“Elise was absolutely wonderful with our son! We are looking forward to having her back! ”
My background is in nursing. This included care of the elderly within a hospital and nursing home environment. I was also a volunteer dining room server at a local senior center. As an animal caregiver it has been my passion since the passing of one of my pets. Shelter volunteering was a way to give back to the community and gain valued experiences with animals. Working as a volunteer at a shelter clinic inspired my enthusiasm for learning different aspects of pre and post op care. My duties were to record vital signs, administer subcutaneous fluids, and medications, in addition to monitoring animals until conscious. Presently, I foster kittens and cats for a local shelter, preparing them for adoption. Many are medically / socially challenged.
“Hello, I have known Valerie for many years. We have become friends over time. During the time I have known Valerie, she has been involved in caring for foster animals, volunteering for the Humane Society and also working as a pet sitter for various clients. She is extremely reliable, conscientious, and caring. I believe she would be wonderful for both people and animals and I highly recommend her services.”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
