Pet care experience

Ruff schedule ? Purrfect plan !

My whole life I have been surrounded by animals of all kind. I always navigated to them, growing a deep passion and love for all sizes, shapes, and types of animals. In my teenage years to now I have been a reliable pet sitter, and friendly companion while the pets owners are not able to be there. I currently live in a place where my landlord prefers me to not have a pet, so I try my best to stay surrounded by other’s pets. I truly enjoy the company of a furry friend and would love to help you have a smoother schedule and not have to worry about the time missed with them while you’re away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Since my landlord will not allow me to have pets, I can only care for your pets in the comfort of your own space. I find it easy to adapt to each pet’s needs and do whatever I need to to make sure they are comfortable, happy, and feel loved.

Valerie is absolutely amazing! It was the first time I left my dog while I left the country and I was immediately relieved after meeting Valerie. She’s professional, genuine, and incredibly responsive. I will for sure be booking Valerie again in the future. HIGHLY recommend!

Val was awesome! She took great care of our two dogs and our house while we were away for the weekend and kept us updated on how everything was going. I will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a sitter!

Valerie dogsat our miniature dachshund puppy while we were out of town. We were initially nervous to leave him since it was the first time, but she kept us updated every day. She sent us videos and pictures daily. She is very reliable and always on time. Our puppy really bonded with her and he had a great time.

Val was amazing with our cats!! It is clear she has a love for animals. Our cats loved her too. She sent pictures each time she visited and left a little summary of her time with them. Absolutely recommend having Val take care of your fur babies. Would definitely choose her again if we weren’t leaving the area!

Schedule

I am a yoga teacher by morning and waitress by night however my days are somewhat open and flexible with the current schedule that I have, I am typically at work for 6 hours. Unfortunately I would not be a great fit for smaller dogs that need to go out more often but if their bathroom schedule fits well with my work schedule, I’d love to be their companion while you are away and give them all the attention when I am there with them.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Valerie can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
As stated, I can be out of the house for up to 6 hours so if your animal needs care every few hours.. I might not be the best fit depending on the day however o may be able to adjust my schedule accordingly if I have enough notice!
