Pet care experience

Detail-oriented and ready to help!

I'm an passionate and excitable person who would love to care for your pet(s), huge or teeny! I'm very experienced working all sorts of animals, all with different needs and circumstances, as I have been volunteering at animal shelters for around 7 years and dog-sitting for 4! I am a CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) member as well, so if any situation were to arise, I am trained to handle them throughly. Please feel free to send me any information or questions before deciding on if I am the right match for you and your baby. There's no such thing as something being "too much" either, especially when it comes to something as important as your loved ones :)

Safety, trust & environment

I am very accustomed to when animals needing extra special care, so there's nothing that could shock me! I love taking walks/playing, so you can rest easy knowing that your baby will be engaged and taken out if allowed. I just hate to see such sweet faces bored! I am a stickler for rules, so whatever is the norm for them will be a new norm for me. I clean throughly and will leave your home as clean as it was when I got there.

Paula is truly the best! She is incredibly trustworthy, kind, sweet, and caring, and I always feel completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She treats her as if she were her own and gives her so much love and attention. Paula also stays in our home when we’re away, which gives us such peace of mind knowing both our home and our pup are in the best hands. We couldn’t recommend Paula more highly. She is wonderful, and we feel so lucky to have her! ❤️🐾

Paula is my sister and although she is my blood kin and she can do a mediocore job at dogsitting because of it, she never does! Everytime I leave my dog Daisy with her, Daisy is always super well taken care of it the whole time. She provides constant updates and loves Daisy (almost!) as much as me and makes sure she is content.

As someone who has known Paula for many years, I can personally attest that she is absolutely amazing with animals. She has taken time out of her day to volunteer at safe and loving animal shelters, where she has cared for all kinds of animals in need. Whether it was feeding them, cleaning up after them, or taking them outside to go potty, she never once complained and always did it with a smile. My dog absolutely loves her and always chooses to cuddle with her instead of me. She even taught my dog tricks like how to sit! Paula is truly an angel with both animals and people.

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs ahead of time. I am more than happy to accommodate that if it is in my realm of capabilities! I would hate to ruin any training progress, so if there's anything you'd like me to keep up with, I am more than open.
