Loving, Attentive Pet Care All Day
I provide dedicated and attentive pet care that goes beyond basic feeding and walks. My services include daily walks, interactive play sessions, administering medications if needed, and closely monitoring your pets to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy throughout the day. I tailor activities to each pet’s individual personality and needs, whether that means gentle companionship and quiet time for senior pets or stimulating games and engagement for more energetic animals. Every pet I care for receives personalized attention and a structured routine designed to keep them healthy, mentally engaged, and emotionally content. I have over one year of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and sizes, providing attentive supervision, companionship, and consistent care. Currently, I am at home, which allows me to dedicate my full attention to your pets, responding immediately to their needs and maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. My availability is flexible, and I can offer part-time or full-time care depending on your schedule. Being at home ensures your pets receive continuous companionship, affection, and structured care, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. In my home, I create a warm and welcoming environment with cozy spots for resting, fun areas for play, and a calm space for meals. I follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding, walks, and any special care they may need, such as medications or dietary requirements. In a client’s home, I treat their space with care and follow their routines exactly as instructed. I provide companionship, interactive play, walks, and keep a close eye on their behavior and health to ensure they are happy and stress-free. My goal is always to provide attentive, loving, and reliable care, so pets feel secure and cared for whether they are in my home or theirs, giving owners peace of mind while they’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Paula is an excellent sitter with outstanding communication skills. She's very respectful, attentive, and caring. We appreciate her composed demeanor. She is responsible, dedicated, and trustworthy. Recommended.
Paula has been a wonderful caregiver for my dog, Rocket. She started off walking him once a week so they could get to know each other and Rocket took to her positive manner right away. He is a Border Collie and needs a steady, calm, consistent person to keep him from going into herd/protect mode. After they developed a relationship, we used her as a dog/house sitter for a week when our family went out of town. She made certain that she understood all of Rocket's routines and requirements before we left and I felt totally comfortable leaving him in her hands. She sent photos to let us know that they were having fun and followed all of his routines to a tee. We returned to a happy dog and everything just as we left it (maybe better). I will definitely use her again and I highly recommend her as a dog walker and pet sitter.
Paula is an excepcional pet sitter who took amazing care of my German Shepherd. He is a very strong high-energy dog, yet Paula handle him whit confidence, skill and patience, keeping him safe happy at all times. Her ability to connect whit him is incredible - he gets overjoyed when she arrives and trusts her completely. I can always rely on Paula to provide, attentive, profesional and loving care.
Paula is the best with pets! She has watched our dogs on multiple occasions and they are always so happy to see her when she comes to take care of them! She is very loving with animals and is always able to give our dogs the proper walks they need.
I can’t recommend Paula enough! Paula watched Beau on two separate occasions, each for a weeks time. He could not have been happier. She provided daily reports and sent photos. I even got a birthday surprise while on one of my trips! She is very loving and caring and I knew Beau was in good hands. Paula will come and take Beau for long walks while I’m at work and he is always just so happy to see her. Paula is very reliable and trustworthy

Schedule
Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, and I structure my day to ensure your pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship. Since I dedicate my time to managing household tasks, I am able to be fully present with the pets I care for, giving them undivided attention throughout the day. This includes regular walks, playtime, feeding, and monitoring their well-being, as well as offering affection and companionship whenever they need it. My schedule is flexible and tailored to each pet’s needs, allowing me to adapt to their individual routines and preferences. I make sure to balance active play and mental stimulation with quiet, restful periods, creating a calm and nurturing environment. By being at home most of the day, I can respond immediately to any needs or changes in behavior, ensuring pets feel secure, happy, and loved while their owners are away. This setup allows me to provide reliable, attentive, and personalized care every day of the week.

- It’s very important for me to know each pet’s routine, energy level, and any special needs they might have. I like to ask about their feeding schedule, walking habits, favorite activities, and if there are any restrictions such as dietary sensitivities or health conditions. I also find it helpful to know how they react around other animals or new people, and if there are any specific commands or behaviors I should reinforce. The more I know in advance, the better I can provide consistent care that makes them feel comfortable and secure.
