Retired caregiver who loves dogs

Pet care experience

Your pet will have a fully fenced third acre property on the ocean side of Parksville to explore and enjoy. Where appropriate your pet will have beach access, on leash walks, and off leash opportunities. I have experience giving oral medications and injections of insulin where needed.

Parker had a great 2 days at Paula’s house. Paula was very welcoming to us and Parker. She has a wonderful, fenced backyard so that Parker could run/play freely. We would not hesitate to have Parker stay at Paula’s in the future.

Paula took exceptional care of Penny who is a senior and requires more than regular care. Penny felt very comfortable at her home, ate well and slept well. Paula has a very large grassy yard for her to roam around. We will be definitely be back!

My wife and I were facing a health emergency and needed a dog sitter on short notice. Paula was very accommodating in helping us make a booking for our dog Auggie through Rover.com. Paula's professionalism allowed me to attend to my wife's medical issue without any additional worries about Auggie, who is like another family member to us. When I dropped off Auggie, Paula gave me a tour of the large, fenced-in backyard where Auggie could roam without fear of escaping. Despite the sudden change in her surroundings, Auggie appeared quite happy and contented when I picked her up after the three-day visit. I would not hesitate to book Paula again if we need a Dog Sitter in the future.

We needed someone to watch our 6yr old Shih Tzu for the weekend. Paula was exactly what our dog needed. She took great care of our pup, sent us photo updates, and super easy to communicate with.
