Ratings and reviews
Valerie was fabulous! Her place was off the beaten path of town and construction- super for dogs! She took great care of Gemma for me for 3-4 hours!
Valerie does an amazing job taking care of my dog when I have to go out of town. It’s obvious she really loves animals. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend Valerie!! Very friendly and she made us feel very comfortable leaving our dog with her! Would use her again without hesitation.
Valerie was outstanding! Was visiting Pagosa for the weekend and needed day care for my 7month old puppy while we soaked. Our plans changed a couple of times and Valerie was able to accommodate us. She was great with my pup and even was willing to introduce him to her kitty and they got a long!! Now I know he is good with cats. Chewby enjoyed his stay with Valerie and I had peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I highly recommend Valerie.
Valerie took very good care of Millie. She updated me with pictures and a video throughout Millie’s stay with her. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her in the future
Valerie was great. Thank you for comforting Handsome through the thunderstorm ❤️

Schedule
Since I am retired I have time and flexibility to care for your pet. If needed I can also administer medication. You don’t even have to worry!

Safety, trust & environment
I currently have one dog and one cat! We have a larger house, along with a fenced and shaded yard. Five acres to run if your pet is good with “Come” ! 😀
Pets
A typical day
We can go on walks, play ball here at home or at the dog park, go for rides in the car. We can also just chill out and watch the squirrels
