Here to give your pet the best time

Pet care experience

Hello, I'm Valerie! I am a devoted pet enthusiast with 7 years of hands-on experience at home and local pet rescues. During my time there, I took on a variety of responsibilities including feeding, walking, bating, playing, and even training pets occasionally. Whether it's ensuring their daily needs are met or handling more specialized care, I've got it covered. With a background of vet intern, I am also comfortable with administering medications. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand the importance of creating a safe and loving environment. I am thrilled and look forward to brining my skills to your pets!

Valerie is the most caring animal person I know. I have seen firsthand how she handles animals and have trusted her with my own dog (scrappy) many times (he loves her!). She is definitely a person you can trust.

Valerie has been walking my dogs for a few years now and she has been such a delight. She is incredibly responsible and helpful. My two dogs can be such a hassle but Valerie is patient and cares for them as if they were her own. The most reliable dog walker/dog sitter I know. It’s been a pleasure having her care for my dogs.

Valerie did such an amazing job taking care of my Golden Retriever Tobey, we went away for a couple days for a little vacation, and when we came back he was as happy as a puppy can be. Would definitely recommend for such a great service!

A typical day

I'd love to take your pet on fun adventure through the Davis Arboretum, especially if it's nearby! I know some secluded areas where your dog can play freely, perfect for those who may prefer a quieter environment. Of course, I'll always respect any specific walking areas or distance preferences you have for your pet. Ensuring their comfort and happiness is my top priority!

Although I am a full-time college student, I am not currently working. My class schedule allows me to have a lot of time during the day to dedicate to school work and caring for others' pets. I also am free on the weekends!
