Safety, trust & environment

I provide pet care exclusively in the client’s home, allowing pets to remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, dietary needs, exercise, and daily routines. Care includes providing fresh water, playtime, walks if needed, companionship, and administering medications as directed. I also maintain cleanliness by cleaning litter boxes, cages, and pet areas, and I ensure the home is left tidy and secure after each visit. I prioritize the pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being while providing regular updates to owners for peace of mind.

Information Diane D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, or anything about the home, I need to know. Always available by text and calls.

A typical day

It really varies depending on the animal and what the client would like and what is best for the pet. go for walks, play with toys, cuddle, it just runs the gamut.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail and the level of care and communication I provide. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, monitoring, or medication. I prioritize clear, ongoing communication by regularly checking in with owners, sending updates and photos, and making sure they feel confident about how their pets are doing. I’m also happy to help with small errands, such as picking up pet supplies or essentials, to make time away as stress-free as possible. I treat every pet as if they were my own and every home with care and respect. Not scared of dirty work, cleaning litter boxes, wiping paws and administering meds.

We didn’t get to use Diane this time. Our 14 year old Border Collie, Mouse, passed right before Diane was supposed to sit. My husband ended up canceling his trip and stayed home with our cats. However, Diane was very professional and friendly during our meet and greet and extremely empathetic upon finding out about Mouse.

I am a proud dog dad to a very large and rambunctious mastiff/pit mix. I’m also a very frequent client of Diane. As a pet sitter (and animal lover herself) she is so kind, patient and knowledgeable. I appreciate that she is incredibly communicative; sending photo updates throughout my time away and dedicated to keeping my dog happy, healthy and loved. I have often booked Diane to stay at my home with my dog and she has been so incredibly respectful of my space as well. I couldn’t ask for a better person to entrust my dog and home to. I can’t see myself using anyone else and will confidently recommend her to anyone.

Diane has watched my pets many many times. I own 3 cats, 2 dogs, and a bearded dragon. She is patient, consistent, and loving with all of my pets. She sends pictures and give updates daily. She is incredibly thorough and detail oriented. Diane has pet sat for me dozens of times and I feel safe anytime I need to leave town knowing that she will be on top of everything.

I am writing this testimonial in great support of recommending Diane for all your pet sitting needs. Over the past year, Diane has watched over 2 of my family pets. Both larger dog breeds, each with their own unique sets of needs and requirements. The first is "Toby", my mother's 14 year old Basidor mix who has lost his hearing and has special dietary needs. Diane's diligence and attention to detail ensured that not only was Toby taken care of properly but also that my mother could rest easy knowing that her beloved pet was in good hands while she was in the hospital. The second is my dog Macca, a full blood Doberman, that Diane cared for while I was away on vacation. Doberman's are a great breed but they demand a handler who is skilled and confident. Macca was like putty in Diane's hands and I was able to enjoy my trip without any worry. It is Diane's kind and empathetic nature that makes her an excellent pet sitter. I truly believe that the animals pick up on her kindness and are put at ease in what can be a stressfull situation of their humans being away from home. It is also Diane's attention to detail that sets her apart from other sitters. She really takes the time to get to know each pet's individual needs and personalities. Highly recommend her!
