Experienced and Dedicated Caretaker

Pet care experience

I provide pet/farm sitting and dog walking services. Over 15 years experience working with all types of animals - dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, goats, sheep, chickens, parakeets. I have experience handling many different breeds - toy, working, hunting and others. I've worked with dogs that are kept as pets and dogs who work, and others that are both! I have a very calm personality and lot of patience. I strive to make sure any dog that I handle is comfortable with me and trusts me. I especially enjoy working with rescues who may need extra love and patience to let their personalities shine through. I currently have my own family of fur babies that have come from different backgrounds and I understand that each pet requires individual care. I also enjoy teaching basic obedience and commands if your dog needs help in those areas! I can also provide light grooming and bathing. References available upon request.

Diana on meet and greet was patient and asked great questions to gain insight on my 2 dogs. She carries treats and let the dogs get to know her. She sent pictures of my dogs, kept me updated on how they were doing and if there were any issues She definitely is a caring sitter and my dogs loved her

Diana really helped me with my dog's obedience and leash training. She was really reliable and very skilled at working with him. Her knowledge and love of dogs makes her a great dog sitter/ walker/ trainer.

Safety, trust & environment

Trust and communication is crucial to any relationship. I can provide photo and video updates taken during visits. Each pet is an individual and I do everything I can to make your pet comfortable, healthy, happy and loved.

Information Diana V. would like to know about your pet

I like to know the dog's history, age, training, any quirks or fears, and favorite treats/toys. I have no breed preferences. I'm experienced with working with dogs that have leash aggression (fear based or otherwise).

A typical day

Walks can be in the neighborhood, on walking/hiking trails or in parks - it will depend on the dog's activity level and personality. We can play fetch, tug of war or tag. Lots of belly rubs and ear scratches, and cuddles if the dog likes cuddling. Activities will depend on individual needs and likes.
