Pet Sitting in Allendale

“My dog Euka is large, energetic, and high anxiety, which can make walks challenging. Not only did Maria handle Euka with ease, but she also gave him his medicine without issue. Maria took Euka on a long 2 hour walk visiting several parks where he played in the grass. Euka is a bit of a sneaky escape artist, but Maria managed him perfectly ensuring he was safe and secure. I enjoyed the updates and clever photos, I would highly recommend Maria with full and complete trust. Thank you Maria!”

“Adrian was so patient with our mastiff Loki. He took the time to allow him to get used to him being there when we weren’t home. He even brought him a treat! Quickly, Loki warmed up to him. We were only gone for 3 days this time, but I would definitely book Adrian for a longer trip. I really appreciate his kind and professional updates with his visits so I could enjoy my trip and know Loki was being well cared for.”

About: I’ve never known life without animals — I grew up surrounded by pets, and caring for them as part of the family has always come naturally. Over the years, I’ve become a trusted house and pet sitter for friends, neighbors, and family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs — from administering medication to going the extra mile to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m committed to treating your pet like my own and your home with the utmost respect, always leaving things better than I found them. I currently have full flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused, personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or special requests, I make it a priority to be present and attentive. Caring for a pet is a responsibility I approach with the utmost respect and care, especially when entrusted to enter someone’s home. I understand that leaving your pet, even for a short time, can be stressful and full of worry. That’s why I make it a priority to follow all instructions carefully—feeding, medication, playtime, and quiet moments—while creating a calm, comfortable environment. To help ease your mind, I’ll regularly send photos and updates so you can see your pet happy and well cared for. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, content pet and a home just as you left it (or even better!).

“Jahquan was a great sitter for our two dogs. We had him do multiple check ins during our few days away and throughout that time he was very nice and had great communication. I would definitely use him again in the future!”

About: I rescued my dog, Skoshi, from a shelter in Okinawa, Japan. We spent 16 delightful years together romping across the U.S. I have extensive experience with dogs, including: walking, playing, feeding, elderly dog care, administering medication and bring joy and love into dog's lives. I am currently a full time dog walker/sitter. I have plenty of time to walk, play and care for your dog/pet. I'm available for walks (30-60 minutes), play dates and pet/house sitting. I'm generally available between 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM and overnight stays when sitting. When your pet(s) are with me, they have my full attention.

I'm excited to reinforce any training (sit, lay, stay, heal, etc.) as part of a walk or play session using (approved) treats and positive reinforcement.

“Valerie is amazing! I had never needed to hire anyone to look after my dog before, so I had a bit of anxiety about leaving him, but Valerie soon put me at ease. Norman looked forward to Valerie’s visits every day, and it was clear that she not only has plenty of experience but also is incredibly compassionate. My dog is older, and she was great about giving him the right amount of activity and attention based on his behavior each day. I’ll be recommending Valerie to everyone I know.”

About: I connect with animals in general, but I've always had a special connection with dogs. I've always understood them and love to get down on the floor and play with any pet I see (but especially my dog!) I have a flexible schedule, so I'm able to be around my (and your!) animals all day. I'm able to come to your place to walk a dog, or bring them to my place (if needed) I have a fenced in yard, and also a pool. if your pet enjoys swimming, they're welcome to jump in my pool to cool off.

About: I have been surrounded by cats since I was a baby. I currently have two cats and would love to take care of yours like it was mine! I was trying to make a cat only profile but I could not find the only option. I'm currently trying to build a playpen out of my garage to board cats only. Each cat will have a big size enclosure and have individual brakes to play and roam around the playpen by himself. I plan to keep them separate from other possible guest cats to avoid any physical confrontation. You can bring your own food, toys and bed. Let me know if you have any questions or if you cat needs any special accommodations. I'll hope to hear from you!
