Trusted pet care

Pet care experience

Hi- I’m Val. I offer in home house sitting in Blaine. I have a quiet environment and do not have other pets or animals. I seek to provide your pet with individualized care. I want your dog to be comfortable and at ease while you are worry free. I treat your animals like my own and can accommodate to your animals special needs. I adapt to all breeds and preferences. I am flexible and dependable and provide clear lines of communication. I allow the dogs free roam of the house and they can be on the furniture and bed, if desired. About me: I recently finished grad school and found with my space time I wanted to care for dogs again. I dog sit extensively pre pandemic and loved every second of it. I continued to dog sit for family over the last few years and decided I wanted to open it to new connections on Rover.

Val was very thorough in verifying instructions and my dogs needs. She was timely in her communication. Most importantly, my dogs seemed very comfortable with her. Upon my return they were happy to see me, though it was evident they were well cared for and loved.

Val was great for a drop in visit. She communicated well and our dog Phoebe loved getting outside while we had to be away.

Information Val S. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know their daily routine- feeding, walking, sleeping, and habits. It’s also helpful to know temperament, allergies, and medication. Can I provide treats? Is there a preferred contact or animal hospital in case of emergency? Anything else you think is helpful.

A typical day

I love going on daily walks! Currently I try to walk 2 miles each day and enjoy having a furry friend with me. Blaine is full of park and trails I enjoy walking around. For long walks, I enjoy going around TPC golf course.
