Pet care experience

Your pets home away from home 🏡 🐕

Growing up, I always wanted to be a veterinarian. I soon realized it wouldnt be the job for me because I would want to take all the sick pets home to care for them 🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ I've always had animals since I was young and taking care of them come naturally. Im always the person my family calls on for pet care and advice. From puppies and kittens to the oldies I've had them all and can administer medication if needed.

My puppy, Daisy, had a great time with Paulena! It was my first time ever using Rover and I’m glad I was able to leave Daisy here. I felt very comfortable knowing that she had another pup for mine to play with and sent me updates on Daisy.

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Paulena took amazing care of my dog, Krypto, and treated him like their own. From the start, they were communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. Krypto felt comfortable right away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and attention to detail—they made sure Krypto stayed happy, active, and well cared for the entire time. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and go above and beyond. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with them again!

Paulena was so sweet and I trust that Leo's time with her was well spent! She stayed in constant communication (tons of pictures!!) and was easy to reach :)
