Calmness mixed in with Excitement
Pet care experience
During my college years I co-walked a dog named Harper (a golden retriever) who was awesome and made me fall in love with dog walking. I volunteered at the MSPCA Boston in the cat room but you can always find me in the dog room playing the dogs and teaching new tricks. I now have my own dog, Cairo, and I’ve had her for over two years now. I rescued her from Florida, from a kill shelter. I would like to get into fostering dogs in the near future and would love to open my home up for a dog in need to help humans realize the potential of dogs once given the chance. Cairo is always looking for a new buddy to walk with and I know this experience would make her happy too!
Reviews
I just wanted to extend kind words about Paula,as she has been an absolute blessing to me and my dog Maxine. Paula treats my dog like she is her own. Paula is always professional, cheerful, and goes above and beyond for Maxine. I know my dog is ALWAYS in good hands with Paula.
Paula LOVES dogs. she is the type of individuals that would see dogs pass by her and she would ask the owners if she could please pet them. Also Paula enjoys learning new facts and qualities about the different types of dog. If she is not sure about something she always asks the questions. She also volunteers at the MSPCA every week.

Information Paula W. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your dog is hyper - this will help me with coming into your home with a calmness rather than making your pet even more hyper. I would like to know if your dog is nervous/ shy - dogs that are nervous or shy typically need a little boost in confidence and are sometimes wary of people which would help me better approach your pet. I would like to know if your dog has any dietary restrictions - I wouldn't want to give your pet something they shouldn't be eating.
A typical day
I was a runner in high school and have recently gotten back into the sport. Your dog will be able to go on 25 minute runs with a 15 to 20 minute cool down walk. I'm pretty active and don't mind playing fetch especially if I get to show off my wicked long pitch.
