Pet care experience

Best pet uncle ever!

I’ve been a dog owner for 25+ years. Love playing with dogs of all sizes and breeds and am always up for a walk and getting more sunshine. Would love to provide your pets a home away from home while you’re away or make them comfortable in their normal environment until you return. I treat the pets of others like they’re were my own. Whether your furry friends like to snuggle on the couch or be out and active, I’ll match their energy.

Paul was absolutely wonderful with our dogs while we were away for the week. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we really appreciated the regular updates and pictures he sent throughout our trip. He stayed at our house so the dogs could remain in their normal environment, which made a huge difference in their comfort and routine. We came home to happy pups and a clean, well cared for house. Most importantly, it was obvious how much care and patience he showed them. We would absolutely trust Paul with our pups and our home again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.

Paul and his son Cal watched Kahlua for 4 hours and it went well. I would recommend Paul to watch your dog.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether it’s relaxing on the couch for ear scratches or playing tug-of-war, I’ll match your pets’ energy and keep them engaged. There’s a fenced in back yard to stretch as necessary but I prefer a good walk for them to explore the sights and sounds of my quiet neighborhood with sidewalks.

A typical day

I like to walk along the sidewalks near my home which run along some nice sections of woods and a golf course to stimulate your dog’s sense of smell and adventure.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors for which I should be aware, including friendliness with other dogs. Eating, potty, and sleep routines are important to me as I want your dog to maintain the normal schedule as close as possible.
