Safety, trust & environment

I would adhere to how you take care of your pets in your home. I am very comfortable walking dogs as I walk mine twice a day. They are both over 50 pounds and are reactive to other dogs and small animals. I have been training them so I would feel comfortable with any type of walker.

Information Val Y. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog is reactive to other dogs, people, small animals. Any other personality traits that I should know about?

A typical day

I like to play and cuddle with cats/dogs if they are willing and want to. I love going on walks with dogs and just giving them the care that they need.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have two dogs that are everything to me. I have training experience with my two dogs and will treat your fur baby like my own. I also have experience giving meds as one of my current dogs needs daily meds.

Val is so wonderful with our nervous dog! She is patient and goes out of her way to get down with Gina and make him feel comfortable. She’s the best!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
