Highlights
Pet care experience
Will love your pet like my own!
I became a dog lover 15+ years ago when my family got our first dog, Sir. Since then, I’ve loved dogs and have become the person friends/family/coworkers turn to do dog sitting. I’m a Nurse in Boston and have a fluctuating schedule but would love to fit in some walks or boarding when I can! I miss having a dog of my own in my life so taking care of yours I will treat it as my own! Also even though I am at work, my roommate also loves dogs so would be home with them while I’m at work until I come home so their needs during the day would be taken care of! My boyfriend has a cat that is 6yo and she is very chill/sweet but more of a scaredy cat who likes her own private space away from everyone. If a dog or another cat were to approach her she would most likely just hiss and move on about her day so a dog who is friendly towards cats/doesn’t care is perfect!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Paulina was wonderful with my pooch! Very attentive and a great communicator!
Plenty of pictures and attention, Paulina took great care of Benji!
Paulina is a genuine and compassionate animal lover. She is a hard worker and 100% reliable dog caregiver. My dog always greets her with a whipping tail when Paulina pulls into the driveway to dog sit and go for walks. I highly recommend Paulina if you are looking for someone who is reliable, genuine, energetic and will take great care of your pooch! You won't be disappointed!
Gets along well with all types of dogs and is well experienced walking them! Also caring to her own dog, and has dog-sit mine many times! She’s responsible and makes sure they’re fed, played with, and walked. She also has knowledge on dog care and conscious on what they can eat! I would highly recommend!
Paulina is my go to dog sitter. She is so responsible and does everything I request. I feel safe leaving my fur baby with her. Most importantly, my dog feels very comfortable with her and she treats him like her own. Paulina has this aura to her that all dogs seem to cling to her. I cannot highly recommend her enough!

Schedule
I work full time and can be home by 3/3:30 unless working an off shift. On weekends I have the most flexibility and on some weekdays after 3p I would be able to do walks or drop ins. I have a male roommate that WFH and loves dogs so he would be home with them while I am away during the day so they’re never fully alone unless he’s in office that day!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I’ve taken care of many of my family/friends dogs and I tend to like to stick to the schedule they are used to at home to help alleviate any stress that comes with a new environment. I have experience in giving medication to dogs including oral, IM, IV as well. I do now have a 6yo cat so want to make sure they are comfortable around a cat who is very chill and reserved.
Pets
A typical day
I live near the Arnold arboretum and Jamaica pond so I would like to go on walks around there as well as my neighborhood. I tend to not do busy dog parks for new clients as I would like to know for certain they are ok around other dogs but we have enough fun playing in the backyard!
