Welcome to Paul's Paws

Mastering Calm, Confident Walks in the City

At Paul’s Paws, I offer structured dog walking, socialization, and behavior support designed specifically for urban dog owners in Vancouver.

As a certified dog walking professional and city resident, I specialize in helping dogs and their humans navigate the challenges of city life — from busy sidewalks and scooters to crowded patios, traffic, and public spaces.

My approach focuses on calm, structured urban walks that build trust, improve leash behavior, and reduce reactivity. Using my WalkSMART™ method, I guide you through real-world situations so you can become a more confident handler while helping your dog become a well-mannered, adaptable companion in the city.
