Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable & Loving Pet Care
In 1.5 yrs of pet sitting, I’ve had fun with more than 33 pets and enjoyed meeting many nice pet parents. I work 20 hrs online and have a lot of time to care for your pet(s). I’m reliable and have never cancelled a sit. I will leave your place clean and tidy.
Cat care experience
Diane also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When I care for cats, dogs, or birds I follow the your instructions. I would not want your pet to get sick while in my care. If pets enjoy brushing, I spend a lot of time brushing. I love walking so I’ll walk the dog as instructed, sometimes more. If yoru dog likes car rides, I may even take him/her to the beach if you agree. I only pet sit one dog at a time, but I’ve pet sit 6 cats at once. I’m experienced with senior pets and giving medications. I really love animals.
Ratings and reviews
Diane was great! When Diane came for the first time to meet us Maggie went straight to her with her tail wagging. Dogs are a great judge of character and I knew at that point Maggie was going to be fine without us. When we returned home the house was immaculate and Maggie was happy. I would highly recommend Diane!
If you have an animal that you love dearly and needs a pet sitter …. Diane is your person. Our dog will be 3 in October. She has NEVER been left with anyone other than the four people in our house. We would consider our dog shy and high maintenance. Diane came in with confidence and took such good care of our dog and our home. Her attention to detail is outstanding. Her love for animals is amazing and she left our place looking excellent. We had a stress and worry free 10 day dream vacation with our family. Thank you Diane and rover for this excellent experience! 😀💗
Diane cared for our 1.5 year old mini bernedoodle while we were away for a week. Additionally, she watered our garden and household plants. She provided loving care and exercise to our dog, and took excellent care of our home. When we returned our home was very clean and tidy and our dog was happy. She had clear and helpful communication, asked questions if needed, but also let us have our vacation without unnecessary interruptions. :) It was clear that she loves animals and is responsible and reliable. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to others!
Diane is a fantastic sitter! Our slow to warm dog warmed up to her very quickly, and she took excellent care of her. She figured out what worked routine and food wise right away. Our dog usually doesn’t eat much the first 24 hours but with Diane, she ate a full meal at her next meal time. Remi loves her! Diane is also neat and tidy, the house looked great when we returned. And she was so good about sending us photos and videos while we were away. I highly recommend Diane, we are fortunate she was available to sit for our following vacation, and she was amazing the second time as well. We are so grateful!
I’ve had the pleasure of having Diane pet sit my beloved cat Oskar several times, and each experience has been wonderful. She is super friendly and professional, loving and affectionate with Oskar, and took excellent care of our house in Houston while we were away. Diane always stays in touch, sharing daily pictures and videos of her playing with Oskar. She even brought him toys and treats, which he loved! It’s been such a lovely experience, and I’m happy to highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.
We are grateful to have Diane to have been our pet / housesitter for over a month. She took fabulous care of our pets, also our potted plants, landscaping and home. Everything at our house was in even better order than when we left it if that could be possible. We're grateful she enjoys our home and property and animals as much as we do. We were lucky to have spent the evening with Diane before we left, and when we returned we realize she was the person we thought her to be. BTW she truly is a human who loves animals!

Schedule
I work online about 20 hrs a week. I am up between 6 and 7am. I care for your fur baby then do a 20 minute workout, and get ready for my day. I work a couple of hours then take a break and enjoy time with your pet. I will work a couple more hours somewhere in the day. I am flexible. I usually go to bed between 10 and 11pm. I have plenty of time to take care of your pet(s) and a house. I am passionate about cats, dogs, and birds. I take time to observe them and learn about their personality. I see myself as a pet grandma. I give them extra attention and love. I used to own a cleaning business, so I always leave your house clean and I wash bedding and towels unless you don't want me to. I enjoye caring for a house.

- I’d like to know if your pet has a favourite toy or blanky, any allergies, does anything make them anxious or agressive? Has your pet ever bit someone? What are their sleep habits? Where are they allowed in the house? How often do they get treats? Anything else you think is important for me to know.
