Pet care experience
♥2 sitters in 1 w/ no pets or kids!
Hi! We’re Diana + Michael - young professionals with no pets or kids so we have plenty of love to give to your fur babies! When you book with us, you’ll get two sitters for the price of one- and twice the amount of love to give 🥰 Whether your pet is a couch 🥔 or an active, nature lover 🏔️, we can’t wait to hang out with them doing their favorite activities! Walks around Freedom Park🐕🦺, playing hide and seek 🙈, playing fetch 🎾+ cuddling 🥰 are some of our favorite things to do with our little friends. If you book with us, we will inquire more about your pets such as their likes and dislikes, their personalities, and any requests you may have. During the duration of their entire stay, at least one of us will be hanging out with your fur baby in the same room at all times- but majority of the time it will be both of us! They will never be left alone unless communicated to you in advance prior to their stay. For drop-ins or walks, Michael will be the primary caretaker. We take only one client at a time but can take up to 3 pets from the same client. So rest assured, if you have a pet that doesn’t get along with others, yours will be safe and happy with us! The only rare exception to this is two return clients at one time- however we will be upfront and ask for permission from all parties first before confirming additional pets to ensure that everyone is happy :)
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Another great weekend with Michael and Diana, plenty of updates, videos and pictures so we knew our pup was happy and well taken care of!
Our dog London loves her walks with Michael! She gets so excited every time she gets to see him :-)
Diana and Michael are the best! This is the second time I have had them watch my dog Rocky and he loves going to their house. They are so great about sending videos, photos, and updates everyday. I can’t recommend them enough if you are looking for a reliable pet sitter!
Our golden, London, always loves staying with Diana & Michael! communication is always the best and absolute peace of mind knowing she's having the best time whenever she is with them!
Our dog was with Diana and Michael for boarding over the weekend and he was basically on vacation too he got some much love and attention! We got plenty of updates and photos and you could tell he was having an absolute blast. Our dog is typically a little anxious when we leave him other places and even after we come back, but we are so glad we found Diana and Michale because we could tell when we picked him up and the rest of that day that he was calm not anxious and that he must’ve truly felt at home with them.
Had a great experience using dog walking with Michael. He was very responsive and flexible to changes in our originally scheduled plans. Shared updates and pictures throughout. Highly recommend!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
We are available most weekends, Fri-Sun for boarding. Our jobs are flexible where we can WFH whenever we are taking care of your fur babies. If we are marked as unavailable but you need a longer stay, please reach out to us and we can see if we can make it work! Michael is available most days for drop-ins or walks.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a townhome in a quiet community that is very walkable. If your fur baby stays with us, one of us will plan on being with them at all times during their entire stay- but most of the time it will be both of us. There may be a few instances where we will need to run out for an errand but that will be rare and will be communicated ahead of time. If you are a first time client, we require an in-person meet + greet. This will allow for both parties to ensure we are both the right fit for each other. For safety, we require all pets to have identification on them during walks- whether it is on their collar or harness. We also require all dogs to be leashed on walks; we do not do off-leash walks. If your pet does not have identification or a leash for walks, we have extras! Lastly, we do not take any dogs to dog parks.
A typical day
Whether your pet is a couch potato or an active, nature lover, we can’t wait to hang out with them doing their favorite activities! Walks around Freedom Park, playing hide and seek, playing fetch, getting pup cups + cuddling are some of our favorite things to do with our little friends. We love to spend time at the White Water Center but we also love a good weekend staying in watching shows on the TV too. Whatever your little one wants to do- we’ll do it with them!

The only rare exception to this is two return clients at one time- however we will be upfront and ask for permission from all parties first before confirming additional pets to ensure that everyone is happy! We will also be asking you about your pet’s personality, temperament, behavior, preferences, health and anything else we should know! This will help us ensure that it is an enjoyable, safe, fun and the BEST time for your little ones. Such as: - What’s their daily routine? What do they LOVE doing? - Emergency contact info + your vet info - How does your pet do in a car? Would you like us to take your pet out on adventures like a park, trail, field, etc.? - Can they be around other pets in the house? (Cats, dogs, etc.) If your pet needs to be in a solo household, we can certainly accommodate if we are not already booked. - How are they around other dogs if we encountered some on a walk at the park? - How are they around other adults? Male vs female? - How are they around kids? - Does your pet have any triggers? - Is there any flight risk or tendency to run out the door? Has this happened before? - Are there certain commands that you use? - Any allergies? (I.e. Allergic to peanut butter or pup cups ?) - Any specific needs? Any no nos? (For example if you prefer your pets to not be in the bed or on furniture) - Can your pet be left alone? If so, for how long? (We plan on one of us being with your pet at all times during their stay but there are rare instances where we may need to step out for a bit.) - Anything else you’d like us to know! *We only accept requests from well behaved, non destructive pets that walk well on a leash. If your pet has any history of biting, attacking or any aggression towards humans, we are unable to watch your pet. We require all pets to be potty trained / house broken. We reserve the right to deny a request if your pet is not the right fit for us. We require at least a 72 hour advanced notice for new clients- this is to give us enough time for a meet and greet before the first stay.
