SK9 Professional Dog Trainer

Pet care experience

I offer one complimentary training per day (value of $80) and work on the skills of your choice. I have 3+ years of experience as a dog trainer and had dogs my whole life. Here, on Rover, I offer a variety of services, boarding included. While I am boarding your dog I am happy to assist you with your training needs. Depending on the duration of stay, I work on basic commands of your choice and obedience training. With my years of experience, I understand dogs' needs and know how to handle them effectively. Whether it's training, care, or exercise, I'm here to provide the best for your furry friend.

Diana took absolutely wonderful care of Mabel. While I was away Diana sent me photos and updates each day. I really appreciate that she also did a session of training everyday too. Mabel returned to me a happy healthy puppy. It was great.

Diana took excellent care of our Chips while we went away for the weekend ! Chips is a rambunctious guy and Diana handled him with patience and care and he was happy and had a little learning on manners while away as well as plenty of play time. We received photos and updates and happy to have Diana look after in the future as we felt complete trust and knew he was well loved and looked after.

Diana was a life saver for us when we needed a month long stay for our two standard poodles. She was incredibly skillful and affectionate in caring for these two family members of ours, and gave us the flexibility we needed when we needed to extend their time with her. On top of everything, she’s an expert dog handler. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate to ask her to take care of Finnegan and Olive again.
