Pet care experience

I have been a sitter on Rover for about 5 years now, and I am absolutely OBSESSED! It feels great to give my clients get a piece of mind knowing their pets are being loved and well taken care of while they’re away from home - It’s something I truly enjoy spending my free time doing. I’ve got experience in both pet/house sitting for clients, and raising and training pets of my own. I am open to taking care of all types of pets being that I have cared for animals ranging from dogs, ferrets, hamsters, bunnies, and even down to an iguana! I look forward to hearing from you soon, and getting to meet your furry friends!

Paula was very professional and kept me informed and updated throughout the weekend. She was patient and caring with my senior dog, who is hard of hearing on top of other medical issues. She gave him his medications twice a day and soothed him when he was anxious. She will definitely be my first choice when I need a sitter.

Paula is very nice and did a great job watching Toby while I was out of town. Unfortunately, it rained (heavily) throughout her whole stay, so walks were on short supply but she kept me updated throughout and took Toby out as much as possible considering! I came home to a happy pup and clean home. I would definitely book with Paula again!

Paula has a very calm demeanor and was able to ease my anxious senior dog into a nice walk. He doesn’t warm up to people easily so this is a win!

Paula is hands down the best dog sitter I could have asked for. When I saw her profile on Rover I felt a genuine, kind energy and a love for dogs that immediately matched when I met her in person. I was hesitant to go out of town because my dog is very attached to me but Paula loved my dog like she was her very own. My dog is a bit shy, but within a few hours she was showing Paula the same love and attachment that she shows me which is very rare. Additionally, I’ve never had someone stay in my house without me being there so I was a little hesitant, but Paula treated my home with such respect and everything looked exactly the way I left it! There are truly no words to express how grateful I am for finding Paula and her bond with my dog enabled me to enjoy my vacation to the fullest extent because I knew she was in great hands. Dogs are a great judge of character and the way my dog loves her shows what a great person she is. I will absolutely book Paula again and I recommend her to anyone that wants someone considerate, punctual, professional and has a genuine love for dogs!
