About: Over 20 years of taking care of pets. I love cats, dogs, birds, etc. I’ve had some clients for decades. I am a pet photographer by trade but have always babysat pets on the side for fun. I am a freelance photographer, so I set my own schedule. The more notice I have for a booking the more I can reserve as much time as possible for your pet. I can easily integrate your pets schedule into mine when you hire me. I live in a condo with no back yard, but taming your pets out for many potty breaks or walks is not problem. There is also a great area with hiking trails about 10 minutes away.

About: Why Choose Me? 🐾 Caring for dogs is something I’ve been doing my entire life. My family has never been without a dog, and now that I’m in my own home with my husband and our 2-year-old dog, I get to continue doing what I love—giving dogs a safe, comfortable, and loving place to stay. Over the years, my family and I have cared for the pets of friends and relatives more times than I can count, from overnight stays to month-long visits. Every dog who comes into our home is treated like family from the moment we meet them. We’re happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and, of course, lots of snuggles on the couch. 🐶❤️ Meet Ellie! 🐾 Our 2-year-old pup, Ellie, is a crazy, fun-loving girl with lots of excitable energy! She absolutely loves having other dogs around and is always ready to make a new friend. Whether it’s running around and playing, chasing each other in the yard, or simply hanging out together, Ellie loves the company of other pups. Because Ellie is so playful, she can be a great companion for dogs who enjoy having a furry friend around. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration and make sure everyone gets the attention and space they need. A Home Away From Home 🏡 Our home is a place where dogs can truly feel at home. If your dog is used to sleeping in the bed, they’re welcome to do that here too! If you prefer that your dog stays off the furniture at home, we’ll absolutely do our best to maintain those boundaries and routines. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so my goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your dog. Your pet will receive the same patience, attention, affection, and care that I would want for my own. 🐾 I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pup and give them a loving home away from home while you’re away! Pet care is something I make a priority in my daily routine! I love making sure every pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and opportunities to feel comfortable and at home. I plan my schedule around the needs of the dogs in my care so they can enjoy a safe, loving environment while staying active and happy. Our fully fenced backyard provides a safe, spacious environment where dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air alongside our friendly, playful dog, Ellie. We offer plenty of supervision, attention, and opportunities for fun, along with a comfortable crate option for dogs who prefer a quiet, cozy space to relax and recharge.

“Just picked up our senior rescue Daisy from her first overnight stay (2 nights) away from us in the 11 months since we adopted her. We were nervous at first about leaving her in an unfamiliar setting but everything went very well. Donna is AWESOME! She sent pics regularly, texted updates and asked questions when there was something she was unsure of. Great communication, attention to detail and Donna went out of her way to be sure Daisy was comfortable, had plenty of walks, etc. Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is that I truly understand dogs because I’m a dog parent myself. I currently have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Mini Dachshund, so I’m experienced with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pets like family, and that’s exactly how I care for every dog in my home. I’m patient, attentive, and focused on making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm environment, I make sure they get personalized care and attention. I also understand the importance of routines, updates, and communication, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands.

Valerie was exceptional. This was our first time leaving Finn in someone else's house. She took him in with such ease and we totally trusted her. He love running in the back yard. Would highly recommend Valerie.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
