Highlights
Pet care experience
All Pets Deserve Great Care
I’m a dedicated animal lover with hands-on experience working at a dog daycare, caring for my own pets, and rescuing animals in need. I’ve worked with a variety of animals and love getting to know each of their unique personalities. I’m attentive, patient, and playful, and I always take the time to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for. Whether it’s active play, a calm walk, or just keeping them company, I treat every animal like they’re my own.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Diana is a serious minded dog sitter who does an excellent job caring for my dog. She asks all the right questions and when watching our dog, she does enriching activities. Diana is trustworthy and excellent with dogs.
Diana is truly exceptional, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. My Golden Retriever, Bria, absolutely adores her. In fact, Diana previously worked at Bria's daycare, and Bria was so attached to her that she would follow Diana everywhere. The owner often had to separate them because Bria never wanted to leave Diana's side! Whenever Diana cares for Bria, I have complete peace of mind. She sends an incredible number of photos and videos throughout the day, so I always know Bria is happy, safe, and having a wonderful time. What really sets Diana apart is how much she genuinely cares. While I was away during a blizzard, Diana went above and beyond by purchasing a winter coat for Bria herself to make sure she stayed warm and comfortable. Despite the challenging weather, she still took Bria on daily outings to Central Park and made sure she got plenty of exercise and enrichment. Diana has a natural gift with dogs. They trust her, love her, and thrive in her care. Bria gets excited every time she sees her, and that says everything. Diana treats every dog as if they were her own, and any pet would be lucky to spend time with her. Five stars isn't enough!
Diana was wonderful with our 8lb Affenpinscher. She cared for him for a long weekend and sent many updates. Followed all instructions and even did some training! Would recommend her highly!
Diana is simply one of the best. As someone who worked at a doggy daycare, she brings a level of expertise and genuine care to pet sitting and walking that's hard to find. She stayed in our home with our two mini aussies while we were out of town, and we left feeling completely at ease. Diana is observant in a way that really stands out — she notices the little things, whether it's a change in behavior or just knowing when one of the dogs needs some extra attention. She's knowledgeable, handles dogs with real confidence, and treated our home with total respect. On top of all that, she's warm, friendly, and just a genuinely kind person. Coming home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs (and a tidy house!) says everything. We couldn't recommend Diana more highly.

Schedule
Caring for animals is part of my everyday life, from daily walks and feeding to making time for play and attention. I naturally build my routine around pets’ needs, so they always receive consistent, reliable care.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes by keeping their routines consistent, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. I offer boarding, drop-ins, and walks, and I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets as long as they’re a good match. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and attentive environment, and I always send photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

A typical day
I love keeping pets engaged with activities that match their personality and energy level. I enjoy taking dogs on calm, longer walks, along with a mix of fetch, playtime, and relaxed outdoor time. I also like to incorporate basic training into play so it feels fun and rewarding for them. For cats, I enjoy interactive play that keeps them active while still respecting their independent nature.
