Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
This was my first experience with Rover and Diana was fabulous. My little one is a nervous Nellie and Diana (and her dog, Buddy) were the perfect fit. I was gone 2 and a half weeks and she took exceptional care of Exie. Diana was very good about all the little doggie details: walking schedule, food. She is very kind, calm and caring. Could not recommend her more highly.
Diana is such a great sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable with my girl Ziggy staying at her place after an incident with another dog rattled her. Diana provides a safe space and lots of love to her guests. Ziggy immediately felt calm at her place, and I received lots of pictures to help ease my anxiety about her being in a new place throughout. Can’t recommend her enough!
Hey there, fellow dog lovers! I cannot say enough good things about Diana. I’m just reaching out to say that you could not do better than to leave your loving pup with Diana and Buddy. She is super responsible, follows your instructions and always make sure that your pup feels right at home with her and Buddy. It’s a very safe ,calm and loving environment. I always leave knowing that my little pup Pepper is so happy to be there when I can’t be with her and that gives me a lot of peace of mind. Chris G
I met Diana and her dog Buddy at our local dog park. After getting to know Diana and Buddy, their interest and nurturing attitude about myself and my dog Belle, I was overjoyed to learn that Diana and Buddy would care for Belle when I was out of town. When dropping off Belle at Diana's home, Belle immediately felt comfortable and safe. When I returned from our trip and picked Belle up, she was happy and a tad bit sad to leave her friend Buddy. Every time we meet Diana and Buddy at the dog park, Belle is excited to see them both! I am grateful to have Diana and Buddy in Belle's life. Belle is looking forward to her next "sleep over" at Diana's.
Diana is the BEST! Her attention to detail and empathy towards my dog’s needs is always forefront. Diana treats, loves and speaks to my dog as she does her own. She is my go-to dog sitter and I always feel at ease when I leave him with her and Buddy. He comes home happy, relaxed and well-loved. I never worry when he is with her
Buddy’s Bungalow is my preferred place to leave my two dogs. Diana is the most amazing and loving and diligent person I know! I have a 15-year old Border Collie and a 4-year old Potcake who is fearful of new places and people and she will go to Diana without question and without question I know Diana will love and respect her. I have used her services many times and would not hesitant to do so again and again. Diana & Buddy are simply the BEST!!!
