Mature Caring Reliable Responsible

Pet care experience

My home has been in Sheffield for 38 years. Today I spend my time remotely managing a pet care business in NYC, house sitting for pets in the Berkshires and providing Healthcare services as a certified Healthcare Aid. Semi-retired, I work from my studio/office and have time to spare for four-legged friends. As for my dogs, I have had three generations of Shihtzus and currently have a Black Lab and a Lab Rescue. I have been working with dogs for 25 years and I support no kill shelters to include , Monkey’s House Dog Hospice and Sanctuary, The Berkshire Humane Society and Elanore Sonsini Shelter in Massachusetts, and Takis Shelter in Crete, Greece

Could not have been happier. Paul and Alonzo hit it off immediately and I felt that Alonzo was in great hands. I received updates and pictures during his stay and would trust Alonzo with Paul anytime.

I have known Paul for 20 years. Without reserve I can recommend Paul for any task that involves the care, safety and nurturing of man's best friend. As a respected professional he exhibits a character of keen instinct and responsibility few others can. Paul has been a mentor, big brother, and caring human being and I am thankful to call Paul my friend. Marilyn S
