Vet Trained Walker and Runner!
Pet care experience
I am an experienced pet sitter and walker with a veterinary background as well as a degree in Pre-Veterinary Medicine. I have been caring for all types of animals for over 10 years! I bring a wealth of skills including puppy care, senior care, experience with medications/special needs pets, grooming and bathing, and light training. For those dogs with extra energy, I am an avid runner and will run with your dogs! I am here to create a safe, loving an enjoyable experience for your pets, and you as well!
Reviews
Excellent and professional
Diana was absolutely wonderful with my girls. She took my dog for very long walks and made sure everyone was fed with fresh water. Responsible and responsive. Will definitely hire again.
She is the best !!
Diana was responsive and communicative for the first walk, felt very comfortable having her walk Jelly. Also was very accommodating with all of the instructions we had, highly recommend!
About Diana D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for your pet in your home, I aim to maintain their routine and environment as closely as possible. Familiarity breeds comfort, and I want to minimize any stress. I'll make sure your pet's feeding, exercise, and playtime routines remain consistent. If they enjoy particular activities, whether it's a specific walking route or play style, I'll happily keep that routine. For pets that require medication or have specific medical needs, I have a veterinary background and am very comfortable providing medical care and giving medications.
Information Diana D. would like to know about your pet
I feel its critical to know a dogs "quirks" beforehand. Are there areas they don't enjoy being pet? Noises or places that make them nervous? Are they good around other animals and people? These are just a few of the important things I need to know to ensure a safe and happy experience for your dog and myself!
A typical day
I love to give the dogs I care for an exciting and stimulating time to release some energy. My favorite activities are walks and runs, as well as training and games! It gives your dog a great energy release, both mentally and physically. Additionally, when able, I love to take the dogs I care for to beaches and parks to give them a chance to explore new places.
