Second Mom for your Fur Babies

Pet care experience

I'm an animal lover. We've had our own dogs since I was 8, I love walking, feeding, training. I have also worked for a vet in the kennel, so I am experienced in handling all different personalities. We had a litter a few years back and that experience was so rewarding. Puppy training comes easy to me. I love teaching the pups. When I was in high school I was requested to train a few of our friends dogs after they heard how receptive our pets were. Its second nature to me. My favorite dogs are the BIG ones. The bigger the better! Something new about me: I just started fostering with Suncoast Animal and found that very rewarding. It's important to me that I make a difference.

Amazing stay! Valarie took care of my pups when I wasn’t able to and sent me lots of photos and videos. She booked with short notice which was so appreciated and was flexible with drop off and pick up. Her home was clean and safe with an amazing yard for my dogs. Will be booking again!

Valarie was amazing! We went out of town on an international trip for almost two weeks and she was constantly updating us with pictures of our two fur babies, which put our minds at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. She worked with our youngest dog on his manners and played fetch with him! When we picked them up, our dogs seemed very happy and healthy. Will definitely use her services again! 😌

Valerie was absolutely amazing , I have just adopted a dog and was so worried about how he would do with someone new , and she made him have the best experience. She sent me constant pictures so I was at ease , even though he had a little stomach troubles and made a mess she was so loving with him and made sure he was comfortable. Couldn’t recommend a better person for sitting. 10/10 will do again :)

Valarie was great! She sent me multiple photos and gave me regular updates which were much appreciated. They had a big yard to run around in and were definitely loved on!

Safety, trust & environment

I don't have any animals currently. I dog sit a lot for my friends. My property is on 3/4 acre fully fenced for bigger dogs. The living area of the house is open with 3 sliding glass doors overlooking the backyard. Out front there's a small area off the carport that is covered by the roof, but has dirt and grass. Generally, dogs not wanting to pee in rain go here. Its perfect!

Information Valarie B. would like to know about your pet

Are they house broken.. or specific commands you say when they need to "go". Do they like other dogs? How are they with rain? storms? Are they allowed people food? How playful or couch potato are they usually?

A typical day

We can walk around the neighborhood, or if ok I can bring him or her to the run club and we can walk or run the bridges. Or a leisurely stroll at the causeway. Bring your favorite toy and we can play fetch or keep away, or even hide and seek.
