Pet care Port Charlotte,Punta Gorda

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs and cats and my life, even having to put them to "sleep" for my friends who couldn't handle it. I've had mostly cats all my life, then the past 15 years I've had 3 dogs: a Pitt bull, Irish setter/lab mix and a Pit/American bull dog mix so I've dealt mostly with large dogs, My dog now, Mac Doogie is 85 lbs of muscle and I walk him down the neighborhood and all the neighbors love him. He has to go and say hello to all of them, even kids. I do this so people know that its not the dog but the person that brought them up. I just love the dickens out of both cats and dogs and miss having a cat but the deposit for each pet is $150 each which is why I can't have other pets in my home. So if you have a cat, that would make me very happy too, to care for . I do understand diseases, for instance had a diabetic cat so I had to give meds, dog with heart worms so he needed meds and I got it into him. Not roughly but I try to get playful by hiding in a treat. You won't be disappointed with me, can be rest assured of the experience I have to care for them, plus all the love I can give and play to make sure they don't get bored.

Took great care of our fur babies ?

I've had the pleasure of having Diana take care of my 1 year old Cavapoo on 2 separate occasions. Both were on weekends since my wife and I were visiting family as well as friends. The first weekend we agreed we would have our Rosey stay with Diana. The next weekend, she stayed at our home. With our dog being so young and somewhat excitable, I was amazed at how well Diana did with her. I say this because on the second sitting at my home, she appeared to not want Diana to leave when we returned. From my experience, I highly recommend Diana. She certainly got the job done and has my utmost confidence and trust.

Diana is great about checking on my cats when I go out of town, giving meds, and cleaning their boxes. They are always happy to see Diana when she comes over. I would recommend her as a caregiver for anyone who considers their pets as part of the family. She is a true lover of animals.

I've known Diana about four years now, for the past two years she has been a wonderful caregiver to my dogs Daisy and Liberty. My husband and I work ten hours everyday and Daisy who is our geriatric baby needs to take arthritis medications and have her diapers changed during the day. Diana is so great with Daisy. She is loving and cares for my pets as if they were her own. Liberty had a hip replacement four years ago so her exercise needs to be limited but done on a regular basis. Diana takes Liberty for short walks and never overexerts her. My dogs love Diana and are so happy to have her in their lives, so am I. I totally recommend Diana for a pet caregiver.

Information Diana D. would like to know about your pet

If they have any health problems, how do they react to new people, if they need to be held a certain way, how they play and their favorite toys. What to keep them away from, including foods since they will beg and dome allow it, dome don't.

A typical day

I would walk them around the neighborhood, sometimes a slight jog to get their heart beating a bit faster for exercise. I would play with their favorite toys and I also use a laser light which dogs love to play and try to catch as much as cats. It's funny to see my big dog get all excited then end up panting after trying to catch the light- I do not point it near their eyes, just on the floor. But most of all I love to pet, hold and cuddle them since dogs are sentient beings, full of unconditional love and want to share it with those that need it.
