About Valerie

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi, my experience is vast. I grew up on a farm where we had horses, cows, chickens and goats and always our wonderful dogs and cats. I went on to owning and operating my own horse barn. I had 24 horses which included my own and boarders. I taught lessons and trained. After my divorce I went out on my own going to peoples houses to give lessons and training. Horses and animals have always played a significant role in my life. I have always given my animals the best care and love. I am meticulous and hard working paying close attention to details. I must add that I also worked for a small and large animal vet for 2 years and I am comfortable administering medication. I am also comfortable with birds . I have a parakeet that has been my constant companion for 10 years and my dog who is a senior now. If you are looking for someone who will treat your animals like their own and do the work needed to insure their happiness and well-being please reach out
