Pet care experience

I'm your pet's favorite sitter!

Hi Fur-Mom's and Dad's! I'm available to pet sit for your dogs and cats - whether it's for your vacation, or you just need some one off pet sitting! Or maybe you need some extra help with walks and playtime for your pets? I work remotely from my home, so I am available to care for your fur babies from the comfort of my home as well. If you have a senior pet who needs more 1:1 care, in a smoke-free, pet-free, child-free home - I am the solution! Do you work long hours and just need a cool place for your pet to hang out until you get home? I can help there too! I have access to miles of pet friendly walking paths that me and your pooch can stroll around while you're at work, or on vacay. Cats are welcome too! Would you rather have your pet stay home while you're away? I can check in on or stay with them as you need too!

Valerie was great! From the moment we met her we knew Rocky would be in greats hands. She took Rocky on many walks and they played plenty of fetch. Valerie is a trustworthy and reliable Rover sitter, we are happy we found her.

Fantastic! Valerie did a great job with my two dogs. Even with one being so finicky at eating she made sure everyone had their fill. My home was well taken care of and as clean as i left it. I can’t wait to use her again! You won’t go wrong!

Valerie was great watching Jimmy and Katie. She sent photos and videos and kept in touch. I would definitely like to use her again if she would have them!

Valerie is wonderful and I'm so happy I found her! She was so patient with my dog, who is a bit nervous. Valerie was patient and sweet to my dog, and helped her to stay as calm as possible during my absence. I also received beautiful pictures of my dog while she was with Valerie.

Food/Toy Guarding: Do they get snappy if you touch their bowl or try to take a toy away? Leash Reactivity: How do they react when they see another dog, a squirrel, or a person on a bike during walks? Handling Sensitivity: Are there "no-go" zones? (e.g., they hate their paws being touched or their ears cleaned). Stranger Danger: Are they fearful of new people entering the home? 2. Behavioral Quirks Prey Drive: Will they bolt if they see a cat? Separation Anxiety: Do they howl, chew furniture, or try to escape when you leave the room? If they get off-leash, will they actually come back when called? Fear Triggers: Are they terrified of thunderstorms, vacuum cleaners, or loud trucks?
