Experienced Pet Care-Taker

Pet care experience

**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 10 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 7:00 a.m.-10:30 p.m. We can always extend boarding stays if need be. 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 outside if you would prefer. 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 great experience with Valentina. She asked great questions when we dropped our guys off, let us know they settled in and ate dinner, and sent us a cute pic! We already booked our next visit.

Oreo loved his week long stay at Valentina’s! We got lots of pictures! She was great at communicating and flexibility on pickup time. We will definitely use her again!
