Safety, trust & environment

I would care for your pet as I would care for my own. I have a fenced in yard but I always make sure the gates are closed before my pup gets out, so I would do the same if you have a similar set up! I take safety very seriously. I always make sure their collars or harnesses are secure, especially for dogs that tend to be jumpy on walks.

Information Paulina C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there’s anything I can do to accommodate your pup. Whether that be any quirks or behaviors, I will do my best to make sure they’re well taken care of.

A typical day

I like to follow your pup’s lead when it comes to playtime. Whether it’s a round of tug-of-war, a game of fetch, or just a stroll with plenty of sniff breaks, I make sure they get the right mix of exercise, stimulation, and relaxation! My goal is for your pup to feel happy and cared for by the end of our time together. I also adjust daily activities based on the weather. If it’s too hot for long walks, we’ll cut our time outside short, but the fun doesn’t stop there. I’ll make sure your pup still gets plenty of indoor play, whether that’s tossing toys, giving belly rubs, or just enjoying some company!

Treating your pets like family

Pet care experience

PLEASE READ FOR REPEAT SERVICES: I am currently fully booked from the hours of 11 AM to 3 PM on Tuesdays, 10 AM to 1:30 PM and 2:30-3:30 PM on Wednesdays. 10:30 AM to 3 PM on Thursdays. I’m unable to take any more recurring clients unless requesting outside of the listed time frames. Thank you for your understanding! I’ve been around dogs my entire life! My family has had six dogs over the years, and now my fiancé and I care for our two dogs. I began taking full responsibility for my own dog in 2021, which gave me hands-on experience with everything from daily walks and training to building routines that keep pups happy and healthy! In early 2024, my dog, Hercules, was diagnosed with epilepsy. Caring for him has taught me how to calmly and confidently administer medication, stay consistent with daily routines, and provide comfort during stressful moments. These experiences have made me not only a more responsible pet owner, but also a compassionate and detail-oriented caregiver for any dog I look after. From seniors to puppies, and from anxious or reactive pups to those who need daily medication, I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds. These experiences have taught me to adapt to each dog’s personality and needs so they always feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I do my best to make sure they receive the same care as I give my own.

Paulina did a wonderful job with Kane. She was so attentive to all we had written down and she sent constant updates. She was super thoughtful and asked a lot of questions about him. I felt like she was so involved with him and cared so much. It gives me great peace of mind to have someone stay with him that is so thoughtful. I would recommend Paulina to anyone!

Paulina was absolutely wonderful and took care of my pup as if Winnie was her own. She made it stress free and easy being able to leave my up alone for the first time.
