Safety, trust & environment

In your home, I stick to your pet’s usual routine and use their own supplies. I respect your space, keeping it clean and following any house rules. I also keep you updated with regular check-ins.

Information Valerie M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know their daily routine, including when they eat and go for walks. Know their diet, any allergies, and if they need medication. Their behavior, likes, and dislikes. I’ll need the vet’s contact details for emergencies. Also, any commands they respond to and their exercise and play needs.

A typical day

start by giving them their breakfast and then head out for a walk or let them roam around outside. After that, let them get their zoomies out! Throughout the day, check in to top up their bowls with whatever is needed. When evening comes, it’s time for dinner and snuggles, wrapping up the day with cozy cuddles before bedtime :)

Pet care experience

Stationed here. I occasionally pet sit from puppies to seniors for friends and family and would love to extend care to the community. I have one senior doxie, one doxie that recently cross the rainbow bridge. I also have a goldendoodle boy. I will send as many pictures as needed because that’s what helps me when I’m away.

Valerie was amazing! Reliable and very friendly. We were so grateful to have her help on a busy week. Our dog Biscuit can be tricky, but he loved her immediately and she was able to get him to go for long walk. We will definitely be requesting her again!! Highly recommend.

Valerie is absolutely wonderful. I felt completely safe and confident leaving Roxy in her care. She communicates clearly, responds promptly, and truly goes above and beyond for the animals she looks after. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
