Information Valeria R. would like to know about your pet

With dogs that have any special situations just please let me know what I should do and I will move mountains to get it done, I literally put any pets needs in front of my needs always, they are more important.

A typical day

I love to play with dogs and stimulate with treats and toys. I love to play with fetch with dogs and have them chase me around, I think I enjoy it more than they do.

Pet lover - 10+ years experience

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets my whole life, but I began to have a lot of pets in 2008, we started to have 5+ dogs and 5+ cats, bunnies, and chickens, so I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and I know what it takes to take care of pets, I genuinely love animals, I am originally from Costa Rica and have seen really bad situations with stray cats and dogs, I get physically ill if I feel I can’t help an animal in need and there have been many situations where we have saved animals and brought them back to health and foster puppies and kittens. I consider myself really passionate about animals and I even have experience with assisting in grooming and if anything is needed please let me know, I will always be willing to help.

this is my second time working with Valeria! She is extremely communicative and takes such good care of my dog. I always appreciate what she does and I feel very reassured leaving him in her care.

Valeria is the best! She cared for my two pups, at my apt for a long weekend, as if they were her own. Great communication and would use again!

Valeria was great with Link! She met up with us a week pripr to get to know him and see the space he lives in. She was highly communicative and very kind with links care! I felt reassured and like he was in good hands while J was away and I came home to him happy and healthy!

When I needed someone to watch my apartment and my dog on short notice, Val was a perfect sitter! She saved my weekend out of town and kept my boy happy in his own home. I returned home to find it cleaner than I left it, and barely a trace of Val. Wonderful first experience with Rover, and I'd gladly book Val again.
