Availability
I work as a vet tech on a set, three-day schedule. This predictability is a huge benefit, as it allows me to block out my other four days specifically for my pet-sitting clients. My routine is carefully planned around your pet's needs.

Pet Care by a Vet Tech
Pet care experience
With 10 years of experience as a veterinary technician, I bring a level of expertise to pet care that's hard to find. My entire life has been devoted to the well-being of animals—from dogs and cats to horses, goats, chickens, and reptiles. This isn't just a side gig for me; it's a continuation of my professional career. When it comes to dogs, I understand their unique needs, from energetic puppies to seniors who need gentle care. I can handle any personality with confidence, providing the right amount of physical and mental stimulation. For cats, my care is truly specialized. As a Cat Friendly Certified professional, I'm uniquely skilled in creating a stress-free environment for your feline companion, respecting their space and understanding their unique communication. My skills in administering medications, managing special diets, and recognizing potential health issues mean you can have total peace of mind. You're not just hiring a pet sitter; you're getting a dedicated professional who understands how to keep your beloved family member safe, happy, and healthy.

Reviews
Valerie was amazing! Great communication. Excellent with my dogs. Lots of photo updates. My girl is special needs and Valerie made sure she understood what Sadie needed prior to her visit. 10/10!
Finding a pet sitter who is comfortable and experienced with administering insulin injections was a huge concern for us. Valerie put our minds at ease from the moment we met. She was calm, confident, and took the time to learn our cat Leo's specific routine and needs. The detailed updates we received, including times of his insulin shots and how he was doing, were so reassuring. We trusted Valerie completely with Leo's health and well-being, and they exceeded all of our expectations.
Reliable and trustworthy. Excellent with our anxious cat. Administered daily eye drops flawlessly. Received regular updates and photos. Our pet was happy and healthy when we got home!
I can't recommend Valerie enough! We have a senior dog, Max, who requires a lot of extra care, including daily medication for his arthritis. Valerie was not only professional and reliable but also incredibly compassionate. They were meticulous about following the medication schedule and even sent us photo updates of Max taking his pill. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable hands. He was happy and well-cared for when we returned, and we'll definitely be using Valerie's services again.
