Professional Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! I am Valene. I am a full-time professional pet sitter. I have my own liability and pet insurance and offer elite services for your pets. I follow the commands your pets are accustomed to, I provide positive reinforcement training, proper leash etiquette and enrichment activities. I am certified in pet reiki energy healing and can provide a calm atmosphere. I have over 2 decades of experience caring for pets including volunteering at the humane society since 2002, managing 12 veterinary clinics at the executive level, and managing the animal wildlife rescues in my neighborhood. I assisted as a vet tech in my past which gives me extra knowledge to ensure your pet is healthy and safe. I know how to manage pet diabetes and senior care and can handle very fragile pets and their tedious care plan routines - with confidence. I am flexible, easily reachable, reliable, and am able to do same day and last minute requests to accommodate your needs. I love my clients and my pets! My premium house sitting service includes: -Ensuring your pets routines will be followed -Cleaning and sanitizing the areas of your house I used (kitchen, dishwasher, bathtub, toilet) -Washing the bedding and towels I used -Taking out the garbage/recycling according to your collection day -Retrieving mail and packages -Putting back everything I used exactly where I found it You will come back from vacation to a clean home without having to tidy up. This is an extra touch I provide!

Valene did an amazing job winning over my doggo (and me)! She is prompt & professional, aligned on expectations up front, communicated extensively, clearly cares about health and safety of the pets she cares for, and also took great care of my house. Highly recommend!

Valene did a great job checking in on my kitties while I was away. She sent many pictures and my shy cat even warmed up to her by the end!

This is the second time Valene has taken care of our kitties and this time she also looked after our bunnies. She went the extra mile to do some cleanup and gave us consistent updates while we were gone. Thank you! :)

Thanks for reading my profile. I absolutely love what I do and it makes me happy to provide tailored care for your pets! Schedule a 15 minute meet and greet with me so I can learn all about your pet(s)!

Information Valene T. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if the pet has any special needs, sensitivities, reactivities or anything else I should know about their personality so that I can make them feel as comfortable as possible. Please let me know their quirks so I can provide tailored care for them. For dogs: Do they get along well with other dogs we may come across during a walk? How do they do driving in a car?

A typical day

Ask about my adventure add-ons which includes outings with your pups. Examples: Early morning coffee at the dog friendly coffee shop: I get a coffee and they get a treat! Trails and parks: I will take your pup(s) to Seward Park or walk along Lake Washington. At Seward Park we can hike inside the forest trails, around the loop, and sit by the water and rest. It is not too crowded so we have a lot of space to relax and explore. If the dog(s) are socialized, I can take them to Genesee or Blue Pond dog park and let them run for a bit and let off energy.
