Pet care experience
Growing up the son of a vet, I've had my fair share of experience when it comes to animal care. I worked as kennel help at my mom's practice for two years where I was introduced to general animal care and well being, including critical care patients. Through this experience, I also practiced animal upkeep including exercise, diet, and social behavior. I have worked with animals of all ages and species from puppies and kittens to seniors. Besides small animals, I am also well versed in livestock and large animal care. I've approximately 10 years experience in my local 4-H chapter, where I raised show goats and competitively rode horses. Over the course of the ten years, I learned many applicable skills including administering medication and creating diet plans. Additionally, I mastered diligent daily care which encompassed exercising, feeding, and training. Apart from professional animal care, I've owned and loved dogs (and cats) my entire life. However, now that I'm in college and living on campus I've been temporarily separated from the animals I love so much. My hope is to fill this gap with the help of the Rover service and your furry companion!
Reviews
Paul did an Excellant job of house/pet sitting my Sammie. He's a big exuberant old dog with needs. And he took super care of him and my house too. I would highly reccomend Paul.
Paul has been raised around animals all of his life, from small to big he has had to care for pets all of his life. He is responsible and caring, and plenty strong to take care of even the biggest of dogs. He loves dogs and misses being around them on a regular basis (he is a college student). He was raised on a farm and had horses and livestock experience. His mother is a veterinarian, so he has good understanding of animal health
Paul's mother is a veterinarian, so the family has had animals all of his life, including 4 Golden Retrievers. He has always shown care & compassion for the dogs as well as the cats, horses & 4-H goats,pigs & lambs that we have had over the years. For this reason I think Paul would do a great job as a dog caregiver

As of now, I do not own a dog. However, my campus is located near a local dog park. I'm also a consistent runner and hiker enabling me to accommodate any energy or activity level.
A typical day
I love to go hiking just about anywhere in Prescott and Flagstaff. I often hike the Dells and the Peavine Trail. I also enjoy hiking around Thumb Butte and Mt. Union. I also enjoy playing soccer with (or against) a furry competitor!
