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.

We loved having Valeria care for our cats while we were out of town for the week! She was punctual, kind, and so sweet with the kitties. We loved that she sent frequent updates and pictures to us. Grateful to have found such a wonderful pet sitter!

Valeria was amazing taking care of our cat Milo when we were away. Extremely sweet and caring, you can tell that she truly loves every animal she encounters as her own. Her communication was constant and thorough. We will definitely be hiring her again.

Usually in my home I try to provide comfort for my pets, usually I try to have beds in their favorites places and also make sure to have toys, for cats I made a homemade scratcher out of rope and an old lamp post. I will adapt to anything and do anything that is required for the comfort of your pets.

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.
