About: I have had my own dogs for the last 15 year. I’ve learned to care for them and nurture them. I’ve even had the privilege of helping my dog bring her puppies to the world. I’ve had dogs of the size of a cockapoo up to German Shepards. If you are looking for someone to treat your furry friend as if they were their own, you’ve come to the right place. I’m a stay at home mom who only has to drop off and pick up my kids from school. I am flexible with the hours. All I ask is that for boarding you book at least one week in advance. I have a fenced backyard with a pool and 2 fury friends to keep your dog company. I can crate your dog if necessary. Your furry friend can even go for a swim if it likes.

“Birdie just finished her first walk with Valerie and she was well exercised - for a high energy dog like mine, that’s exactly what I need! Thank you so much, Valerie. Will def be booking again.”

About: I have over 10 years of pet care. From pets to walks to giving meds, I have loads experience with pets. I love treating them with respect and giving them that extra attention they deserve! I am usually off by 3pm and enjoy evening walks. I think it would be really great to get back into taking walks. I am very excited about this opportunity I like to treat animals with respect.

About: I have been around cats and dogs for most of my life. One of the most rewarding experiences was taking care of a cat diagnosed with congestive heart failure. I worked closely with his owner to ensure he lived his best life for about a year after his diagnosis. It was incredibly fulfilling to see how well he thrived under our care. The veterinarians were pleasantly surprised with our efforts in monitoring his eating habits and ensuring he wasn’t breathing too hard. It truly reinforced my belief in the importance of attentive and compassionate pet care. As a proud dog owner myself, I understand the unique bond that pets share with their humans. One of my favorite activities is visiting the dog park, where I can enjoy the energy and joy that dogs bring. I work 8-5, but I’m available on weekends or even weekday evenings. I usually go to my clients homes after work and care for their pet. It depends on what kind of care the pet needs. I can cater my services to best fit the type of care that the pet needs. Whether that’s a sick pet, a healthy pet. I make sure they have food and water when they’re supposed to. I make sure to take them on walks as needed (dogs, although I can also walk a cat if that’s what’s asked of me hahaha never done that before but not against the idea 😂) honestly, anything the pet needs I’m willing to cater my services to the pets needs.
