Availability

I get up around 5am so the zoo can eat & play before work. Come home during my lunch break so they can have a quick potty break. I get home by 4pm & the zoo is more than ready to play again. Dinner is at 5pm, though my girl tells me it should be at 4:30. My husband works a rotating schedule, so there could be up to 7 days straight that he doesn't work & can be more available for playtime & potty breaks.

Safety, trust & environment

For those doggos that are nervous, we can block off rooms with baby gates and pocket doors to ease them with our zoo. We also have very few stairs for those with limited mobility. We have a chainlink fence around our whole property and in the back there's a gate to divide the west and east sides of our yard. This allows all doggos outside even if they all don't get along or just need more time to get settled.

Information Paula P. would like to know about your pet

Before dog sitting, I would like to know if your doggo is potty and/or crate trained. Not required, but helpful to know. Also all doggos would need to be up to date with their rabies, distemper and bordetella vaccinations.

A typical day

Mental games inside, but lots of playtime outside with or without our pittie & rottie. Our English Bulldog isn't one to play very much - she likes to lounge around all day..lol

Pet care experience

We did take a break from Rover to grieve a couple of our bulldogs & welcome new family members, but now we're ready to welcome your doggos in our home again. I love doggos so much that I work at a vet clinic part time for the past 6+ years. We also foster a variety of breeds of all ages/sizes for a local rescue. I just can't get enough of doggos! I am not afraid of giving meds, dealing with some behaviors, food allergies or potty training. We have a 15yr old son who is a dog whisperer, an English Bulldog, a pittie & a rottie, plus 2 lizards. All are comfortable with variety of doggos coming and going in our household. Can't wait to meet you & your fur baby!

Paula was so great with Hazel. Our girl is getting old, and it made is feel so good to know that Paula works in a veterinary hospital. We felt she really understands what we and are dog are going through

Paula did a fabulous job watching our two dogs while we were away! They came home happy and tired from playing. Thank you, Paula!

Very responsive. Paula provided updates whenever I asked. My pup enjoyed playing and spending time with her pups.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
