Pet care experience

Experienced Pet Care-Taker

**New guests: we are not accepting high energy breeds (shepherd, cattle dog mixes) and dogs over 30 pounds. We are only taking in small and toy breeds. **Regular guests please send an inquiry if you see I am booked/unavailable on my calendar for the dates you need - I will get right back to you to discuss accommodations. For over 15 years I have been taking care of many kinds of animals. I truly believe in kind discipline and loving care in order to receive respect and loyalty from man's best friend. I have trained and taken care of many kinds of dogs. I am a very active person and enjoy taking the dogs for runs, hikes, or just even playing in the backyard with them. I have experience with dogs of all ages- from newborn toy breeds to old aged senior boxers... one of which was my own and whom I took care of to an old age giving him all the love and comfort he needed. I am very dependable, responsible, and kind-hearted. I sincerely look forward to meeting your four legged friend! I have a flexible schedule working from home most of the time. Times for drop off and pick-up can be anytime between 7:30 a.m.-10:30 p.m. We can always extend boarding stays. I am comfortable caring for dogs with special medical needs: medications (pills/topical), insulin injections, etc. We have a fenced in yard but I can keep your pets on a leash when we are out there. When your dog is left alone he/she can either be crated or stay in one of our extra rooms - dogs from different families will be separated when left alone in our home.

We had a positive Rover experience. Valentina was incredibly sweet and accommodating and our dog was happy and well cared for. Our dog was walked and we received picture's daily. I would highly recommend Valentina.
