Fun, Reliable Dog Sitter
Pet care experience
I'm a friendly, female, energetic, and experienced dog sitter. I have grown up with many different types of animals and currently own 1 dogs, chickens, and horses (I have a rescue). I'm happy to watch your dog at my place along with my fur baby Karma. I live on a 5 acre ranch and dogs can be allowed on or off leash (depending on behavior) or can hang out inside. I do not do cage sitting! I'm home 95% of the time so there's no worry your pup will be by themselves. About this sitter: I'm a big animal lover and currently own a friendly, playful female dog, Karma, who is 4 years old and 55lbs. I am a non-smoker. Flea and tick prevention highly recommended! I used to do dog rescue but now do horse rescue and pet sitting. Please note I prefer not to sit dogs under 2 years of age or those who are 'chewers', or un-fixed pets. On occasion I may make an exception for a well behaved dog. Why I love dog sitting I have grown up with dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, guinea pigs, and rabbits. My love for animals started at a young age and I now run a horse rescue. Meet my pets My fur baby is a 5 year old female, Pit/Whippet mix, she is medium to large sized, she gets along with any kind of dogs and love to run and play.

Valerie sent pictures and communicated with us. The girls had an enjoyable stay!
Amazing! So communicative, and Bella had an amazing time. She will be back in the future!
Excellent as always!
Valerie took great care of our little dog. He is older and Valerie provided photo updates on his stay and he came back to us in great shape! Thanks Valerie!

Home
Information Valerie F. would like to know about your pet
I do not sit un-neutured or intact males, dogs that like to chew things besides toys, or dogs under 2 years of age. Otherwise, dogs must be friendly towards other dogs and people, and know general manners (i.e. not peeing inside). I have experience with all types of dogs and all ages, have no problem giving medications of any kind.
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks Walks can be accommodated, but usually aren't necessary unless a dog doesn't do well off leash. Your dog's sleeping arrangement We ask owners to bring their pet's bed for them to sleep on, and dogs sleep in either the kitchen or living room or in the bedroom with me and Karma. Time I'll spend with your dog I spend the majority of the day with the dogs I sit along with my dog. I work from home so I'm at the ranch all day.
