There’s a particular kind of relief that comes from knowing your pet is genuinely cared for — not just managed, not checked off a list, but truly known: the toy they can’t sleep without, the zoomies after every single walk, the nightly bark that means it’s treat time, right down to their medication schedule. That’s the feeling behind every standard Pau Pair holds — backed by our founder’s 25+ years as an award-winning groomer, breeder of champion show Bichon Frises and Standard Poodles, and sole founder of an award-winning pet resort and spa. Pau Pair exists to close a gap families had felt for years but couldn’t quite name: the space between what pet care promised and what it actually felt like.
What mattered most to families was never the service itself — it was trust, consistency, and knowing that the person caring for their pet truly knew them. That conviction is the foundation everything here is built on.
That’s why every Pau Pair family is matched with a real team built around their pet — a primary sitter or stylist who knows your pet by name, plus a backup who knows them just as well. So even on the one day plans change, there’s never an unfamiliar face at an unfamiliar moment. It’s a team your pet gets to call their own.
What We Offer
Whether your pet needs a Professional Pet Au Pair in your home, an Elite Pet Stylist in our private mobile spa, or a dedicated walker every week — the level of care, the depth of the relationship, and the commitment to excellence are exactly the same.
In-Home Pet Care
One dedicated sitter. One backup introduced from day one. A care plan built entirely around your pet's personality, routine, and needs — from a 30-minute drop-in to a full week-long stay. Your home. Your pet. Their person.
Mobile Grooming & Spa
The van pulls up. Your stylist steps out. And your pet is the only one there. No waiting room, no other dogs barking down the hall — just a calm, private spa built entirely around them, on a rotation of six weeks or less. Most families land on a 2, 4, or 6 week schedule — whatever your dog's coat actually needs. For pets who have always struggled at the groomer, the difference is often immediate. It turns out the grooming was never the problem. The setting was.
Explore the Spa →Recurring Walking Program
The same sitter, the same time slot, every single week — booked quarterly, so your dog never has to wonder who's coming or when. The more you walk, the more you save, and the rate is locked in for the entire quarter.
Explore Platinum Pack →Locked in for the full quarter — the moment you join.
Every Pau Pair engagement begins with a complimentary consultation. We take the time to understand your pet's specific needs, establish a care plan, and ensure you have complete confidence before a single visit takes place.
Relationships built on trust, renewed with every visit
The greatest luxury we can offer isn't a service — it's the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pet is loved, understood, and cared for by someone they trust.
