Puppy and dog whisperer

Pet care experience

Hi, I am Valerie! Below is a bit more information about myself and what I can do for your lovely pets! :) Australian, 31 - living with my husband, and our furbaby Ernie ( a corgi) - Beyond the 9 to 5 - I enjoy hosting travellers from all around the world via Airbnb and we also frequently dog sit/ dog walk friends' pets. - We have a frequent dog resident that loves to come on staycation with us , and she is a shiba inu called Juno :) - Based in Hammersmith, next to Ravenscourt Park. So easy for us to take dogs on long walks and lots of play. Our neighbourhood has many friendly dogs, always ready to play and mingle. - We are working from home full time now so we are ALWAYS at home! Services : 1. Dog sitting - You can bring your dog to my place. My place is medium sized, but dogs are allowed anywhere in the house as long as toilet trained. Rates will vary depending on time needed to dog sit. I only take small to medium sized dogs. My husband and I are working from home full time - so we typically take our corgi for walks 3 times a day. A morning walk, lunch time walk and evening walks. We live in a house without a backyard, so dogs running out is not an issue. Morning walks typically at 830 am before work starts. Afternoon walks during lunch time from 12-1pm and evening walks after work around 6pm typically :) Pets are free to roam everywhere except bedrooms. We have a playpen so we could always separate dogs that needs more space from our own dog if a separation is required.

Valerie, her partner and Ernie are a great companion for my dog Tina. She loves staying with them and sleeps on their sofa? they take her to cafes, parks etc so every day is full of fun and adventures.

Reese’s first time in daycare and she looked so happy! Received so many updates, and Valerie and her husband were so caring with her. Would definitely recommend?

Really happy and grateful to Valerie for taking such great care of Milo. This is the first time Milo has been with someone other than family members. Both he and I were a little nervous, but he seemed super happy when I picked him up. Valerie was great in providing regular updates and pictures during the day, which I really appreciated. Also, the communication was great and effortlessly. I would 100% recommend and will be booking with Valerie again in the future!

Our French Bulldog, Hector, had a few days with Valerie, and judging by the pics he thoroughly enjoyed himself. Valerie and her partner (plus Ernie) took excellent care of him. They're excellent sitters, and super-convenient for the Canary Wharf area.

Information Valerie G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements. If they have anxiety or have any behaviours that I can keep an eye for, that would be great!

A typical day

I love taking dogs on long walks and taking them to meet and play with other dogs in the morning and evenings. I also play fetch and tug with the dogs I look after everyday. During their meal time, I provide a snuffle mat for them to exercise their mind!
