About Valerie

Hello :) We’re a dog-loving family offering dedicated dog-only sitting services in a safe, caring, and fun home environment. Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives, and we truly understand how important it is to leave your dog somewhere they’ll feel happy, secure, and loved.

We have over 20 years of experience with dogs, having grown up with multiple breeds and spending many years training and caring for our own dogs, as well as those of friends and family. From energetic pups to calm adult dogs, we’re confident, patient, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs.

Originally from South Africa, we’ve proudly been Kiwis for the past 7 years. We’re a close-knit family with one wonderful teenage son who absolutely adores dogs. He loves spending his free time outdoors, taking photos, and being active—especially alongside our furry companion Charlie.

We share our home with Charlie, our friendly 2-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (around 10kg). Charlie is fully trained, has attended puppy preschool, and has a gentle, social nature. He loves having other dogs around and is great at making visiting dogs feel welcome.

We’re an outdoor-loving family who enjoy long walks on the beach, exploring new places, and keeping active—perfect for dogs who love exercise and fresh air.

Our fully fenced flat home offers plenty of safe space for dogs to run, play, and relax. Whether your dog enjoys adventures, playtime with a buddy, or quiet cuddles, we make sure they feel right at home while you’re away.

We’d love to care for your dog and treat them like part of our family 🐶🐾
