Reviews
Chuck was so happy and cared for in best way by Val. Cannot wait to continue !
Val is the absolute best! From the moment he met my dog, it was clear he had a natural connection with animals—gentle, attentive, full of warmth, and fun. My dog Osa loves Val. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, a hike, or an overnight stay, I know my dog is in loving, capable hands when she spends time with Val. He sends thoughtful, funny updates and sweet photos that always make me smile -- and make time away from Osa a little easier. I can't recommend him enough—he's not just a sitter, he's part of our pack!

I have a fenced yard and reliable transportation to visit the dog park, local trailheads, or in town walks. Pets will get plenty of exercise if needed, and lots of nurturing and attention at home.

Let me know if your dog(s) have any behavioral challenges or special needs ahead of time. How are they with other animals that we may encounter while on an outing? How are they on local trails and at the dog park?
A typical day
Walks and visits to parks will be taken if you confirm that you are comfortable with them socializing. They will have my full attention when at home, or when taking it easy after a day of adequate activity.
