Thank you SO much Diana, a resolute professional who didn't just provide tender care for my baby, she also gave me really helpful and insight and tips on care for Mia, as a recent solo dog dad this was massive for me.

Diana was absolutely wonderful, and I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Yabi! Yabi is a high-energy rescue dog who is also very sensitive and has higher levels of anxiety due to his trauma history, and Diana truly has a magic touch with him. Her calm and caring demeanor, along with her patience, attentiveness, and ability to provide structure, was exactly what Yabi needed to feel safe and comfortable. It was such a relief to pick Yabi up looking happy, relaxed, and content—especially compared to how anxious and stressed he has been when I’ve picked him up from larger boarding facilities. It has been very challenging to find the right fit for him, so I’m incredibly grateful that we found Diana, and my only wish is that we would have found her sooner! Diana was also wonderful about communicating and sending regular photo updates. She went above and beyond in so many little ways, even sending Yabi home with a new bag of treats and cleaning out his dog bowl. She clearly pays attention to the important details, and Diana took care of Yabi as if he were her own. She was also incredibly flexible and gracious when our flight was unexpectedly delayed, and we had to coordinate a later pickup time. I truly couldn’t recommend her more highly. She is one of a kind, and I will absolutely be booking with her again!

My Angus was happy as always to see Diana and is right at home there. A true home away from home for my boy :)

Diana was so amazing! She was so attentive and caring to my dog Carmie while I was away for the weekend, and took her for tons of good walks. She sent photos and updates, leaving me with peace of mind that my dog was in good hands. Carmie didn't want to leave when I picked her up! I definitely plan to use Diana again for my dog sitting needs.

Diana has cared for Maggie a few times now and we’re so pleased every time. Maggie loves seeing her and we always feel at ease knowing she’s in great hands. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in my home as I would my own pets. They have access to all rooms. They can sit on the couch. Sleeping space is delegated to the living room if it’s a crate situation. However, I keep my bedroom door open, and pets can choose their spot. Feeding takes place in the kitchen, and my neighbourhood is great for walks with a dog park a couple of blocks away.

A typical day

We can play hide n seek with stuffies or treats, or go for a walk down 7th or the seawall. I also have a huge dog park nearby and we could walk that way if your dog is ok in a social setting. I do long walks and can guarantee 3 walks a day🐕🦮🐕‍🦺

Of course, I’d expect to be notified if the dog has any allergies or physical injuries. I know some dogs have triggers (bikes, skateboards…) and this would be important for me to know.
