Pet care experience

Animal loving vet tech and farmer!

I have been a registered veterinary technician for 10 years, so I definitely have the experience needed to handle all sorts of critters. This also means if you have a special needs pet they will be in good hands. I have had dogs and cats my entire life, and recently became a stay at home mom on our 9 acre hobby farm where we have horses, goats, sheep, pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, and even a peacock!

She is very responsible. She had their food out on schedule. I will definitely ask for her again.

Schedule

I am able to do daily walks and play time, as well as just hang out to give attention. Spoiling the animals I'm watching is a no-brainier! I use positive reinforcement only.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Valerie can host up to 6 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behavior concerns that we need to work on while I am watching them. I am happy to work with all sorts of pets.
