Driver's Story

Vicki Dawson

I am a retired police officer and have been a driver for Paws en route since the beginning of 2021.  Working for Paws en route is not only rewarding financially but more importantly, everyone in the company is a pet parent and has the common goal of ensuring the safety and well-being of all pets.    I love pets and have many fur babies of my own.  I treat and care for all the pets as if they are my own family.  I love seeing all the cute pets and taking them to the vets, groomers, daycare, airport or to their forever homes.  The only sad part is when I have to drop them off.
