I'm currently working afternoon shifts at a restaurant, typically anywhere from 12pm - 8pm. While my schedule varies, I can spend plenty of quality time with them and come and go straight from work to make sure they get as much attention as possible. Please reach out to let me know your situation - I'd love to work something out!

Safety, trust & environment

My flexible schedule means house-sitting is totally up my alley! I'm happy to spend as much one-on-one time as needed, with lots of outdoor playtime/walks and an attentive presence inside to make sure they have everything they need. Anything you are / are not comfortable with I am happy to accommodate.

Information Valerie F. would like to know about your pet

No detail is too small. Tell me as much about your pet as you would like. Any triggers or things to avoid (i.e, scared of storms), or things they really like!

A typical day

If your dog loves walks, so do I! I'm happy to take daily walks and work it into whatever my day looks like. I am happy to play indoors or outdoors, whatever your space allows. I love playing with cats and have fun figuring out what engages them. Every kitty is different!

Pet care experience

I've always had a cat. I've helped care for kitties through every life stage, and would take family and friends dog-walking or sitting gigs whenever I could. Building a rapport with an animal and earning their trust is something I take great pride in!

Valerie was a great sitter while we were out of town, she took great care of our dog and cat and we were able to relax knowing they were in good hands. She took our dog for nice unrushed walks and spent time at the house with them so that they weren't lonely. She was very communicative and made sure we knew how everyone was doing the whole time. We look forward to hiring her again next time we need to go out of town.

We loved having Valerie stay with our pets while we were on vacation. She was so good with our cat and it was so nice knowing they were in good hands while we were away. I will definitely book with her again for our next vacation!

Valerie has cared for my dogs and my cat many times! She is reliable, friendly, and thoughtful in the way she interacts with people and animals alike. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.
