Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced pet sitter
I am very patient and loving with the pets I take care of. I try to create a true sanctuary at my apartment and a stress-free environment for the pet while away from home. Growing up, we had a huge Saint Bernard dog and later a Turkish Angora cat for many years. This is how I developed unconditional love for my furry friends. I also have some experience taking care of birds. I am open to any challenge, though. I make sure that your pet is very well groomed during its stay and is not left alone for too long. My building is tranquil and doesn't have loud noises that can scare most kitties and doggies. :-) There are plenty of birds and squirrels to watch out for outside large windows. So fun! I send plenty of videos and photos, multiple and daily, so it is also a stress-free experience for pet owners. I can do some dog and cat training and administer medication if needed.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Valari is so accommodating. He plays fetch with Mattie and walks her multiple times a day. She can barely contain her excitement everytime I drop her off and I always know she’s is good hands.
Valari was again amazing! He took Mattie for the night and she ran up to him as soon as she him. He went above and beyond as always and played fetch with her and walked her multiple times.
Valari is simply the best! My dog, Mattie, has stayed with him multiple times. She’s always so excited to see him, and I can relax knowing she’s in good hands. Valari takes Mattie on multiple walks and plays fetch with her. She is not good with other dogs, and that is never a problem for Valari. He sends pictures and updates. He always follows all of my instructions and gives Mattie all the items I send her with. My dog is older now so she has to take supplements and pain killers. Valari administers these pills with no problem. I’m about to book Valari for the second time this week!
Valari always does a great job taking care of Ruby! He's very consistent with sending pictures and updates I highly recommend him!
Valari is the best! This is the second time Mattie has stayed with him because I was so happy the first time. She was so excited when she saw Valari and I was able to relax knowing she’s in good hands. He took her out on walks and to play fetch multiple times throughout the day. He sent me pictures and videos letting me know how much fun Mattie was having. Mattie isn’t good with dogs and I know that Valari can handle being out with her around other dogs. I can’t say enough good things and will definitely be booking with Valari again!
I feel so lucky to have come across Valari’s profile! From the very beginning, communication was clear, friendly, and reassuring:) I could tell right away that my dog was in caring hands and I was sent regular updates which included photos and videos. My dog tends to be shy around other dogs and Valari handled this with so much patience and care. It is clear that Valari is an animal lover and truly went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was comfortable and cared for. I will definitely be a returning customer and highly recommend this sitter for absolute peace of mind while being away from your pet :) thank you Valari!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live alone in a private and spacious apartment with plenty of space for anything my pets may need while they are away from home. Pets love watching birds and squirrels outside my windows.
A typical day
I make sure to set a play time, depending on the pet. I go away from what they want to ensure they are comfortable in a new environment, especially for cats. For dogs, I provide 2-3 walks a day, and for high-energy dogs, I make sure they get to run around at the park plenty.
