Dog drop ins, walks, drives, & love

Pet care experience

Grew up taking care of my family’s Maltese and Silky Terrier, as well as 2 cats! I adopted a senior dog (Sofi) in 2020 that suffered with separation anxiety, health issues, dementia. Unfortunately my sweet girl passed away this year, but caring for her allowed me to gain over 3 years experience caring for a special needs animal. I was an original chief officer of an animal-based 501(c)3 nonprofit, and had heavy involvement with local animal organizations in Wisconsin prior to moving to Chicago. Animals hold a special place in my heart! Special needs animals are more than welcomed in my care!

Diana was kind enough to do a last minute booking. She kept us updated and took great care of Cannoli, and he seemed really comfortable and relaxed with her and we would happily have her watch him again.

I have known Diana as a friendly neighbor for over 5 years now. She’s been walking my two dogs, Calvin and Grover, for about 4 of those years. The boys love her so much, and they miss her even more now that she’s gone off to college. Any dog, in Arizona or elsewhere, would be lucky to have Diana as a walker and as a pal. She trained both of my boys tricks that I hadn’t even tried to, and she was always willing to work, never to complain about any task at hand. She is an angel and a dog whisperer, and anyone who has the opportunity should consider hiring her as a dog walker.

Diana has spent about 3 years playing, teaching, and caring for my dog Bentley. She taught her tricks, spent hours walking her, and drove her to the vet, store, and park when needed. Bentley loves her so much!

Your animal’s reactiveness to other animals, children, or environments, and if special routines and medication are needed. I am always happy to accommodate all needs, nothing is ever too much.
