About: Hi, I’m Valerie — lifelong animal lover, proud pet mom, and your go-to sitter for stress-free, tail-wagging care! I’ve been caring for dogs of every size, breed, and personality since I was 10 years old. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and families have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s a playful puppy, an energetic walker, or a gentle senior needing extra attention, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and right at home. Animals bring me so much joy — and I always go above and beyond to make sure your furry family member receives the same love and attention they get from you. 🐶❤️ I also have extensive experience caring for pets with special needs. I’ve helped dogs recover comfortably post-surgery, maintained routines for a 14-year-old diabetic cat, and provided patient, gentle care for anxious or senior animals. When I worked as a Wag! walker eight years ago, I was quickly requested as a regular walker by repeat clients — a reflection of my dependability, calm energy, and genuine love for animals of all kinds. I currently run my own business, which gives me vast flexibility and availability to devote to your pets’ needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, a last-minute drop-in, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around your schedule to ensure your furry friend is comfortable, cared for, and loved. I’m an avid hiker and live right next to Frick Park’s 9-Mile Trail, where I love taking dogs for long walks, fresh air, and a healthy dose of adventure (with your approval, of course!). For pups who prefer a quieter pace, I provide gentle strolls and cozy downtime at home. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly — I can easily crate your pup if needed and always follow care instructions closely. Comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I make sure every pet feels relaxed, happy, and right at home — whether they’re here for a walk, a weekend, or a longer stay. Your pets deserve someone who sees them the way you do — as family. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry companion and give them the care, attention, and affection they deserve. Let’s set up a meet and greet — I can’t wait to welcome them into my world of tail wags, fresh air, and happy hearts. 🐾❤️ I run my own business, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding throughout the week — including weekends and most evenings. Whether you need consistent care, last-minute help, or an extended stay, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule to make sure your pet always feels cared for and loved. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment for every pet in my care. My home has plenty of space for your dog to relax or stretch their legs before and after walks. I live right next to Frick Park’s 9-Mile Trail, which is perfect for safe, scenic walks and outdoor adventures (always with your approval and comfort level in mind). I follow every care instruction closely — from feeding and medications to exercise routines — and I’m experienced in caring for pets with special needs, including post-surgery care and senior or diabetic animals. I prioritize safety and comfort above all else, ensuring every pet in my care feels secure, happy, and right at home.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life from big hounds to little terriers. I love taking care of them like family and that’s my approach to pet sitting. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies so I can provide your pet with the best care. I work from home as a freelancer so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m active and love going for walks and runs in Frick park so dogs will come with me depending on their physical capabilities! I think dogs should get regular outside time and on top of that I have a lovely yard. I have a very kind senior dachshund who is mostly blind/ deaf and oblivious to other dogs being around so she’s an easy companion. I have a yard far back from the road and will keep dogs leashed in the yard. I also have baby gates at all stairs to keep dogs who can’t do stairs (like mine) from falling.
About: I've been taking care of my own families, and friends pets for my whole life! I've cared for cats and dogs, young and old. I've owned and cared for small animal pets from mice to ferrets and chinchillas! I would love to watch your pet for you, whether it just needs a walk through a park or a weekend sitter, pick me to care and love your pet whenever you need! I work full time but partially remote so I am flexible! I can do drop-on visits, boarding, and house sitting. We can talk about a care schedule that works best for you and your fur baby. I will follow whatever routine your pet is already used to. I don't like to assume your pet has a certain schedule because each one is different! I will ask many care and routine questions prior to sitting your pet, and will provide you with frequent updates about how their care is going.
