Pet care experience

Walks, Runs, Play! Cats & Dogs 🐾

I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets in many different life stages and personalities. I have a 15 year old senior Chihuahua who has been through surgeries and illnesses, and through attentive care, patience, daily walks, and lots of love, she is still healthy, happy, and strong today. I also rescued an adult cat from the street who is now around 3–4 years old. Helping him adjust taught me patience, understanding, and how important it is to make animals feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I have an energetic 8-month-old kitten who keeps me active and experienced with younger pets as well. I am also a runner who’s ran the Chicago marathon, I am prepared to keep up with high energy pups! My pets are truly my family, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. Under my care, your pets will be treated with the same patience, attention, love, and priority that I give my own.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your pet in your home and always follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine and comfort. I understand how important it is to keep things consistent for animals, so I will make sure to follow all feeding schedules, care notes, and any special directions you provide. I will also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away, including messages, photos, and any important notes about how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep you fully informed and reassured. Most importantly, I will care for your pet in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable, your home, so they can stay relaxed, secure, and stress-free while receiving attentive and loving care.

Paulina has been wonderful with our two dogs! She is caring, reliable, and always so attentive to their needs. It’s easy to see how much she genuinely loves animals, and our dogs absolutely adore her. We especially appreciate how patient and gentle she is with them. She treats our dogs with so much love and care, and we always feel at ease knowing they’re in such good hands. We’re very grateful to have Paulina caring for our dogs and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and loving dog walker!

At this time, I can not take any more repeat clients who need morning or early afternoon walks/drop-in visits on weekdays. However, I am available after 4 PM on weekdays for walks/drop-in visits. My weekends have open availability as well. For house sitting I am mostly available on weekends as well. I’m happy to answer any questions!
