With a customer-centric approach, I aim to provide a seamless petcare experience, prompt client support (by being very flexible/responsive in a timely manner)- Being a former pet owner myself, I take pride in serving the pet community by ensuring every cat-dog client can provide their beloved besties with services that offer exceptional value!

Reviews
Ollie enjoyed his time with Valerie again! She sent lots of pictures and was in constant communication. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Ollie!
Ollie had such a great time with Valerie! She is very thorough and took amazing care of him. I really appreciated all of the updates, pictures and videos. Thank you so much!
Valerie is the best, You won’t find a better sitter, she always goes the extra mile, has an incredible level of extra care and keeps me updated on how my dog is doing throughout the day. The peace of mind of my dog with her is priceless, will definitely book again (and again) Thanks Val!
Valerie is fantastic!! Cannot recommend her more to take care of your furry friend. I needed last minute care for my sweet kitty over the holidays after a series of cancelled flights and she was willing to hop right in that day. She did a great job keeping me updated every step of the way on when she was arriving, how she was eating, playing, etc. and made me feel so comfortable that my kitty was being well taken care of!

**~It’s extremely helpful to know your pet’s quirks ~good and bad~ so the more you tell me about them, the better prepared I can be! For example: a) Your pup is a rescue. b) You are not privé to your pet's history prior to the adoption. c) Your pet requires feeding in a separate room (please note: I give all my guests sufficient privacy during feeding times)~ That being said, cases vary from pup to pup and some pooches may require a little more “paw-holding” than others. d) Your pet experienced a traumatic event. e) Your pet was abused by its previous owners (adults and kids), at a kennel or during a board, or within any other applicable scenario. f) Your pet is specifically shy towards men/women/children. g) Your pet has a thing with loud noises/scooters/skateboarders/cyclists/moped-ists h) Your pet is working with a trainer to: 1) Make or break a habit 2) Learn a new trick i) Your pet has a sensitive stomach and is on a restricted diet (no treats outside of what the owner provides) j) Your pet is a dumpster diver and lives to pick up street rubbish k) Your pet needs to be on a short leash at all times l) Your pet is stubborn and will not walk if you pull too much or walk too fast m) Your pet hates the rain/snow n) Your pet only goes on patches of greenery o) Your pet gets cold easily and needs to always wear certain attire when out on walks p) Your pup only poops once a day. -Any pre-existing health conditions should be discussed during our meet and greet ~ For example: if your pet is not feeling well or is just getting over something, please let me know prior to booking-
A typical day
**I love to hit the nearby parks ~either along the East River or Central Park~ Long walks are my forte~ By contrast, low energy and "low to the ground" guests are welcome to take their time :P I also provide all clients with ample content (mostly video) throughout the day and/or stay.**
