Loving and affectionate dog home

Pet care experience

My name is Val and I've been a pet lover since I was a little girl. My first pet was a chihuahua named Rambo and I used to rescue stray cats and kittens as a kid. My next pet was a Doxie who was raised alongside my children. I currently have a puppy named Koopa who is a 2 year old Viszla. He is floppy and playful and so affectionate. I enjoy babysitting other dogs because Koopa really loves having doggie company to play with and run around with in the yard and have fun. Our home is filled with love and we will care for your dog as if they were our own. We provide a safe atmosphere and will send you pictures and updates of your dog while they're with us.

Val did a great job of taking care of our fur baby. Kept us updated with daily pictures and/or videos. Highly recommended!

I would highly recommend Valerie! My Sky had the best care & so much fun with her pup! She even went out of her way to drop him off at home for me. Super happy dog Mom !

Our fur baby, Milo, loves to stay at Valerie’s! Valerie sends us updates throughout the day of Milo playing with her sweet dog, Koopa. Milo always returns home happy and eager to go back. We highly recommend Valerie and are very pleased with the way she cares for our baby.

Val took care of my 1 year old Dachshund Biscuit while we were away on vacation. She did a great job sending me pictures and caring for my dog. He looked very happy, well fed and clean under her supervision. I highly recommend her services!

Information Valerie D. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog get along well with other dogs? Does your dog bite humans or other dogs? Is there a particular time your dog likes to eat meals? When do they like to nap? What games does your dog like to play?

A typical day

A typical day starts with a nice hearty meal and then a stroll around the neighborhood. Once we get back home, we have a couple of hours of nice indoor time to relax and nap. Once awake from the nap, it's fun outdoor play time in our fenced in back yard. After a couple of hours of playtime we come back inside for a few treats and rest. After resting we have dinner, then a nice long walk and then back inside for some fun indoor playtime before bed.
