About: Growing up with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs, I have a wide array of pet care experience for animal friends large and small. Frequent dogwalker and pet-sitter with extensive knowledge of care practices. I am a remote worker and student in my day-to-day life, so I can frequently care for pets in my off-time in between classes and while working at home. I will be open in my communication about any issues or special needs that pets will need and trust that clients will communicate any special needs to me.

“Caroline was the consummate professional sitter for our recent vacation. I highly recommend her services. Caroline took great care of our pups in our home while we were gone, sending numerous pictures each day to let us know how they were doing. We could tell by their posture and demeanor they were happy and not stressed … which was our concern with leaving them with someone “new.” Caroline love the doggos and most importantly, they loved her!

She was extremely understanding and flexible when there was an unexpected leak issue right before her visit that required repair during her stay. Highly recommend Vallie for your rover needs!”

If you’re looking for a kind, reliable, and genuinely wonderful pet sitter, look no further. A true gem!”

Super responsive & was flexible to my last minute needs. Thanks for caring for my boy. Not only did she take care of my dog she looked after my home.
Renée looked after our two cats, a big house and a big courtyard. Everything went very smoothly! She is great about staying in touch which is so important. We are already booked for the next trip!
Bailey was the perfect fit for our hound, Lukas! From the moment we connected, she was thoughtful, responsive, and clearly experienced. Lukas is 14 years old and requires a little extra care and attention—Bailey was incredibly mindful of his needs as a senior pup. She sent regular updates and photos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We came home to a happy dog and a spotless house—she truly treated our home with care and respect. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us and would absolutely trust her with Lukas again in the future!
Ethan took such wonderful care of our 2 pups and our place while we were away. We got regular updates and he did great with our senior dog and her health issues. Will definitely be calling him again!
McCall is a wonderful Pet Sitter! She took the finest care of my pet. They were happy smiling the photos that she sent me with very nice reports of how they were. I only regret is she’s going off to vet school now. She’s going to be a great veterinarian, I can tell. Many thanks to her for the ease that I had while I was gone from my home. Everything was great when I got home.
Alex took great care of our cat while we were on vacation. She was so nice and even gave him new medication that we just got for him. Even though that wasn't in the "job description" before. She sent me a lot of pictures and updates. I am already planning on booking here again soon.
Chloe was great as always. I know our pup is in good hands when she stays with him. She sends updates throughout the weekend. We are lucky that we found Chloe! Would definitely recommend!
Elizabeth was fantastic as usual! Our dogs enjoyed their time with her, and I got so many wonderful pictures of their adventures together. Elizabeth is a great communicator and followed all of our instructions to a T. Our house looked great when we got home as well!
Ashley is a fabulous sitter! She was punctual and enthusiastic and my Pearl got along with her instantly. She made me feel confident that Pearl was in great hands. Highly recommend!
Sonia took great care of my senior pup and my home over the holidays, and on short notice! Definitely recommend Sonia!
