Caring for pets, peace of mind

Hey there! Thank you for visiting my profile. While I don’t have official education with animals, I have a strong love for all of them. I have always had to take care cats and dogs from childhood to now. I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and reliable for your fur babies.

WOW! Valerie is amazing! 10 stars! We booked last minute, woke up late on travel day. What a surprise to come home to clean litter boxes, new cat toys, and the trash we forgot to take out taken out! We’re beyond impressed and grateful for such above and beyond service.

She was extremely detail oriented and followed all rules or requests. She was very punctual and communicative. I thoroughly enjoyed the service and I believe my puppy did as well. I would highly recommend booking and look forward to our next service.

Valerie is very kind and caring. She loves animals and taking care of them. She has been my pet sitter for my Ruby when I go out of town. She walks Ruby, brushes her, plays with her and takes great care of her like I do. It's hard to leave your pet with someone, but with Valerie there are no worries and your pet is in great hands.

Valerie is a great pet sitter. She treats every animal as a member of her family. From notifying me of what my cat was doing, to feeding, even taking her to the vet if an issue arose, Valerie definitely has what it takes to be an excellent pet sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard and a doggy door so they can go in and out as they please. If your pet has the possibility of trying to dig and escape; the doggy door will be closed. I have a 3 year old female Pitt bull terrier mix named Gracie who loves to play! Your furbaby will be exhausted from a day of all play. I do have a Persian cat named Elsa but she can be separated if your pup isn’t cat friendly. I also have a 7 year old child that loves animals just as much as I do.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day would include playing fetch in the backyard, my dog will be so ecstatic to have a friend, going on a few walks around the neighborhood, and then some cuddling.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Valerie can host up to 3 pets per night
One of my previous fur babies had diabetes so I am very familiar with administering injections. I understand how all animals are different and I will take the time to learn their personality.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
