Highlights
Pet care experience
Fun, caring, attentive and loving.
I chronicle each day with a text message or email with photos of your pet. Walks each day at least twice a day. I care for each pet as if it is my own. I lost my shih Tzu 9/2017 who I had for over 10 years after my mother died. I've had 3 retrievers and 3 cats at the same time. My home is your pet's home. I adhere to a client's needs and desires for their pets. I am available 7 days a week for full time and part time sitting and care. My schedule is flexible. I am available 7 days a week. I live in the Forest Hills area of Augusta in a house with a fenced-in backyard and screened in porch. I take your pet on walks along the Augusta Canal, downtown on the river and also on campus at the Summerville Campus at Augusta University. If your pet sleeps in the bed or on furniture, then this is their home away from home, their very own staycation with lots of love and attention.

Ratings and reviews
Valerie was amazing! She cared for my Lucy and Remy as if they were her own and even went the extra mile to try to help with some pool issues that arose at my house while I was away. Her care and dedication was so appreciated and I will be sure to book again with her when needed! I highly recommend Valerie if your pet needs love and attention as if you weren’t away!
Valerie is awesome and my pets love her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter at her house or yours.
Super nice and made sure my pups were happy.
My dog milo usually tries to dart out the door whenever I leave him at a sitter due to his separation anxiety. Not, Valerie! Somehow she must have cast a magic spell to calm milos anxiety. Whatever she does works! And milo absolutely loves her. Like others have said she goes above and beyond to which I absolutely concur 💯
Valerie was a great sitter. Nina enjoyed her time with her. She always provided daily updates and we were so pleased to know that Nina was in good hands. We will definitely book Valerie again for Nina's care. Thank you Valerie for such an excellent care.
My boys love Valerie!! She’s very reliable and takes the best pictures! ❤️

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in backyard where they can run or hang out. If a pet is allowed on furniture and sleeps in bed, then they can do that in my home. I adhere to all care instructions an owner provides.
A typical day
We can play fetch inside the house and in the yard. I take them for walks in the neighborhood, as well as along the Augusta Canal, downtown Riverwalk and the Augusta University Summerville Campus. I have access to a private swimming pool, so if your pet likes to swim, that activity is also available.
