About Paula

Hi there! I'm Paula, an animal enthusiast with a lifelong love for dogs and cats. Having grown up surrounded by furry companions, I deeply understand the special bond they bring to our lives. Currently on the longest stretch without a pet, I miss that connection, which led me to offer my assistance to those in need of pet companionship.

Known among friends as the go-to person for pet care during vacations, I've looked after dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. With five years of experience in a pet-friendly accommodation, I've taken care of guests' dogs by providing food, playtime, and companionship during their day trips, sending reassuring updates for their peace of mind.

I currently offer services like dog walking, pet and house sitting, and daytime visits. I'm experienced in administering simple oral and topical medications. Understanding each pet's unique needs and preferences is something I prioritize. Whether it's an active game of fetch or more mentally stimulating activities like puzzles, I tailor my interactions to suit their individual tastes.

During visits, I'm not just there for the basics – I'll engage in play, clean litter boxes, brush them, and more, based on their and your preferences. My reliability and responsibility are traits you can count on. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have; I'm here to help create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your furry friends.

House Sitting
Divya, 2024-09-09

Us and our 2 pups were very happy with Paula's time house sitting our pups. She was very communicative before and during her house sits. We felt our pups were well cared for. We could tell from the moment she met our pups she was someone who knew what she was doing, asking all the right questions, giving the pups an appropriate quantity of treats etc. Would definitely recommend Paula and will be requesting her services in the future also.
