Pet care experience

I’ve been an animal lover since the day I was born. I grew up with cats, small dogs, large dogs, fish, rabbits, and even raccoons. I am now married with 2 boys (10 and 16). We have 2 chihuahua’s, 3 cats, and turtles. Our pets have been around big dogs, small dogs, and other cats. Our cats are fixed, but one of the dogs are not. This is the reason I am not accepting non-spayed female dogs at the moment. We moved here from out of state and have decided to start caring for fur babies in our home again now that we are settled in and have time and space.

Valerie and Kevin provided care to our shizhu, Domino, for the day. Lots of little dogs for him to play with and quiet spots for him to be quiet when he needed. He came home happy and so did we. It was good to have a day out with peace of mind that he would be well cared for. We'll check Valerie's availability and happily leave our furbaby with her again.

Valerie & Kevin did an excellent job watching King. They were very attentive to his needs and provided constant communication/ pictures while watching him. I highly recommend anyone who wants their loved one watch with care that you go to them. I will definitely book with them in the near future.

I have known Valerie for several years on a personal and professional level. On a professional level I can say she is a very punctual person. I have been to Valerie's house multiple times it's always clean and animal friendly. She has always loved and adored her pets like they are her children.

Valerie truly loves animals. I had beautiful silver labs and they loved when she would pet set them. She has a big heart for animals!

We have a new fenced in yard so they will have plenty of room to run and play. We do not have any issues with the fence, however, we choose to stay outside with them, rather than leave them alone. We will do the same with your dogs. I can separate your dogs from our dogs if needed. We have a two story home, so that would not be a problem. If you prefer to have your dog or cat crated, I do have 2 crates available that will fit a small to medium size dog. I also know how precious our animals are and most of us sleep with our pets. Yours are welcome to sleep in my bed. I’ll just kick my husband out lol. If you have any other questions, or would like references, please do not hesitate to ask.

A typical day

We have a large backyard for your fur babies to run and play. All dogs are different as far as activity level, so it really depends on your dog. Some like to play fetch, others prefer to just run off their energy. We can discuss your dogs preferences in order to meet his/her needs.
