Paula's Paw-Some Dawghouse
Pet care experience
DogVacay/Rover Host since 2012. Rowdy, our male chocolate lab, is super friendly and loves to have playmates over to visit. Your furry-babies are welcome for daily play-dates, sleepovers, as well as last minute drop-ins. If you have an extra special vacay planned with extended time away, we would love the opportunity to have your pet spend time with us. You may also reach out to me if your are visiting NOLA and can’t find pet-friendly accommodations. We will do our best to accommodate your beloved pets. Our cozy art-deco cottage is located in a pet-friendly neighborhood. We are within 2 blocks of the Mississippi River levee and take several walks per day. Our home offers a doggie-door with access to our large and secured fenced in yard. While here they tend to run around, romp with other doggies and play hide and seek in our back yard oasis filled with lots of greenery. On those doggie-day afternoons you will find us lounging around under our covered patio or sunning out by our large towering oaks. We also have a puppy pool available especially on our humid summer days to cool them off. I am home the majority of the time but will run off for 1-3 hours for daily errands. During your pet’s visit with us, I will keep you updated by sending candid pics of your pups day-to-day activities. Hopefully having this peace of mind will allow you to enjoy your vacay or business travel as well. We truly love sharing our home with our furry paw-some guests, my hope is to provide them the next best thing to being at home. I have no objections to any breed or size but it is vital that they are social and play nice with others. If you are considering having your pups stay with us, please send a message to set up a meet-n-greet. Thanks in advance for the opportunity and trust you are giving us, Rowdy & I look forward to meeting you. "DOGS are not our whole LIFE but they make our lives WHOLE" "A house is not a home without PAW-PRINTS" All you need is LOVE......and a DOG " "Don't forget to KISS your DOG goodnight" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We would love to have a house full of dogs but our limit is 3 guests max over-night furry guests. To save the dates, be sure to plan ahead and book in advance. Keep in mind —Holiday weeks fill up very Quickly. PLEASE NOTE: ALL guests must be up to date on vaccinations, flea protection and spayed or neutered if over 1 year old. Please bring vet records at meet-n-greet. Additional rates of $5 will apply for puppies. *** Drop-Offs & Pick-Ups are suggested between 7am- 7:00 pm. Over-night boarding rates are $45 per 24 hour stays. Additional Day/care rates will apply for pick-ups after noon. In those cases where your flight times vary from very early morning departures to late evening arrivals please plan on booking another nights stay. As always, I will remain as flexible as possible.

Paula was thoughtful and intentional with how she made Gilligan AND I comfortable when Gil stayed with her. She made sure to send pictures and videos, answered all of my questions and was patient with my nerves! (It is stressing to leave a dog in a new place!) Her backyards is beautiful and perfect for dogs! I am so grateful Paula was referred to me by a friend. She will be my go to for my dog when I go out of town again.
Jax had a great time a Paula's. He didn't want to leave when I picked him up. I would definitely use her again!
Mrs. Paula was absolutely amazing!!!! Where do I start?? Well she reached out to me a couple weeks prior to arrange a phone call since we were coming from out of state for our wedding. She was super friendly and very accommodating with our unsure times on drop off and pick up. The dogs loved her home and the beautiful back yard. Her home is perfect for doggies of all sizes. Mrs. Paula then went above and beyond by dropping our girls off at our wedding venue and picking them up so they could be a part of our special day!!!! And it doesn’t stop there, when we picked the doggies up she provided us with a brand new doggie bag, special doggie treats, and little post it notes with her contact info!!! Thank you making us feel so special and taking care of our precious girls like they were your own!!!
I am very impressed with Paula. My husband said her house is like a doggy heaven with the way it's set up. She took such good care of my 10 week old puppy, Wilson. He had so much fun playing with the other dogs. He was one pooped out puppy when he got home. I feel very comfortable leaving my puppy with her.

Home
Information Paula T. would like to know about your pet
Are they socialized and interactive with other dogs? Do they mark in the house or chew up toys? Have you noticed any food aggression? Afraid of thunder or heavy rainstorms or have Seperation Anxiety? Do they cause Destruction? What is done to remedy the situation? Medication or Crate?
A typical day
Lots of love and affection are given. I encourage playtime in the yard and if they are leash trained I do offer daily walks around the neighborhood. We make frequent stops to visit doggies along the way.
