Pet care experience

Your pets will be like my family!

I have been caring for animals since I was young, starting with my childhood dog and now my own little kitty. I have continued to care for cats and dogs over the years for family, friends, and Rover clients, winning over even the shyest of pets. I will treat your pet like family! I have experience with senior cats and dogs, as well as reactive dogs. I am comfortable administering oral medication.

Valerie checked-in on my cat while I was out of town. She did a fantastic job communicating, following my instructions, and taking care of my baby!

Valerie was awesome and kept me updated with cute pictures and thorough updates on how my cat was doing. Very trustworthy and diligent, I’ll book again when I need cat care!

Valerie and her roommates took my fur kids for the weekend (and on short notice too) and when I got back everybody was happy and mellow... I think they wanted to stay for all the attention! :) Would recommend!

Valerie has always been an dog person. She has always been drawn to every type of dog. She has helped train family dogs for her aunts and uncles. She is very patient and loving with all animals. She is extremely responsible and would treat your pet like her own. I highly recommend her.

Valerie can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
I would like to know about any aggression/behavioral issues before sitting. I would also appreciate info about any issues with separation anxiety/ fears the dog may have and how best to comfort them. That way your pet can feel as comfortable as possible while you are away. If you pet has any medical issues which require medication, please provide info about that to ensure I can care for them as best as possible.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
