Pet care experience

Long walks are no problem!

I had two dogs growing up so I have been around them my whole life. I currently have a golden retriever that lives with me as well. I have dog-sat a basset hound since he was a puppy as well as a miniature dachshund and helped train them. I have a lot of patience so puppies are no issue! I also love getting my steps in so long walks are okay with me! I am okay with going to your residence or bringing your dog to mine as long as they are friendly! (There are good trails to walk where I live and I have a private dog park as well)

Paul took good care of our senior potty while we were away. We appreciated the check ins and pictures.

Paul took great care of Roxy and kept me informed so that I could enjoy my son’s wedding without worry.

We just used Paul for the first time while we were in Europe for 10 days, and he was great! Our two dogs and our cat really liked him, and we came home to happy animals and a clean house. We really appreciate his help and are happy to have a house and pet sitter we can trust!
