Leave your Paws in Safe Hands

Pet care experience

Not only have I had my own animals most of my life but for 3 or 4 years I was also a foster home for the breed Weimaraner. Animals are like my kids and so will be your animals.

Paula was great! She took great care of my Sheba. She sent pictures and updates all day and she was very flexible. I would recommend Paula to everyone.

Paula was incredible! Oscar loved spending time with her and her husband. From the daily updates she provided, it was clear they made him very comfortable and he settled right in quickly. She took the time to understand his feeding schedule and process which helped for when we returned. Provided lots of snacks and cuddles to make him feel at home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter.

Coco had an amazing time and I can tell she felt right at home! I am grateful she enjoyed her time and had a huge yard to run around in! Paula and her husband really showed Coco lots of love! ❤️
