Pup Loving Physical Therapist

Pet care experience

**only available after 4pm on weekdays** Active, punctual, professional looking to spend some quality time with your best friend (and fill the dog-void in my life)! I am flexible and reliable, and I reply promptly. I consider myself caring, warm, and energetic. I have over 22 years of dog and cat care experience, paid and volunteer, including work with special-needs dogs. I communicate well with both people and dogs. I would love to take your dog for a walk along Lake Michigan, go for a jog, and play fetch. I have ample experience with cats as well, and can play with them, change their litter, and provide them with fresh water and food. I will follow all your instructions and provide you with photos and updates. I'm a pediatric physical therapist by day, and whether it's running around with kids or pups, I love it!

Valerie was a life saver as she responded and agreed to my request within 12hours. Super flexible and a wonderful personality.I just moved to SE LakeView and will definitely seek her assistance to visit my lil cat :) She sent pictures during her visit. I'd appreciated that gesture.

Valerie was wonderful and we'd definitely like to use her again. Our dog really enjoyed his walk with her and he came back tired for bed. Yay!

Valarie is a wonderful caregiver! She follows any directions or extra requirements (such as pet medication administration) to the T. She also is great about letting my wife and I know how are fur babies are doing when we're on vacation and missing them. I would highly recommend Valarie to anyone with dog sitting needs!

Valerie has cat-sitted for me and my husband on several different occasions and has always been very responsible and reliable. She has lived with cats and dogs her whole life so she understands what they need and how to care for them. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone!
