Highlights
Pet care experience
Flexible, enthusiastic animal lover
Hi everyone! I’m Valerie and I’m a Cornell PhD student currently living in Ithaca! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life - I grew up with 2 cats and a few other animals including a bunny, hamster, and hermit crabs. I adore all animals and I’ve pet sat for family and friends many times in the past. I have two cats at home, Layla and Olive. They are the lights of my life and as an avid Rover user myself, I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pets care in the hands of someone else. I can guarantee honest and prompt communication and lots of pictures so you can feel at ease. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Safety, trust & environment
I am a caring and attentive pet sitter. I’m very comfortable administering medications and dealing with older pets if necessary- I hope to make your pets feel comfortable while you are away!
Ratings and reviews
Valerie was so great, especially with a last minute booking and some last minute changes. She took great care of our cat and dog and they looked so happy in the pictures she sent. Would absolutely hire her again in a heartbeat!
Valerie did an amazing job at watching our two little kitties while we were gone. I felt very confident in her care of them and the cats took to her immediately when they’re usually scared around strangers. She gave me updates after each visit with pictures and was very easy to contact with quick responses and an accommodating nature. I will be using Valerie again and would recommend using her services!
Valerie was great walking my dog.
Valerie was great!! I felt very comfortable leaving Norman in her care. She was very responsive and gave detailed reports. Thank you!!!
Valerie was fantastic taking care of my cat Riku! She was very communicative, sent lots of pics, and it felt easy to trust her. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.
Valerie is great at taking care of my cats. She is very responsible and always checks in with me when she watches them. She is very trustworthy and I wouldn’t let anyone else watch my cats except for her.
