Pet care experience

Home full time - love dogs

I've been around and I've owned dogs my whole life. I recently retired and would love to fill my days helping other families with there pet needs. I have experience in giving daily medications including pills and injections. I'm and avid outdoorsman and I enjoy spending time with my golden retriever and my chocolate lab Along with our two 4-legged babies, my wife and I have two grown sons that we love to visit when time allows. We moved to the Twin City area in January, we enjoy being here and all that it has to offer. It's also been nice for us to be closer to family that live in the area. I look forward to meeting and helping you with your pet needs.

Paul was always on time and Maggie (my dog) loved him - she always got excited as the time for her walk grew closer.

Paul is reliable, kind, and follows instructions well. We can always count on him to take great care of our dog when we’re away!

After some orthopedic surgery, I hired Paul to walk my two large dogs in the mornings. He was here promptly every day. He's the most dependable person I've worked with in a long time! My dogs really liked Paul and waited by the window because they knew what time he was coming. I am sure I will be using his services again in the future. I should add he's a super nice guy and you can tell he loves dogs.

Paul did a wonderful job with Rothko, who as a stubborn strong rottie isn't always the easiest walkee, as well as very punctual and reliable. We will definitely be happy to use Paul again for our future dog walking needs -- highly recommend!

I'm so glad Paul takes care of our pup! She's excited to see him and always seems to be happy on days when he visits.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Working at an animal clinic has strengthened my understanding of animal behavior and health. I’m attentive, observant, and quick to notice when something feels “off.” Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I follow the owner’s routine as closely as possible to minimize stress, including feeding schedules, walk times, play, and medication if needed. For cats, I prioritize gentle socialization and safe hiding spaces. I do require owners to allow me to give nail trims for my cats and your cats safety, price on nail trim is dependent on your cat temperament and trust level.
