Reliable and Fun Animal Lover

Pet care experience

My name Valerie, I have 7 years of pet care experience, and would treat your babies as if they were my own. I enjoy animals of all ages, and sizes big or small! I have 1 dog at home, Milo, is almost 8 years old. I know how important it is to find the right person to care for your pets! I have reliable transportition for park visits, greenbelt adventures, and the very rare emergencys. I am very reliable for the animals that are on strict schedules, and will make a point to keep you updated on your pets which ever way you prefer (call, text, pictures, or emails) I would love to meet you and your fur babies for a meet and greet!

Valerie has sitted for my 4 month old puppy, Maverick, three times already and she's been great! Always punctual and sends constant updates and pictures. Maverick seems happy every time he sees her. She's been very flexible with her schedule and has helped even with last minute requests! Will be using her in the future.

Valerie is amazing! She showed such genuinely love and care for Willow and Luna. She helped ease Luna into her new feeding routine, and helped with house maintenance (taking trash bins out and bringing packages in). She left the house in fabulous condition, and I could tell my animals had been well looked after. Absolutely my first choice for future trips. Thank you Valerie!

Valerie has done an outstanding job taking care of Tank my 1 year old German Shepard. I have had other friends recently take care of Tank while I was out of town. Valerie is the only one who did not have any difficulties. I feel absolutely secure while leaving Tank in her care. He was fed on time, she gave him the attention that he needed and maintenance. She is a mother of two dogs her self. She has days when she will take our dogs on doggy dates to Zilker park. Valerie is the first recommendation out of my experience with pet sitters.

Valerie was amazing with my Charlie! My job had me out of town for weeks at a time and I missed him but I knew he was in good hands. She would feed, walk, play and even gave him his baths. He really liked Valerie. I moved to Dallas but when I come to Austin we try to visit Valerie. Pet lover will be lucky to have her!

I am able to adjust my pet care routine in a way that will make both you and your pet comfortable. It is important to me that your pet is not stressed and their routine is not changed from their normal home life.

Information Valerie D. would like to know about your pet

Some dogs need special attention and I'm more then happy to provide just that. Any specific feeding/walking schedules that you may have will be followed through. I have no breed restrictions at all, I don't believe there are any 'aggressive breeds'.

A typical day

Why not treat your dog to all the great places austin has to offer? Zilker park adventures are avaliable as well as any designated places you would prefer me to take your pups.
