I’m currently working virtually as an administrative assistant so I’m able to do my work from your home and fit my schedule to the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I don’t currently own a pet of my own so I can focus on my work, which is a huge reason I wanted to join this site so I can get my fix of pet love until I am ready for my next pup and/or kitty! For house sits, guaranteed extra cuddle time as I'll be working from home. 💗

Safety, trust & environment

I am comfortable caring for pets in your home - I’ve gone into the homes of many pet owners and always treat their space with utmost respect and care, and treat the pets as my own. From my own experience of having dogs and cats, I know how they are just as much a part of the family as the humans and treat them as such! I also recognize the trust it requires for pet owners to invite pet sitters into their home and I am so appreciative of the opportunities to connect with many different families and animals.

Information Diana F. would like to know about your pet

I typically like to do a video call, in-person meeting or both before starting to work with your pet so I can learn all there is to know about any specific details of care, possible medications, or any special needs they may require. I am comfortable working with dog-aggressive dogs - I have plenty experience with this - so if this is something your dog is experiencing I just ask that I am informed ahead of time so I can be prepared. Thanks!

A typical day

I love to keep your pets engaged and feeling loved! For dogs, expect lots of walks, play and training when appropriate to keep them mentally engaged. For cats, expect lots of snuggles, play and brushing when appropriate.

Pet care experience

Guaranteed to care for your pets like they're my own - I absolutely adore all animals! I’ve cared for dogs & cats of many breeds/sizes since I was 10 years old and have 2 years experience assisting a dog trainer in Baltimore. I have experience and feel more than comfortable with puppies, large dogs, administering medications to animals, and strong dogs. When I lived In Baltimore, I owned two pit bulls and used to walk them together around the city comfortably. I have been doing house sits/pet sits for years now and absolutely LOVE animals. Really connect well with all the fur babies ☺️🐶🐱

Diana did an amazing job house sitting and watching our dog over the holidays. We came back to a clean home and a very happy and well cared for dog. Would absolutely hire Diana again.

Diana was amazing! She sent photo updates and let me know how my pup was doing throughout the stay. Dare I say, he may have had more fun than we did on our vacation 🐾 10/10 recommended!

Can’t say enough about Diana! This was my first time using a Rover sitter and have only left my kitties once before so I was a bit nervous. Diana went above and beyond to make sure Pork Chop and Ginnie were well cared for, she played with them, and even worked from my house to keep them company (Pork Chop loves people, and I was worried how he would do without us.) I would hire Diana again in a heartbeat!

Diana is a wonderful pet and house sitter. She watched my dogs/house for 2 weeks while I was out of country. During that time she sent several pictures of the dogs, and texted about them regularly. She has a friend in my town, and asked permission to have the friend over, although I wouldn't have known if she hadn't, but Diana is a person of honesty, integrity and respect, which extended to the way she care for my little dogs and my home. Her communication skills are excellent, and she radiates warmth and compassion for animals. From our first discussion about the sit to our final debriefing the day after I got home I was completely satisfied. I HIGHLY recommend Diana to any homeowner.
