I had my first dog at the age of 5. I have been a dog parent for most of my life. I have taken dog training classes and cared for most of my friends, neighbors and family dogs for years. I am well known in the Pelhambay dog park community. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks in nature, woods and beach. I have a fenced backyard where they can enjoy some outdoor time unleashed. The park is only 5 walking minutes away. I have plenty of dog toys, and a sweet beagle girl. She loves all animals and humans, including our little chinchilla. Our chinchilla is securely caged and I have fences to divide the rooms. Finally I have a extra room which I use as a little doggie living room for them to have privacy 😊 with me you have guaranteed premium care, genuine passion and love to give your pup a fun and sweet experience, including power walks, exercise, amazing location submerged in nature, basic training and endless amount of love. My dog is also a great playing buddy as a plus!
Reviews
Valentina and Tony were absolutely amazing at taking care of my dog Pepper! I was away for two weeks and am always nervous about being away from Pepper. We spend all of our time together so leaving her behind when I’m away is very anxiety inducing. Luckily, Valentina and Tony were extremely attentive sitters. We met once beforehand and they took a lot of initiative to ask questions about Peppers day to day and I immediately got good vibes from them. When I was away, they sent me daily updates with photos and videos of all the adventures they took Pepper on, along with their dog Daiya. It gave me so much peace of mind to get these thorough updates throughout my trip and put me at ease knowing Pepper was with such loving, attentive and active sitters. They also followed all of my instructions to the letter and did a fantastic job of looking after my apartment as well, which was in perfect condition when I returned. Pepper got along so well with Valentina, Tony and Daiya that I think she was a little sad to see them go when I returned! I will absolutely use their services again and will be maintaining a friendship as well, so our dogs can have more play dates. I highly recommend their services, especially if this is your first time using Rover. You can rest assured that your furry friend is in the best of hands with Valentina and Tony. 5 stars and 10/10!
Tom was a great cat sitter, and was super helpful and patient regarding our scardy cat Toasty. He sent lots if updates and photos and I felt like my guys were in good hands the whole time.
It’s a pleasure to know my Fendi is in good hands and that gives me total peace. It's home away from home! I’m thankful and grateful to have you!
Our guys had a wonderful 2 weeks with Val and Tony. Lots of love, good walks. We got pictures and updates every few days. I think they might have been sorry to see us come back!! Will definitely call Val first next time we take a trip.

Fenced sections of the house in case dogs need separation. Fenced area where the chinchilla cage is located. Extra room for dogs privacy and leisure 😉 double gated and fenced backyard. I have a harmless small female beagle. I accept untrained dogs but not dogs that are aggressive towards people or other animals. Make sure flea medication is applied if you plan to have your dog going on nature walks or run in the backyard.

Information Valentina R. would like to know about your pet
Feeding and potty habits, feeding and potty schedule, allergies, medical conditions, food restrictions, behavior around people and other dogs, such as aggression, fear, any destructive behaviors I should be aware of, such as chewing furniture, and other items, excessive barking. I will be asking these questions during our meet and greet as well.
A typical day
I love to take dogs on walks around the park, woods, there is also a small dog beach in the neighborhood. Finally I enjoy letting the dogs have fun in my fenced backyard and play with toys inside the house. I have a toy box with different dog toys, from chewing toys to stuff toys and balls.
