great with Penny! She’s a little shy but he knew how to give her space and keep her comfortable. We got pics and videos while we were on our vacation and I know our beloved pet was well looked after. Will definitely book again!

Paul and his son did an amazing job caring for my dog! I felt like we were long lost friends by the time I left when I dropped Kitty off because they are so personable and kind! Paul sent videos and kept in contact with me throughout her stay. Paul went above and beyond by making Kitty some homemade food when I miscalculated and she ran out. I would hands down recommend Paul to anyone looking for a sitter that pays individual attention to your fur baby!

Schedule

Currently we have a puppy that we are building good habits for. That said we make sure to take the pets out in the back yard before work, walks during lunch break, and most of the evening being spent in a fenced in back yard in good weather.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is setup for pets, all the way down to a doggie dog for backyard access. I have a fenced in back yard with lots of space to run for a dog.

Pets

A typical day

Morning backyard fetch and play time with my puppy. A lunch time stroll around the cul-de-sac is available and an after work walk on the bike path makes sure we both get our steps (and smells) if the backyard play time is not sufficient.
