Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs big or small, I love them all!
EXPERIENCE: Hi there, I can’t say enough about how much I love dogs! I’ve had at least one dog at any one time growing up. I have extensive experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I’ve dogsat for multiple families, both at my home and at the pet’s home. I was raised here in San Antonio and know pretty much every park in the city limits. I was living in Australia for almost 2yrs, and while living there I volunteered at the Dogs Refuge Home. It’s one of the best no-kill shelters in the world and I went through serious training to become a green-level (intermediate) dog walker. And most of these dogs weren’t well-trained, household pets, they were stray, unmanageable for some, human- or dog-aggressive dogs. Meeting new dogs is such a fun experience for me, and hopefully for the dog as well. I love forming a bond with them, plus my pup Winston loves other dogs and with your permission they can go on walks together! I can’t wait to meet your pup!

Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
ENVIRONMENT: I love going to parks and outdoor areas with the dogs I watch, but if your dog is more of a home-body we can Netflix & chill too. I can bring my dog Winston and/or Walter as well, if your dog is sociable and okay with larger dogs.
Ratings and reviews
Valerie has been a life saver . We just moved to town and were able to get in touch with her easily and have her help us let out our furr baby while we are at work. I would book her again.
Pictures don’t lie, my dog, Migo, looks so happy & excited every time he sees Valerie!
Migo’s a happy dog, thank you!
She is great, so loving and I appreciate it so much
Valerie was very dependable and took great care of our fury children. Highly recommend.
I have nothing but great things to say about Valerie! I felt extremely comfortable leaving my fur baby with her from the initial meet and greet, and while away, she made sure to make it feel like I was right there with them. She was very communicative, punctual, trustworthy, reliable, and went above and beyond to give my mini Aussie the attention and exercise she needed. I would highly recommend Valerie!

Schedule
AVAILABILITY: I work normal business hours (Mon-Fri, 8a-5p with a 1hour lunch). If your pup needs to be let out during the day, I can swing by on my lunch break. Just shoot me a message, I usually respond within 30mins! I’m available most weekends as well.
