Safety, trust & environment

Safety is always my top priority. I’m careful to ensure that dogs and cats do not slip out of the house or go off-leash. I also have a secure, fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time. I’m easy to work with and happy to accommodate most special requests. When needed, I can administer medications in most situations and always follow your instructions closely.

Information paul p. would like to know about your pet

I enjoy working with dogs and cats of all temperaments. While I prefer easygoing pets, I’m also experienced with puppies and dogs who need a little extra social guidance. I know how to manage a variety of behaviors and can help redirect pets away from things they dislike or fixate on, keeping them calm and comfortable.

A typical day

Whatever your dog enjoys, I can make it happen! I have experience walking dogs on the street, trails, bike paths, beaches, and at dog parks. I’ll happily throw the ball over and over, and I’m ready for long walks or adventures—no limits!

Pet care experience

Plenty of summer availability. I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid and have many years of experience walking and pet-sitting both cats and dogs. I’m a marathon runner and avid hiker, so I love keeping active pets happy and well-exercised. I truly love animals and treat every pet I care for with patience, kindness, and the same attention I’d give my own.

Our dog Reggie loves Paul. Paul is always punctual and reliable. He takes Reggie on extra long walks to wear him out when we have long days at work.
