Happy Paws with Paul

Pet care experience

Hi my name is Paul! I’ve been a full time pet sitter for the last 4 years. After my dog passed away at the age of 24 years old (he was my little old man), i knew i wanted to be around pets. I was lucky to find an apartment that has a massive backyard and is on the ground level (for the older dogs) where your loved ones can run around. My roommate also does rover and will be around to make sure your animals will be in great care with constant love and attention! New clients can use code PAULL45768 For $20 off :) A little bit about me, I’m a Hoosier (indiana raised) that studied engineering with my twin brother at Stanford. I had a short but fulfilling career in tech and real estate but it was ultimately during Covid that shifted my goals in life. I packed up and drove cross country to nyc to be with my long distance partner who also helps out with the pet care. 4 years later I’m happy to be a full time pet sitter/walker which is pretty much the coolest job (I feel like a celebrity when my doggos recognize me on the streets and say hi 🖤) My fun fact is that growing up I had mice, rats, cats, hamsters, dogs, parakeets, and fish as pets so I’m pretty much equipped to handle all situations. I was shocked at the number of fish owners on rover who have elaborate amazing aquariums in their nyc apartments. Please let us know if your pet has triggers, odd behaviors, needs special requirements such as constant care. Also please inform us of any cameras if you use them. I follow the care instructions you provide very strictly so I always request care instructions be written out explicitly with a daily routine. While I am experienced with giving medications, I will need to be informed of all required and situational medications prior to the stay. I think that’s about it! Never met a pet who didn’t love me and that’s why I continue to do this job. Reach out and we’ll go from there!

Paul was as advertised, he showed up timely, communicated well, and did all I asked (plus sent some picture of my pets which is always wonderful).

Information Paul L. would like to know about your pet

Beyond basic care instructions, I mainly want to know if your pet will do anything odd that I need to be aware of (ie eating poop, vomiting, fear of golden retrievers, eats grass etc)

A typical day

I am a morning person so I like to wake up early to grab some tea at a nearby cafe and read some news. Since moving to nyc, I've been very excited to walk everywhere and hit up parks. My friends don't have any pets so I usually take the ones I am dog sitting out for picnics and social interactions.
