I am a recurrent foster dog mom for a local rescue so I have lots of experience doing temp care. I have 2 dogs of my own so any in house boarding dogs must be dog friendly. I am happy to provide care in your home as well.

Information Diana L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your dog's temperament ahead of time. I can work with any dog but knowing if they pull on leash, are person or dog reactive, are noise shy, etc. will really help us have a fun and successful walk. Are they an escape artist? Does your dog like to play, or do they prefer cuddles? Do they prefer their tummy rubbed or do they prefer not to be touched directly? Do they need any medication or special tlc? You know your dog best so any information you can provide about their preferences and personality would be appreciated :)

A typical day

I would love to care for your family. I am active and love to walk your pup along the route of your choice, or I'll let the pup direct me where to go. We can play games such as fetch or tug or just chase around the yard. We can practice leash training, reactivity training, and then some basic commands such as sit, own, paw, watch (look at me), or anything else you would like me to work on. Just let me know what your pup is into or what you would like us to work on and I can tailor my stay to make sure everyone gets the most out of the visit.

Caring Paws Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hello, I'm Diana. I'm a huge animal lover and have been all of my life. I've had dogs for 25 years, cats for 12. I have almost 20 years experience caring for and moderately training all sizes and types of shelter dogs, so I'm experienced with all kinds of dog temperaments and can handle any size or breed. I know how hard it is leaving your pets in someone else's hands, but I will love your animals as if they were my own. I'm happy to send pics and full visit descriptions after every visit and can work on leash and basic training with your beloved pooch. Not to mention all the pets and cuddles they desire.

I cannot recommend Diana enough! She took such incredible care of our pup, Moose, while we were away. We received regular updates & adorable photos! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly dedicated, Diana is everything you’d hope for in a sitter. We’re beyond grateful and will 100% be booking again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
