Calm + Reliable Dog Walker
Hi! I’m Valentina - a calm, reliable dog walker based in LIC. I walk with structure, patience, and positive energy, so every dog feels safe, relaxed, and understood. My hands-on experience comes from caring for my own dog, Sammy. I cook for him, manage his daily routine, and I’ve trained him in multiple tricks since he was a puppy ( he could honestly be an actor by now). Living with Sammy has taught me how to read dog behavior, respond calmly, and keep walks safe and enjoyable. I offer walks between 8 AM and 6 PM, perfect for busy schedules, long work days, or when you’re not feeling your best. Your dog will always get a calm, structured, happy walk, every time.

Ratings and reviews
Theo had a great time on his walks based on the pics!
Valentina is great! My dog looks forward to his daily walks and was a lifesaver finding Valentina to take him out while I’m at work. She sends pictures and is in contact daily so I can feel at ease while away from my dog and can see he is having a good time while out and about! Def. recommend!
Valentina was a great find on Rover. For two weeks, she took our fur diva for daily walks. I loved her daily photo updates and recaps. My dog was always super happy to see her. I know she will miss Valentina, which is exactly what one should want with a pet sitter. She gets my highest recommendation and I will not hesitate to call on her again in the future.
Valentina was incredible! SO fast to respond, took our pups on a lovely walk and sent so many sweet pics of them! Would highly recommend!!
Valentina was amazing! It was our first time using Rover and she made the whole thing so easy. She also sent a ton of photos and videos which was much appreciated. Our dog loves her, would definitely use her services again!
Valentina is amazing! I will definitely be using her for my dog again.

Schedule
Pet care is already part of my everyday routine. I walk my own dog, Sammy, multiple times a day, so adding client walks fits naturally into my schedule. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks, and I keep my calendar flexible for last-minute or same-day requests. Caring for dogs is something I do consistently, so your pet will always have dependable, structured attention.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and comfort always come first. When caring for pets, I follow their routine exactly as instructed and keep walks calm and controlled. I avoid crowded areas, and choose safe, quiet routes.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with me is active, structured, and full of positive attention. I focus on both physical exercise and mental stimulation. We go on engaging walks where dogs can safely explore, sniff, and enjoy their surroundings. I like to incorporate small training moments during walks such as practicing sit, stay, and polite leash behavior.
