Highlights
Pet care experience
I will love your baby like they were my family
I have taken care and owned dogs for 25 years.I have been a previous cat owner.My fur babies are my family they will get plenty of hugs and kisses if thats what they like.I understand through cat and dog sitting that not all fur babies like to be handled.I have a huge park by my home and i love walking.I have a garden so they will be free to roam and play.If it is ok with the owner i can take them on short car journeys.Overnight pets can snuggle in bed with myself. Also being a mother i have the caring and natural nuturing instincts to love and protect your loved one. Before i became a sitter I was a frequent Rover customer and i found wonderful caretakers for my previous loved ones. We can arrange more than one meet and greet to help you choose the right fit.

Valerie was exceptional! My dog came home happier than ever and I will always be using her if she’s ever available! ( my dog is quite a handful!)Amanda x
Valerie looked after Diego for a week whilst we were on holiday. She sent me photos and videos throughout and Diego seemed to settle down so quickly - eating and sleeping well. Valerie is highly accommodating and very kind - I thoroughly recommend her. Thank you Valerie X
Valerie is so kind and loving. I feel completely at ease knowing she’s taking care of Diego - it’s evident from how she interacts with him how much she cares. She is also a lovely person. I highly recommend her.
Valerie was incredibly responsive and took great care of our dog. She went the extra mile to get to know our dog before the walk too. Would definitely recommend!
Valerie was a so warm and welcoming. Zion was made to feel at home . We got a lot of pictures and videos of him settling with Valerie. He sometimes can get anxious with new sitters but Valerie made time for a meet and greet ,& he felt safe when he was boarding slept and ate well too.
Valerie was so kind and loving with Diego. She was wonderful showing me her beautiful home and ensuring Diego and I both felt comfortable. Thank you Valerie!
