Valerie was able to watch our dog on very short notice, and did an excellent job with her.

Valerie has been keeping our fur babies for almost 8 years! She's absolutely GREAT!

Valerie was quick to respond to messages and answered questions I had. We did a meet and greet in the driveway before our dogs stay, but weren’t invited in then or at drop off/pick up. She reached out asking if our dog was good with others, since another family had an emergency or she would keep the dogs separate. Our dog and the other one got along great and had fun playing! She does run a daycare so keeps the dogs separate during the day, which isn’t a huge deal but was hoping our guy would get little more attention during the day. Asked for daily walks as our dog has a moderate level of energy but unsure if that occurred. We got a few pictures throughout the week, maybe one every other day, had to check in mid week to see how our dog was doing. Overall a good stay, wish there was a bit more communication.

Valerie was the perfect sitter for Neo. After meeting her, we knew this was the place for him. She sent pictures daily and reassured us that he was in good care. Neo was in good spirits when he came back home instead of being lethargic and moping around as in times past from other sitters! We hit the jackpot with Valerie and would definitely recommend her. Our hope is that she is able to be Neo’s go to sitter in the future.

We feel Mazie had a great time staying with Valerie being able to hang out and swim.

I had a very bad experience with this sitter. We had a meet and greet the day prior to her sitting for my 1yr old dog. Indya is a very active puppy as when she met with the sitter, so she was aware. The next day she decided Indya was too much for her to handle, and was concerned about Indya leaping over the gate and getting to the children in the daycare center. Indya loves everyone and had I known she wasn't going to provide one on one care I would never have booked her. The sitter texted me the entire morning while I was at work for someone to retrieve her because she couldn't handle Indya, my puppy while caring for the children in her daycare. Not sure why you would watch children and dogs in the same environment, sounds like an accent waiting to happen. Rover needs to follow up/investigate this account.
