Valarie is wonderful…always 5 Star care and service! When we are away from home, we miss our kitties, but thanks to Valarie we don’t worry about them; we know they are in good hands. This allows us to fully enjoy ourselves when away. She is reliable, caring, and has a love for animals. She has a way about her that makes our skittish, shy cats trust her. I have dubbed her the Cat Whisperer. We 100% recommend her!

Schedule

I currently work part-time at home, so I am available all day for bathroom breaks, feeding, and playtime. My husband also works at home and takes dogs on walks or runs. I have 4 boys, ages 14+, that love animals and can help with any needs.

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs are allowed to roam free in our home. Doors are shut into areas they shouldn't go, like bedrooms. We use safety gates to separate dogs from different families when needed. I have a large yard that is fenced with a lock on the gate. I make sure each dog gets plenty of playtime outside, several times a day. We daily pet, play with, and give attention to each dog every day.

A typical day

We have a large yard for dogs to run and play in. We love to throw balls for fetch or any fun toy you may bring for your dog to play with.
