Safety, trust & environment

I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and individual needs, from feeding schedules and walks to medications and favorite activities. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience while keeping owners updated with messages and cute photos! I make sure to treat every client’s home with respect and care.

Information Valerie L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special needs I should know about regarding your pet, their safety and wellbeing is my top priority while they are in my care. I have experience watching dogs age 4 months through 15 years old and a variety of breeds with different temperaments and energy levels. I do have experience taking care of aggressive dogs, but it’s still important for me to meet an aggressive dog before caring for them to ensure we are a good match. I have experience watching cats of all different personalities from age 6 months - 15 years old. I have a dog hammock with a seatbelt leash that attaches to their collar in my car (sedan), in case the pet needs to be transported anywhere while they are in my care.

A typical day

I love to play with pets and give them as much exercise as is safe for them to have so they feel entertained, stimulated and in good company while you’re away. I make sure to follow instructions for their care meticulously because I understand the importance of consistency in a pet’s schedule. If your pet likes to be pet and cuddled, I am happy to give them affection, and if they prefer their independence, of course I respect that!

Reliable & Loving Pet Care

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish for over 25 years and have experience with pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I grew up with Siberian Huskies and have spent my life around animals, both as a pet owner and caregiver. I provide attentive, dependable care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs! My experience includes walks, feeding, administering oral medications, playtime, companionship, photo updates, and monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or well-being while you’re away. In addition to pet care, I have experience maintaining freshwater aquariums, including water quality monitoring and tank care, as well as basic indoor plant care. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away!

Valerie cared for our two larger dogs while we were on vacation. She is terrific and I would recommend her to anyone. She really cares about maintaining the pets routine and making them happy. She follows any instructions you provide, shows up on time and is highly communicative. Our dogs are high energy and need structure which she easily handled. She put our minds at ease with her professionalism and love of animals.
