I am currently a fourth year medical student. Just moved to the Chicago area to finish med school. My hours are random but short and flexible. Best part about being in my final year is that I can make my own schedule and majority of my days are spent at home studying.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in back yard, living with another medical student so one of us is usually always home. There is another small dog in the house and she is older, but loves other animals and is very friendly. I can do leash walks or allow your animal out in your yard for some play time. Whatever is easiest for you and preferred.

Information Paul P. would like to know about your pet

Biggest thing is let me know their specific potty request and/hints. I like to keep my place and your place as clean as possible so we can all enjoy the time with our animals.

A typical day

Probably Netflix and chill… depends on the day. Maybe some bed bath and beyond? Might even hit up chic fila if it’s not a Sunday!

Paul has akways had a love for snimsld. He takes superb care if his pets and invests in toys and treats to keep them stimulated and active. At one point Paul had a friend who owned a pet shop that was going out of business and one by one a variety of aniamls made their way home with Paul. He grieves deeply when one of his beloved pets passes away due to age. Paul has a great sense of humor and gets along with everyone. Paul would be an asset to your business.

Paul has been absolutely amazing with my pets. I trust him completely with my puppies and my cat whenever I am traveling, and that peace of mind is priceless. He is incredibly attentive, follows instructions exactly as given, and has no problem administering medications exactly as prescribed. He does not just watch them, he genuinely cares for them, keeps their routines consistent, and makes sure they feel safe and comfortable. He is patient, calm, and clearly understands animal behavior, which shows in how relaxed my pets are around him. I always come home to happy, well cared for animals and detailed updates that let me know everything was handled responsibly. If you are looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely great with pets, Paul would be an incredible choice. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for excellent pet care.
