Loving care for small dogs ❤️

Pet care experience

Hello pet parent, for many years Paula’s Paws has been my passion side business as I cherish my time as a dog carer because they bring so much joy into my life! They make me so happy and I love them. I take care of small dogs only and I give as much love, care and attention as possible as if they are my own. So if your furbies love kisses and cuddles then you've come to the right place! I consider myself reliable, ive never cancelled a booking in all these years. My longest pet care relationship is 6 years ❤️ and I like to build long term bonds with puppies and experience them growing and flourishing. I always offer an initial free meet & greet to learn about your pet and ensure we are comfortable with each other. I have experience training and caring for puppies and can also administer medicine. I am a responsible and conscientious carer who is trusted with spare sets of house keys for permanent keeping. I offer offer house sitting across London providing exceptional care of dogs and their home, I go on at least 3x times a day which includes one long walk for 45 mins or up to several hours on a weekend. I'm a very active person that loves fitness; running and walking is a pleasure for me too so your dog will get plenty of exercise and even a jog in the park or the river if they enjoy that. On my days off work I sometimes love taking dogs in my care for day trips for multiple hours to a larger park or woods and even heritage house and gardens, using public transport if allowed 😁

Paula was absolutely great with our Matilda. It was the first time that we left our Jack Russell with a sitter, and we couldn’t had made a better choice than Paula. She’s a very experienced, caring sitter, that handled challenging situations with mastering and kept us onboard all the time.

Bob has had such a lovely time with Paula, who shared plenty of photos with us during the day and kept us informed regularly about what he was doing. We know Bob loved Paula a lot because he keeps trying to walk us to her place every time we take him out. I would 100% recommend her and not hesitate to use her services again. Thank you so much!

Paula was amazing from the very start, with swift communication and organising an initial meet and greet to meet us and our dog, Luna, who loved her immediately! It’s clear that Paula is a dog lover who was very sweet with Luna and gave her lots of love and affection. On the day of Luna’s walk, Paula sent us lots of photos and updates, which were greatly appreciated, and it looked like Luna had a fantastic time. We have already booked Paula for another walk. Thanks Paula! ?

Paula has been great with Frank, Knowing how to deal with any initial anxiety and keeping on top of his various medical needs, medication, exercise etc. All the while, she kept us up to date with pictures and videos; we can’t recommend Paula enough and will defiantly be using her again!

I always try and follow the routine that the dog already has, if the dog is allowed to sleep in bed with the parent then I will sleep with them too as I love sleeping in bed with dogs. If you leave clear instructions then I will follow them. I really love spending as much time with dogs as possible as I am a sitter first and foremost for the pure joy I get from dogs so I love to maximise cuddle time 🥰

Information Paula Y. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any sensitive behavioural traits I should be aware of such as if they are anxious around certain types of dogs, people or areas

A typical day

I love playing fetch in the house, going for long walks or jogs and on days off work having day trips out to discover the outdoor nature of London. As I have been a sitter for so long I also have become friends with many pet parents, if your dog likes to socialise then I can arrange to meet up for playdates with dogs Im taking care of and their dogs. If I am working then I will still fit in walks before during and after work and there's always time inbetween for play and cuddles :) above all, i adapt the days to what your dog needs most, all dogs are different.

I LOVE cuddles and kisses - its my greatest skillset and I am passionate about giving attentive care and putting the needs of the dog first. I am a graphic designer and I do have to go into the office 3x days a week in St Pauls, however before I go I would give dogs a long walk/run in the mornings and as soon as I return home straight after work. I enjoy taking lots of photos and videos of your special family member to send to you and will happily give you regular updates. 
I hope to hear from you shortly! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Paula’s Paws 🐶💗.
