Pet care experience

Always Home + BIG backyard 🏠 🐶

New to Rover, not new to animals. Lower rates limited time only. Dogs have been part of my life since I was 7 years old, when I got my first dachshund. Since then, I’ve had 3 dogs, all of whom lived into old age ❤️ So I have lots of hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life, including seniors who need a little extra patience and TLC. While dachshunds have my heart, I’m also very comfortable with larger dogs, different breeds and energy levels. I work from home full-time, so your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, backyard playtime and cuddles throughout the day. I’m also comfortable with feeding routines, basic grooming and administering medications. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like family and send you plenty of photo updates along the way! 🐶❤️

Paula has watched my Siberian Husky, Maverick, and she is amazing! She truly has such a big heart for animals. I also love that she lives in a house with a big backyard, which is perfect for my slightly over-energetic husky 😂. She’s caring, reliable, and has great communication. I always know Maverick is in great hands with her. Highly recommend!

Schedule

I work from home full-time in marketing, so I’m home and available throughout the day! Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches and I have lots of flexibility for playtime, cuddles, feeding, walks, bathroom breaks and whatever their normal routine requires. Pet interruptions during my workday are always welcome ❤️ My schedule is very flexible, including weekdays and weekends, so I can adapt to your pet’s existing routine rather than making them adapt to mine.

Safety, trust & environment

I want your pet to feel like they’re having their own little vacation while you’re away! Since I work from home, I’m around throughout the day to supervise, play and make sure they’re comfortable and safe. My home has plenty of space as well as a private, fenced outdoor backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play and enjoy some fresh air. We’re also only about 7 minutes from a dog park, so if your dog enjoys socializing and you’re comfortable with it, we have that option too. I’m very clean, organized and attentive, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication, sleeping and care routines as closely as possible. I also love sending frequent photo and video updates so you can actually relax knowing your fur baby is happy and well cared for. 🐾❤️

A typical day

Since I work from home full-time, your pet gets to be part of my day! Expect lots of attention, backyard playtime, walks around the neighborhood, cuddles and plenty of opportunities to get outside. I’m happy to match their energy level, whether that means lots of activity and adventures or lounging beside me while I work. 🐶❤️

Tell me everything! ❤️ I’d love to know your pet’s normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities and any quirks I should know about. Please also share any triggers, allergies, behavioral concerns or special needs. The more I know about your pet, the better I can make them feel safe, comfortable and at home.
