Pet care experience
I have had a cat or dog in the home my entire life and have lived with pets of all sizes and personalities. I can administer oral medications, tend to "needier" fur pals, send photo updates, live very close to pet-friendly walking trails, and live in an area with LOTS of grass and trees to sniff. I primarily work from home so I can easily hang with your pet in your home or mine. My spouse also works from home so one of us is almost always home. I love to work outside (weather permitting) so pets that enjoy the sunshine are a plus! My dog really enjoys the snow so we're used to getting in some pup friendly exercise in the winter months as well. My spouse and I live with our 12pound, cat-like dog who would be happy to play with your pup or just nap nearby. I am very flexible, so if you have any questions or requests, just ask!
Reviews
Valerie was very professional and flexible! We are all super grateful for her help. Highly recommend!
Valerie was a wonderful and reliable petsitter. Easy to communicate with and caring, making sure our cats got some attention while we were away. She sent great pictures every visit and was responsive when we had questions. I would highly recommend hiring her if you need a pet sitter!
Valerie did an amazing job dropping in to feed and play with my two cats. She kept me informed about her visits and sent me daily photos. The cats were completely relaxed when I got home from my trip which gave great peace of mind. I would highly recommend her!
Valerie took amazing care of my 14 year old dog and cat. My kitty had a flare up of pancreatitis a few days before I left and was not eating and on 6 medications. I was nervous to leave her, but Valerie was flexible and happy to take on the additional care. She administered all her meds, tried different foods to keep her eating, responded to my questions right away and kept me updated with messages and photos of both animals. I am so grateful that it allowed me to be away on a trip I couldn't reschedule and know my fur babies were well taken care of. I would be happy to have Valerie pet set for us again!

Safety, trust & environment
Let me know if your dog prefers to be crated when alone. Your dog will always be in view of a human when it stays at our house (unless we're not home). Your dog is basically part of the family when they are with us. We have an unfenced yard so your dog will always be leashed when outside.

Please let me know how your dog reacts to other dogs. We live near several other dogs who are typically on leash, but can get quite excited about new dogs in the area.
A typical day
I primarily work from home and often work outside. Your dog will join us as part of the family and going about life with us. We are surrounded by sidewalks and very near several parks and paths for safe walking with your pup!

Availability
I primarily work from home so I can care for your pet on their schedule. Our dog recently passed, so I am accustomed to the schedule they usually need.
