Fun and Safe Daycare and Boarding
Pet care experience
Hello, I am Paula! I reside in Mountain View with my twin boys, husband and adopted pup Daisy, a 12 year old Chihuahua. I have been watching pups for eight years and consider it my dream job! I absolutely LOVE this job and feel so lucky to be able to spend my days with dogs. In addition to caring for pups I once had a homemade dog food delivery service (Chomp & Nibble, Inc.) and started a dog swapping community (Pup Sit Match). My heart is into dogs that's for sure. These ideas were great and well received, but it took away from what I really like doing....spending time with dogs! So, recently (2021) I signed up to become a dog trainer, yay! Pup visitors are truly treated like family in our home. They are allowed on our furniture and most often sleep with me. Not ever pup parent likes this, so I adjust to your pups needs and your philosophy on canine parenting. Please ask me about discounts for long boarding stays and recurring daycare visits. For daycare, drop-off is typically 8:30am or after and pick-up at 5:30. I'm flexible and on occasion can accept other arrangements. For new overnight boarding pups drop off is between Noon and 5pm. This is just for the first time stay, after that drop off is after 9:30am and pick-up by 9:00pm. I have a house with two fenced in areas. Our home is very pet friendly and pet safe. I am always at home supervising pups to ensure their safety. You can contact me anytime you like and I usually respond within a few minutes.
Reviews
Paula took great care of Paco! She understands dog behavior and was very communicative with me about my anxious dog. I trust my fur baby in her care!
Our puppy Chicago loves staying at Paula’s! He is excited to go to her place and play with other dogs there. She takes great care of him and keeps us informed about his whereabouts and sends us pictures. He is exhausted and happy after coming home from her place which means he really played a lot and got a lot of attention. We 100% trust Paula with taking care of Chicago whenever we are out of town. 😊
I cannot say enough good things about Paula! I was so nervous to leave my two dogs and she made me feel so much better. I have a very energetic puppy and a very anxious 2 year old dog and they both were instantly comfortable with Paula. I was able to completely enjoy my vacation knowing they were having the best time and received regular photos and updates. I cannot recommend her more!
Paula did a wonderful job communicating with us and sending pictures throughout our booking. We are looking forward to using her services in the future!

I stay home with my pups all day. If I leave the home it is for less than one hour. During this time my pup visitors are left in our living room where they relax or play with one another.

Information Paula B. would like to know about your pet
In preparation for our meet and greet I'll cover some of the following: How does your dog get along with other people and dogs? How does he/she adapt to new environments? Any special needs? Any aggressive tendencies? Any medical needs, taking medicine, allergies, foods to avoid? After you book with me, I will ask that you complete a detailed pet questionnaire that will ask questions about your pups routine, specific food requirements, any commands/words you use that I can reinforce, etc.
A typical day
Doggie Activities My pup visitors spend their day playing with other pup visitors, taking walks and chilling on the couch. I have an endless amount of dog toys and like to get the latest and greatest treat puzzle toys for my pups. Sleeping Arrangement Our family is very open to where our pet visitors sleep. It is really up to them, and the pet parent. Most pet visitors like sleeping with me or on the couch, its really where they are most comfortable. 24/7 Pup Care Taking care of my pet visitors is my one and only job. This is my career of choice, pet sitting is my profession, and passion :). I spend all my time with my pet visitors walking, playing, cuddling, and lounging.

Pet care is my full time job. I am here with my pup visitors all the time. My pups have access to the outdoors to play and go potty all day.
