Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable and devoted to fur friends
Having begun dog sitting a neighbour’s Cockapoo eight years ago, I have recognised an aptitude for dog care. I’ve had many lovely dogs and delightful owners. I’ve found that having a dog with me is good for both myself and them as we can vary activities to suit whatever is happening. When I have more than one dog, they play together which is a great way of socialising and expending energy. There is a park directly opposite my home and there are generally other dogs there for canine company. Most local businesses are dog friendly and the dogs accompany me on errands. I’m flexible with times and can be available at short notice. From experience I no longer accept dogs under one year old due to the wear and tear caused by them not being house trained.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Honey had an amazing time with Paul. Great daycare dad who sends lots of pix and video. Will be using again!

Paul is so lovely and our Chuco enjoys staying with him every time. He usually takes a few dogs so they can all play together. I would definitely recommend. Paul always sends us photos and videos.
Paul is great with dogs and with people. I would definitely recommend to anyone. He took Skyler on short notice and she had great time wih him.

Paul is a fantastic dog minder. Fleet is currently 3 months old, not completely house-trained, bitey and prone to manic moments and, to top it all, she can't go on the ground yet: all in all not the easiest dog to look after. However, she is excited to see him every morning and comes home tired and happy every evening - what more could you want from a dog-minder?! He is also very flexible, which is much appreciated.
super cool with dog, easy to communicate!

I can't say enough nice things about Paul. He was wonderful with Rosie and kept her happy and feeling safe. Paul is a dog whisperer!

Schedule
I’m here for the dogs, my days revolve around them. They take precedence. All I ask is that we have regular coffee time in dog friendly cafes.

Safety, trust & environment
Canine guests are treated better than human visitors. It’s been noted. Dogs are happy with me as we do things together and they’re constantly stimulated.
A typical day
I live on Pleasance, a few minutes walk from Holyrood Park and The Meadows. If I have a couple of dogs we often go to Portobello Beach.

- I’ve been a dog carer for eight years and am experienced in identifying issues. I’m very genuine and I believe that’s the reason I have been successful as Well share everything their dog experiences.
