Dogs are people too. Maybe better.

Pet care experience

I am a semi retired nurse. A nurturer by nature. I lived with friends and Sissy had puppies, which I fell in love with. I have experience from birth to senior dogs. I think animals are the greatest companions. Their lives are uncomplicated they bring joy. They are important family members. I welcome a change of scenery and an opportunity to meet new people by house/pet sitting. Committed to creating positive life experiences and responsible action. *As an RN I also offer Private Duty Nursing Care or Companion Care to other dog lovers. That is not a Rover service but can be provided.

Diana is absolutely the best! She was so caring to our 3 rambunctious dogs (one that is especially lively) and very attentive to their various needs. It is clear she really loves dogs and does this work because of this passion. She took our dogs for multiple walks even in rainy conditions! She kept us fully informed while we were away. She also went so beyond and above the call of duty in taking care of our home. She went so far as bringing in pillows and securing various pieces of outdoor furniture in preparation for the big rainstorm. She also washed all the bedding before we can home! She is truly a gem. I give her the highest recommendation!

I feel so incredibly fortunate to have found Diana to provide exemplary care for my beloved dog, Charlie and take excellent care of our home while we were away for a week. Diana’s conscientiousness made me feel confident to leave things in her hands, which was a true gift! I have a very difficult time separating from my dog and Diana put my anxiety at ease. She sent frequent updates and photos. When I returned home, it was far more clean than before we left. In fact, when I returned home, she was sweeping the floors! Charlie seemed happier than I’ve ever seen him after we’ve been away. There are no words to adequately express my gratitude to her. I simply cannot recommend her highly enough!

I set my own schedule. I like to house sit while caring for pets. I have a cat Adam he can come with me or go to my daughter's. Animals are important family members who deserve special attention while the people they love and depend on are away. Exercising your pets briskly is mutually beneficial and important everyday. I can provide maintenance of your home and garden. These essential tasks come naturally to me being a mature person having owned a home and raised a family.
