Loving Dog Sitter Who Treats Your P
I’ve been caring for dogs for years, starting with helping my neighbor by looking after her pup for over a year while she was on deployment. Since 2020, I’ve also provided daily care for two family dogs, handling everything from walks and playtime to feeding and routines. On top of that, I now have a mini Australian Shepherd named Teddy, who I trained myself. Living with Teddy has given me even more hands-on experience with puppy training, structure, and keeping an active dog mentally and physically stimulated. I treat every dog as if they were my own—paying attention to their unique personality, needs, and routines. My experience spans from long-term care to raising and training my own dog, so I understand the patience and consistency pups need at every stage of life. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs with different temperaments, and I always focus on giving pets not just supervision, but genuine companionship, exercise, and love.

Ratings and reviews
I appreciate Valeria's flexibility and responsiveness and Carter has a great time away from home.
Valeria was a godsend! My holidays plans changed and I needed a pet-sitter last minute. She came through and was so good to my pups! She was very patient with their energetic behavior and updated me with notes and pictures during every visit. Highly recommend!
Valeria was so great - she responded quickly to a last minute holiday request. Carter had a great time with Teddy and is now fast asleep!
Valeria was AWESOME!! She showed genuine interest in both of our dogs, and was able to meet the individual needs of both our dogs. Valeria consistenly communicated and sent pics. She is truly a dog lover ❤️
Calendar and availability
Schedule
Since being laid off earlier this year, I’ve dedicated my time to studying and caring for my own dog, Teddy, full-time. Because of this, my schedule is very flexible—I’m home most of the day and can easily adjust to fit in walks, playtime, feedings, or overnight care. Caring for Teddy has already made pet care a natural part of my daily routine, so adding another furry friend to the mix fits right in.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. At home, we have a large fenced backyard that gives dogs plenty of safe space to play and exercise. My own dog, Teddy, is crate trained, and I also have an extra crate available if your pup needs one for comfort or routine. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, structured, and loving environment so your dog feels secure and cared for at all times.

A typical day
I love teaching pets. Normal activities would be going on walks, playing fetch, licking mats, puzzles, hide and seek, teaching sit, down, stay, spin, safe (between legs), paw, roll over, leave it.
