Hi! I'm Val, your fellow pet lover!

Pet care experience

I have a lot of experience walking, boarding, and sitting pets. I have walked dogs my whole life, personally and professionally. I can keep up with a energetic puppy, as well as keep it cool for the old wise ones! When it comes to taking care of pets in my home, I treat them as my own. I love dogs and cats and would do my best to make sure they are happy and healthy, in their home or mine. I have done volunteer work at a shelter and there I learned how to properly approach animals and successful techniques for training them. I also know appropriate time lengths for dogs based on their body language and how to use all walking leases (harness, choke chain, gentle lead, etc.). I take pride in my abilities to keep up with a dog by making them feel happy and loved, I can be the perfect pick-me-upper that they need! Above all, I can care for pets all shapes and sizes, so I am sure that I can provide the best experience for all breeds, genders, sizes, personalities, etc.

Information Valerie P. would like to know about your pet

I do not preference dog breeds. I am welcome to all breeds and sizes. Before sitting a dog I would like to know if a dog is potty trained, when, how much, and where they eat, where they prefer to sleep, how often they pee/poop, what they are allowed to do inside and outside the home, what triggers them, and if they would need to be put in a crate.

A typical day

I have toys at my house that all dog guests can choose from to play with. I also have treats that I can gift to a dog that is being really good! There is a dog-friendly park less than half a mile from my house that is accessible to walk to. I know from experience that dogs love it there and aside from that there is an actual dog park a mile from my house. The dog park is sectioned for large and small dogs so that they feel safe and in the right place. Overall, I enjoy being active with dogs in my home and there would not be many dull moments for them to experience.
