Highlights
Pet care experience
You got a friend in me :)
I’ve been surrounded by pets since I was very young, growing up with both dogs and cats and developing a genuine love for animals of all kinds, including rabbits and hamsters. Caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I currently have a small Bichon Frise, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Because I have my own dog at home, I focus on caring for small and medium-sized breeds, where I can ensure a comfortable and safe environment for everyone. While I don’t take on larger breeds, I’m more than happy to provide attentive, reliable care for smaller dogs—whether that’s walks, day sitting, or home visits. Your pet will be treated with the same care, patience, and affection I give my own.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Paula is one of the most genuinely caring people I know, and that kindness shines especially brightly in the way she cares for animals. As a vegetarian, her compassion for their wellbeing is a true reflection of her values and how she chooses to live her life. She doesn’t just love animals—she deeply respects them and always puts their needs first. She has always had pets as part of her family, from cats to dogs, and she forms such strong, loving bonds with each one. Her current dog is incredibly lucky to have her, and it’s clear how attentive, patient, and gentle she is every single day. Paula goes above and beyond to make sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and happy, and she intuitively understands their needs. I would trust Paula completely with any pet, knowing they would be cared for with the same love and dedication she gives her own.

Schedule
My schedule is provided a week in advance, so it can vary slightly from week to week. However, this also allows me to plan ahead and offer good availability for pet care. I’m generally available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I’m flexible when it comes to arranging walks or home visits in advance. I always do my best to help

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
As a pet owner, I make my dog Freddy’s happiness and wellbeing a top priority. He gets plenty of walks every day—even if that means spending my work breaks outside with him. We usually enjoy shorter walks around the block or by the river, along with one or two longer walks in the park for extra exercise and stimulation. At home, I’ve created a very dog-friendly environment filled with toys, cozy blankets, and (of course) treats. While the whole house is welcoming to dogs, the sofa is definitely a favourite spot for relaxing and feeling comfortable.
