V.I.PAWsitive PetCare

Pet care experience

We speak English & Hablamos Español! I’ve had and taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 7 years old when my parents thought it important to teach me to be responsible: “Take great care of these puppies because they are God’s creatures and deserve a lot of love and protection”, they said. That inspired me a lot and neighbors, fiends, and family have relied on to me to walk, feed, bathe, and administer medication to their pets throughout my lifetime. That led me to work as a veterinary assistant, but I found my true passion in training dogs! I have medical training, Certified CPR, and Certified Dog Trainer. We are currently self employed with our own dog training service, but are expanding in pet care. This means that we have a very flexible schedule and can provide: DOGGY DAYCARE M-F 7am-7pm (pick up/drop off available)...and most weekends. DROP IN VISIT services (walk, potty, feed, play) AVAILABLE M-F until 11 am and after 4:30 pm...some times in between those as well. We currently rent a house in Liberty Square Art District with 6 foot high enclosed yard areas. Our household is 1000% animal loving and our canine "son" Jake is Canine Good Citizen trained and certified and is very friendly with dogs and cats squirrels, etc...so your pet will be very loved! We also have a few cats that were born and raised with dogs and are super social and friendly. However, we know that all dogs don't like cats, so our kitties have their own bedroom that help all our guests yo be comfortable.

Paul is the best!! He instantly connected with Leo and has already offered me some amazing training tips. Paul sent me lots of updates + photos and it was reassuring to know that Leo was in great hands all weekend. I HIGHLY recommend booking with him!!

Paul is the best! ? He is very nice and friendly and took great care of my fur babies. You can tell he really loves animals and we would definitely choose him in the future as our pet sitter.

Paul was a lifesaver when I rescued my dog 3 years ago. My dog has fear-aggression after being mistreated and abandoned, and Paul stepped in immediately to help leash train him and build his confidence with positive reinforcement. Paul and his team have cared for my dog for over 3 years, staying with him at my house and having him stay at their house. Paul also walked my dog twice a day every day for 2+ years before I began working from home. My dog loves Paul and trusts him completely - I would highly recommend Paul and his team to care for your pets, especially if they are pets that require special attention or training needs.

Paul has been a dream when it comes for care of my Great Dane, Wesley. When I saw how they connected after only a few visits, my heart was at ease. Not only is Paul well-tuned to the specific needs of my senior Dane, he also came highly recommended from several friends in the community.

No breed preferences. We are certified trainers and don't discriminate against breeds, however we are selective based on behavior and manners. ALL DOGS MUST BE PROPERLY SOCIALIZED AND GET ALONG WITH OTHER DOGS. ALL VACCINES AND DEWORMING MUST BE UP TO DATE AND CERTIFIED BY A VET...ESPECIALLY BORDATELLA (KENNEL COUGH).

Interactive "brain games" playtime. Outdoor playtime in our very shaded yard spaces. For best exercise, we also can do jogs with bike rides if your dog is trained (and we can train for an additional rate). Coming soon: field trips to dog parks, and other recreational areas within a 5 mile radius.
