Pet care experience

Walk or Run! Let’s have some fun 🤩

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. 🕊️🐾

Valerie was exceptional! She was available on short notice and came over the same day for a meet-n-greet. She arrived for both drop-ins on time and even stayed later than scheduled because Luella was a little upset about being left alone. She really cares about the animals in her care and follows all instructions and she is very responsive. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!

Valerie has formed a kind and loving bond with both of our dogs. We know she truly cares for and about them, and they for her. She is truly a special person.

Valerie was absolutely wonderful as a drop-in sitter for our two cats! Not only did she conscientiously complete all instructions with care, she noticed details and proactively took initiative. Communication was outstanding with many updates, photos, and cute cat videos. She was insightful and sensitive to our cats' unique personalities, in tune with their needs and respecting their cat moods. She worked above and beyond, generous with her visit time, even bringing a fun cat toy that my kitties loved. We are selective about our pet care, and I am confident that our kitties were in the best hands!

Schedule

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! 🫶🏽
