Paula was a friendly and accommodating when boarding my cat Cheese. She was patient as Cheese took time to settle in and kept me updated along the way.

Paula was wonderful with Tungsten! He stayed with her for six days and did great. It’s clear she took excellent care of him, and he came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend!

Paula was an awesome sitter for my cat. She kept me updated with photos and even brought up minor concerns to make sure everything was fine. Overall, great experience and I was able to relax while I was away knowing my cat was in good hands.

I highly recommend Paula, she stayed with my 6 months old goldendoodle for 7 days and took a great care of her, sent me pictures and kept me posted. Paula is very sweet person and I'm sure your dog will love her as much Molly did.

Safety, trust & environment

I live alone and most of the time, when I cat sit, it’s chill. There’s a lot of park within my area and it’s an animal-friendly neighborhood. I also have a yard fenced roof deck, a dog run and wash area in my complex. IMPORTANT: If your dog is pretty aggressive and can’t be tamed with a simple command, please find a new sitter. If your dog barks at almost anything at any time of the day, humps animals, and doesn’t listen, I’d rather have you find someone who has more tolerance for your pet. I live in an apartment and I can’t anger my neighbors just because your dog doesn’t know how to behave properly. I have had dogs who are quiet and calm when left being by themselves. If yours is one of them, then feel free to message me.

A typical day

Play catch, walk around the neighborhood, exercise, run. I’m pretty much active. We can also cuddle and just chill in my place. That way your pet can get some rest and relaxation.

PLEASE, POR FAVOR, let me know about your pet’s behavior, if they get aggressive, excited, or tense. Also, bring the treats, food, food and water containers, lash and all their stuff when you plan me to board your pet. I don’t have any pets atm so these things don’t come in handy for me. Please be respectful of your sitters’ time. Always make sure to double check rates before asking or booking for a request. My pet peeves are hagglers. I open my home to your pets to take care of them, so please be considerate when booking. Thank you!
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.
