Boy, howdy, do I love animals!

Pet care experience

I grew up with Saint Bernards and got into pet sitting because I missed living with animals. I've watched both cats and dogs—including a cat with an inhaler, a dog with multiple types of food that needed to be measured by weight, and homes with four different animals. I love spending time with animals, and making sure they're taken care of and loved. I'm an avid walker, and can either walk the same path every day or walk somewhere new—whatever the dog or cat wants to do.

This is my first experience using Rover and I’m very glad to have worked with Vallerie. She followed my instructions beautifully, communicated well everyday, and gave me peace of mind while I was away from home. My kitties were also happy with her care. Thank you so so much for everything!!

Vallerie was great!! Daily pictures and updates on anything that happened with my cats while I was out of town. Made sure my bed sheets were clean and all the dishes that were used were also clean for my arrival back home. Will definitely book with them again!!

Vallerie and Brenda are kind, professional, reliable, and fun. They stayed with my baby boy in our home and did a perfect job of feeding, playing, grooming, and loving on him. When I arrived home everything was in order and my kitty was calm and comfortable. The girls sent check ins. Would highly recommend and would hire them again!

Safety, trust & environment

When in a client’s home, I always ensure to follow any instructions surrounding entry and security both for the home and the animal(s). Additionally, I always strive to leave the home as clean or cleaner than when I arrived, especially for multiple day stays.

Information Vallerie M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any specific needs or schedules that need to be adhered to. I always appreciate detailed instructions, as well as phone numbers or vet information in case of emergency.

A typical day

It all depends on the pet! I’ve watched elder dogs who just want to cuddle up all day as well as dogs who need two walks a day. I’ve watched cats who need a lot of play time as well as those who just want to be left alone. It’s all about keeping your animal happy and healthy.
