Incorporating pet care into an active lifestyle enriches life in numerous ways. Daily jogs with the pups became a source of motivation & consistency in my exercise routine. Weekend adventures, like exploring a new state park, paddle boarding, or attending an outdoor event, provide opportunities for shared experiences & deeper bonding. Beyond the physical, the companionship & unconditional trust from a pet can reduce stress & enhance overall well-being, making every day more fulfilling! 🫶🏽

Pet care experience

Welcome! My name is Valerie. I work daily, full-time, in the world of wagging tails & wet noses! We all deserve a life filled with joy, adventure, & unwavering love. I absolutely LOVE what I do! I've spent countless hours/days/years learning how to bond with, run alongside, & correct the behavior of many special guys. Through this, I’ve also learned how to foster a deep connection, understand individual needs, & celebrate each dog’s unique spirit. My dream is to successfully own my own dog center, focusing on behavioral rehabilitation. For now, I'm thrilled to offer top-notch care. Whether it's brisk walks, energetic runs, fun swims, or exciting adventure chases, I'm here for it. I also provide weight loss management, leash training, & short-term care when you're away. Rain or Snow, Summer Sun or Two Below, you can count on me. God Bless. 🕊️🐾

Fiona’s first outing with Valerie went really well. Fiona got good exercise and Valerie worked with her on manners and over reactivity. Valerie gave us good feed back and videos. We will continue with Valeria and look forward to Fiona’s progress.

Valerie was great with our two kitties! Our boy cat is typical not trusting of new people and can be hard to work with, and she was very patient with him! Our girl cat became best friends with Valerie!! She was very thorough with her duties, had great communication and I know our kitties were well taken care of!
