Highlights
Pet care experience
🐾 full time dog walker 🐾
I started working for a local dog walking company in Chicago in 2010 and immediately fell in love! Ever since then I've been dog walking & pet sitting as a side job and have made so many friends over the years. This has been my full time job for 9 years now! Whether you're needing a walk during the day while you're at work, multiple visits throughout the day while you're out of town, or your cat to be checked in on while you're away, I've got you covered! Each visit is tailored to you and your pets' needs. Just let me know what you need and I'm happy to help!

Safety, trust & environment
I don't offer in-home boarding since I have my own dog and cat. I can do multiple drop-ins/walks per day if you're out of town.
Ratings and reviews
Miah was so happy during her walk with Valerie. Valerie is very friendly and professional. I will definitely be using her again!
Our pup Max loves his midday walks and play time with Val and we love that she sends an update along with adorable photos with each visit. She takes extra care coming and going as we've got a curious kitty that likes to try to get outside. She gives him pets and attention during her visits as well, which he craves & loves. We appreciate all the care she provides our little fur family.
Val always does a fantastic job looking after my cat!
Valerie walked my dog, Trixie, while I was on vacation this past week, and I am beyond thrilled with the service she provided. I felt that she followed all of my instructions perfectly and kept me informed on Trixie's wellbeing on a with each walk she took her on. Trixie is older and very particular when dealing with new people; however, Valerie was able to make her very comfortable.With past walkers, I have returned home to her having lost weight due to not eating, but with Valerie, Trixie appeared to be her normal self upon my return. I highly recommend Valerie if you are looking for a perfect friend to your pet!
Valerie is so great with my dog Daisy! I can always count on her to send great photos and updates while she’s with her. I can always tell Daisy has been well cared for with Valerie
As a seasoned dog owner, Val is the best dog walker I’ve come in contact with. She communicates quickly and professionally, sending photos and updates of my pup every session. I recommend her to anyone looking for a consistent, dependable pet care taker. She’s just the best. Thank you Val!!

Schedule
My clients are all around Avondale. I have a very small service area since I have 50+ clients in the Avondale area and travel by bicycle. I'm typically available 7 days a week, around the clock.
