VIP Treatment for VIP Pups
Hey, Im Paulo 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years, including my own black lab who lived a long, happy life. She was diabetic for her last 5 years, so I gained hands on experience with insulin injections and specialized care, which means I’m confident with pups who may need a little extra attention. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from tiny chihuahuas to playful poodles to strong pitbulls. Whether your dog loves to run around the park all day or prefers a relaxing day by my side, I’ll match their energy and make sure they feel happy and loved. Some of my skills include giving oral medications, administering injections, walking, and basic grooming. Most importantly, I love spending quality time with dogs, playing, walking, or just keeping them company. Your little pups will be in safe, and caring hands with me!

Ratings and reviews
This was my first time leaving my dog to someone outside of the family in my 10 years of having her and I'm so glad it was with Paulo! He was very communicative and understanding of my many requirements for her care. He's responsible and kind. I will definitely book with him again for any upcoming trips I have! Thank you, Paulo!!!

Paulo was very kind a loving with our puppy! He has a dog of his own that ours loved to play with! We would recommend Paulos services!

Paulo was absolutely brilliant with my old man. Attentive and caring, easy going, and gave so much love and care. Obviously, leaving your pup at home with somebody else is never easy, but I felt totally at ease my dog was in great hands. He answered all my questions and provided updates. I highly recommend!

Always happy with Paulo! He’s amazing with our boys and we trust him 100%.


Paulo and his family took such amazing care of my dogs. I escaped the fires in Altadena and needed someone to watch my dogs while I drove around picking up the pieces. Every day that they stayed with Paulo, they were happy and relaxed when I got them back home. And every morning they were excited to get dropped off. The peace of mind that Paulo and his family brought me, in a difficult time, was such a blessing. Thanks guys.


Paulo was great with our boys. He has experience as a dog owner himself especially with older dogs who require medication. Would hire him again.


Calendar and availability
Schedule
Dog sitting is what I do full time, so I have open availability. That means I can be flexible with your schedule, whether your pup needs daily walks, long play sessions, or overnight care. I have church every Sunday from 11:30-12:45, and I’ll be transparent if I have any other scheduling conflicts as to not leave you surprised.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
For housesitting, I will make sure to respect any boundaries placed, and my attention will go towards your dog solely and making sure they are fed given water and cared for as well as going for walks and runs. For dogsitting we have a small fenced backyard for the dog to run around and my neighborhood is very dog friendly and perfect for walking dogs around and we also allow for the dogs to roam around in our home.
Pets
A typical day
I will provide a full stimulating day for the dog going to parks or beaches and making sure they are being well kept and getting some exercise. And always in accordance to any boundaries set by the parents.
