Information Paula G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they have any health issues as well as what vaccinations they currently have. Making sure I am notified of any behavioral tendencies or allergies is helpful to ensure the safety of the dog & myself :) For BOARDING: **Please be courteous and bring your pet clean as they will be allowed on my furniture ** please make sure to bring food, their favorite toys & leash for their potty breaks & short walks around my neighborhood :) - only potty trained pets

A typical day

I love to walk dogs around my neighborhood, depending on the athletic ability of the dog. I also like going to parks and playing fetch. I have no problem hanging out with dogs who are more laid back and love to pet them and give belly rubs.

Pet care experience

Hi ! Im Paula, I have enjoyed caring for pets for over 10 years part time. I love being able to bond & connect with other pet families. I will treat them as my own. I enjoy taking them out for walks and playing with them. I also have experience caring for cats :) I have hosted cats at my home. I have 3 small mini poodle mix that are friendly with other dogs, cats and children. My dogs love having guest to play with and are great about sharing their space. They are calm and laid back. Best method to reach me is by message. I try to reply within an hour or less. Feel free to ask any questions you may have.

We boarded Archie with Paula during the thanksgiving break. It was one of the most stress-free experiences for us. Paula is very considerate and sends tons of photos and updates. She also helped brushing and even dressed up our dog for the holiday photos (super cute!) Our pup loves her, her family and her fur babies and had an amazing time. Would definitely rebook with Paula.
