Highlights
Pet care experience
Responsible, Caring & VACCINATED
Big or small, seniors or pups, beagles or bulldogs - dogs are my buddies and I love taking care of them while their parents are away.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
An animal’s comfort is a must so regular walks and routines help them feel safe while their parents are away. I find that letting the dog establish the page of our relationship helps and am patient for them to come to me in between walks. Walks to warm them up though and once we are buddies I’m all for pets and couch cuddles.
Ratings and reviews
Val was so caring, thoughtful, and resourceful with my anxious dog, Lucy. I really appreciated how communicative Val was, and how much time and energy she put into figuring out ways to put Lucy at ease. I would be eager to hire Val again and highly recommend her!
We feel totally comfortable leaving our dogs in Val's very capable hands. We will use Val again in the future. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Val to other pet owners. Thanks Val for taking great care of the dogs and our home.
Val stayed with my dog for three days. She was very attentive to his needs and sent lots of photos. She was very responsible and left the house in good condition when she left.
We cannot speak highly enough of Val. We've used Val's services in the past and she delivers above and beyond what is expected.
Val has watched our two dogs for two extended stays in the last year. My wife and I are very lucky to be able to count on her to take care of them. She sends us regular photo updates and it’s clear from the updates and the dogs behavior when we return that they have a lot of fun and feel genuinely loved when she is around! 10/10, thank you Val for taking such wonderful care of our 2 babies!!!
Its good to know our dogs are in great hands. We will continue to use Val when dog / house sitting services are required.

Schedule
Dogs usually instantly like me and warm up fast. I’m an empathetic animal lover (vegetarian for many years and animal rights activist) and love dogs and cats. I take pride in feeding them, walking them, and making sure their mom or dad’s apartments stay super clean.

- Mostly prefer friendly dogs- but even choosey pups have warmed up to me. All breeds and sizes are my friends and I enjoy seeing big dogs keep it cool and little dogs use their voice.
