Reviews

Paula is the BEST DOG SITTER! We have a mixed breed puppy (just over a year now), and she has so much energy- but always seems happy/tired when she comes home. Paula is very kind and attentive- and you can immediately tell is a dog lover. Everyone should want someone like her watching their pup while they are away.

I had a great experience with boarding our dog with Paula. Would highly recommend her to others! Thanks Paula!

Lexi had a great time with Paula and Scoobie. She sent lots of pictures of the activities they did while we were away. When we picked Lexi up, upon our return, she ran back to Paula and her husband to get some final loving from them both. Great to return to a happy dog!

Paula took such great care of Wally! He was so happy and healthy when we got home. He had such a great time with Shooby, too - really wonderful! We were away the longest we’ve ever left him and felt so comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. She sent photos regularly to keep us updated and it made our day!
