Retired vet tech and dog trainer

Pet care experience

Lover of animals both rouges and sweeties, I was raised on a horse farm, s a life time of experiences and learning. I am known to have a knack with the more challenging animals. Being a retired veterinary technician, I am not only able to administer medications and injections, I will have a keen eye for health isssues needing attention. I will alter my life schedule to fit the animal I am sitting. Loving the fur babies very much, I can spoil them or be a strick Auntie Dy. I give as much freedom as each dog earns. I was a former member of The American Pet Dog Trainers Association, and studied under Ian Dunbar, Karen Pryor, Gary Wilkes, and others. My home is a quiet home, I no longer have fur babies of my own, so lots of relaxing and petting goes on with whoever is here! We do like to go for car rides and walks and sit by the rushing creeks and rivers. Once in a while we may even have training games! Also for home sitting situations I have large animal experience as well, especially horses. and with instruction I can slop the hogs and feed the cows and chickens! Being that I have no fenced yard, all will be walked on leash.

Diana spent 2 days with our senior dogs who require lots of care. She was very attentive and dogs adapted to her very well. We will definitely call on her again!

Diana was wonderful! She took excellent care of our home and two dogs - one is blind and one is anxious. Her care, communication and dog behavior/training knowledge allowed us to completely relax on vacation. Highly recommend!

Diana stayed in our home full time for 4 days and nights with our 12 year old whippet. She is a very conscientious, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter. She provided daily updates and pictures/videos about our dog. She even taught him a new trick! I highly recommend Diana without any reservations whatsoever.
