Pet care experience
I have been taking care of pets regularly for the past 13 years. I was responsible for walking, feeding, bathing and playing with my dog Max (miniature schnauzer) for his entire life, but especially during his elder years. I love senior dogs and I have the attentiveness and patience necessary to give them the quality care they deserve. I started working with Rover during the pandemic and have plenty of recent experience with a variety of pets of all ages and sizes, including puppies and kittens! I love all animals and I recognize the importance of talking to pets' owners to understand what they are used to / prefer. I want you and your pet to have the best experience possible!
Reviews
Paula and her partner took fantastic care of my (nervous) cattle dog. They were tidy, communicative, and a pleasure to work with. Would look forward to having them return anytime!
Paula and Natalie were wonderful. We felt so comfortable and confident leaving our dog and home with them. They communicated really well and we could tell our shy dog truly enjoyed their company. We would absolutely work with them again!
Paula was great! Dogs were happy and healthy upon our return and the house was well cared for. I’ll be reaching out again for sure.
Paula was great with my little schnauzer-mix, Ruthie, and patient with her quirks (and my attachment ;-). She was responsive, responsible, and flexible. Ruthie can't wait to see her again!
About Paula B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I’m detail-oriented and will follow all of your instructions carefully. We can communicate as needed before, during and after your pet's visit / walk. I know just how important your pets are to you, so I will take care of them as if they were my own.
Information Paula B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if you need me to administer any medications to your dog and if they have any other special needs. It's also important for me to know feeding instructions, at what time and for how long your pet usually goes out, and whether or not they are friendly with other pets we may encounter.
A typical day
I like to take dogs on long walks around the neighborhood and in parks. We will only interact with other dogs we come across if you (the owner) say it's okay. I'm more than happy to play ball with your dog if that's something they're interested in!

Availability
I'm a college student with a pretty flexible schedule! Please reach out if you need help at a time when my calendar says I’m not available - I’ll do my best to accommodate.
