Pet Sitter for your Furry Friend

Pet care experience

I am a college student going to Medical School with a love for animals and healthcare. I considered Veterinary School and eventually decided on human medicine but continue to look for opportunities to help out animals and their families in anyway I can. I have a lot of experience caring for older and more delicate (health-wise) dogs including keeping a medication schedule and taking vitals. I understand all animals have different personalities and need time to adjust to the introduction of a new caretakers and I respect their boundaries when it comes to pet care. Accidents and slobber do not bother me one bit I am comfortable to all the potential messy bits of pet care. I love going on walks and my neighborhood is a loop with a series of cul de sacs perfect for adjusting to any dogs walk length preference. My house is very pet friendly and pets are permitted to explore with supervision if permitted by their owner. I would be happy to cuddle up on the couch and watch tv, run around the house, engage in an intense match of tug-o-war, or give them their space to hang out alone depending on your pets preference. I have a 22-inch crate and bed, leash, bowls, brush, chew toy, tennis balls, and dog shampoo and conditioner just in case. I have a bit of experience with shelter/adopted dogs from occasionally volunteering at the humane society.

Diana would be a caring and dependable dog caregiver. She will treat the dogs with patience and unconditional love to make sure all their needs are met. I often saw her taking care of her dog, Browny. She was very gentle playing with him and gave him lots of care and attention, always ensuring he was healthy and happy. In his old age she remained very patient and catered to his every need.

Diana is such a caring and loving pet caretaker she always puts the animal’s needs before her own. I have known her for years and she definitely has a gift when it comes to animals. She took such good care of her previous dog up until he passed away staying on top of his medications and other necessary treatments. Her outgoing personality makes her such a fun person to be around whether you are a dog or human! I would trust her with any and all my pets who need another friend!

I was very pleased with Diana as my pet sitter last weekend! She showed great concern for my 6 Golden Retreivers (and 2 iguanas). My pets really liked her, and she even made some puppy treats! Diana is very trustworthy, reliable, and dependable!

Diana is one of the most caring, loving people I know. She took great care of her dog Browny for 11 years and provided him with lots of love and affection. She is also incredibly responsible, trustworthy, and dependable. Diana genuinely loves all dogs and is well-educated about their needs. She’s a calm, level-headed person who will do a great job taking care of your dog!

A typical day

I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood perfect for walks and exploring new yards. My house has multiple stairs to run up and down on when we get excited. I have a finished basement with stain-proof carpet perfect to romp around in and clean up any potential accidents but we are welcome to explore the whole house and watch TV on the sofa if allowed.
