Pet care experience
I’ve been taking care of dogs for what feels like my whole life. My mom actually ran a dog boarding service out of our home starting when I was a very young child. There were times where we would have up to 9 or 10 dogs at the house at a time. I was always helping her with feeding, walking, and even some training. And of course I was taking every opportunity to play and get kisses. I’ve dealt with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and manners. Whether they’re hyper or more content to sleep all day, I’ve seen it all. I have two dogs of my own whom I love to spoil and would love to spoil your babies too!
Reviews
Valarie was an amazing sitter for our week long trip! We had no worries that she would be able to handle our little rascals while we were away. We looked at a ton of sitters since we had some very specific requirements and requests for whomever watched our dogs while we were away. We are so glad we found Valarie, who accepted our wacky request and worked with us along the whole way. Also shout out to Ryan, who helped out, the two of them were super communicative and went above and beyond!
Valerie was amazing, she came 15 minutes earlier than requested and then she was an AMAZING help with the wedding ceremony. Valerie also sat outside in the hot sun with the two dogs, all while taking the dogs out and giving them water. She grabbed the dogs from the ring bearer and flower girl when needed and then fed and watched the dogs throughout the night in the bridal suite. ALSO she helped me get the dogs dressed for the big day, holding them while I got them dressed. There is no one I could trust more than Valerie and she was so considerate and such a team player. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE book her! She is such an amazing sitter.
Valerie was great! Flexible, good communicator, and a happy dog!
Both my dog and cat absolutely love Valerie! She treats them like they're her own, and takes amazing care of them. I trust her completely and know my pets are in the best care with her, whether it's for a quick walk or for overnight stays. Could not recommend her enough!

I have a fenced yard and two very friendly dogs. I crate trained both of my dogs and can crate your dog as needed. I’m happy to adopt any routine that your pup currently follows at home!
Information Valerie W. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or quirks, or any special commands that are sort of out of the box, or anything they’re trained to do that may be unusual
A typical day
I love to throw the ball for dogs, I love playing tug of war. Sometimes I just like to lay on the floor and give pets and cuddles. Whatever the dog likes to do or is used to doing!

Availability
I work in an office but only half the day, so I’m home around lunch and for the rest of the afternoon. I’d be able to do walks, potty breaks, and could feasibly house sit as long as your pets can go from early morning to lunch between potty breaks. Or my boyfriend, who is also on rover, could likely help out with morning potty breaks.
