Availability

My work has a flexible hybrid system so for in office days, I would walk your pup right before leaving and right upon getting back home + before bed. My partner typically gets home earlier than me (and loves dogsitting with me!) in case your dog needs frequent potty breaks. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks most weekdays and some weekends.

Safety, trust & environment

For boarding requests, I only board one dog at a time. I live in a 1 bedroom in a high rise apartment with a doorman and elevator so your pup will be safe and sound. My partner and I are homebodies so we will be home most of the time to take great care of your pet. Happy to take your dog around the neighborhood and to local parks! My friends also love dogs so if you’re comfortable with it, I like to bring the dog on my daily adventures as well.

Information Diane J. would like to know about your pet

During our meet and greet, I’ll ask you more questions about your dog’s personality, tendencies, quirks, or anything else I should be aware of. Whether they’re shy with other dogs or really food motivated, I’ll be sure to take note of what your dog needs. I would also love to know if they have favorite toys or snacks that can make them feel more at home, and if there are any other accommodations they need!

A typical day

I’ll take your dogs to a nearby park if they like to socialize and play with other dogs, or if they’re a bit shy, a route around the neighborhood! At home, we will give your pets lots of attention and cuddles and play fetch or tug of war with their fave toys.

Pet care experience

Get $20 off for your first Rover booking with my code: DIANEJ75533 (https://www.rover.com/sit/dianej75533) I’ve taken care of my own dog back at my parents home since 2009, and have cat and dog sat and walked for local clients, friends and family! I’ve fed, walked, played with, bathed, and groomed dogs before, and looking to pick up pet sitting now that I’m in the city (I miss my dog back home!) For boarding, I only board one dog at a time, or up to three dogs from the same household. Once you book, we’ll have a meet and greet for me to meet and ask questions about your pup’s habits and quirks, feeding and walking schedule, any special instructions - and I’ll be taking notes along the way so I don’t forget anything and can keep a record for future visits. I also guarantee daily updates via text once or more a day with photos of where we adventured.

Diane was great with our little Foxy. Foxy warmed up to her quickly and seemed happy and well-cared for. We would use Diane again.
