About Paula R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
While I prefer to give one-to-one attention I will consider a second dog if the pair are/can be bonded. I share my home and we treat our visitors as part of the family. (Pet pick up and drop off services are not provided)

A typical day
This is a safe fully fenced space with your pet having access to toys with lots of room to play fetch, tug-of-war, keep-away, tag and agility games. I provide enrichment activities based on your pet's interests and energy level. A stay filled with zoomies and mlems!

Experienced retired caregiver
Pet care experience
Your pet will have a fully fenced third acre property on the ocean side of Parksville to explore and enjoy. I have experience giving oral medications and injections of insulin when needed. If your pet requires one-to-one care due to age, health or reactivity please let me know. I consider hosting two dogs if the pair are/can be bonded and prefer company.
Reviews

Paula is terrific. She is a lovely person who has a real connection to dogs. She sat for our dog Truffles for the first time this week. We were a bit worried about how things would go because Truffles is a rehomed dog that can be very timid around people and has issues going inside. However, Paula has a huge fenced yard and indicated that she would stay outside with Truffles if she would not come in. Remarkably Paula got her into her home in just 15 minutes. And she seemed relaxed and content when we picked her up. We will definitely go back to Paula in the future. Matthew and Gillian

Communicative and pleasant. Reno had a great stay and loved Paula's backyard!

Paula has always been great with our skittish Maple! She made sure Maple’s stay is always pleasant and enjoyable, with extra home-made treats! Definitely will come back again next time!

Paula is amazing with dogs. Izzy was comfy, content and happy. She sent pictures with little updates. I highly recommend Paula to care for your fur babies.
