Home Care to Suit Your Dog's Needs

Pet care experience

My name is Paula and I've loved and lived with dogs for most of my life. I know from experience how anxious some of our babies can get as they watch us head out the door. My Bruno was a rescue with abandonment issues so it was particularly gut-wrenching! I want to reduce the pups' anxiety level (and yours as well) during those times when you have to be away. We'll go for walks, go to dog parks, and window-shopping at pet stores. I'll do some light grooming, lots of playing and let's not forget cuddling. I won't be able to take your place, but your dog(s) will feel loved and cared for in your absence. And I can serve as a pet taxi as well, to make trips to and from the groomers, vets, and other locations.

Paula is an incredible puppy pal! Her love for animals is very evident in the way she speaks to them, plays with them, and watches out for their well being. We are extremely comfortable leaving our pets in her care. She and the boy were became inseparable right away, and she even managed to win over our shy girl, which is no small feat to accomplish! She is always punctual and professional. She handles our furry family with love as if they were her own. She is respectful of our space and we are comfortable with her watching our pets in our home. If you are looking for a new pet sitter, give her a call. Your dog(s) will thank you for it. I highly recommend her!

Paula provided top-notch service for my cat, Kilmer. I would use her again in a heartbeat and would recommend her services to anyone who wants peace of mind while they are at work or on vacation.

A typical day

My style of care varies with the needs of your pet, and your own expectations. I customize my service to suit your dog's breed, activity level and conditioning. I also factor in health requirements and / or limitations. If your pup is a little overweight, I'll adjust his fun activities accordingly. Most of all, I keep your dog engaged and stimulated, even during walks. Older dogs and young pups get as many potty breaks as needed. You'll get a full report of your pup's day and / or night.
