Let me know your dogs routine and any special things that they particularly like. Sleeping habits, treats they can have, what kind of foods, snacking? Personality traits, etc.

I live very close to the Legacy Trail so I would probably take your dog for a long walks in the beautiful nature along the trail. Also many parks in Venice. fetch toys, etc. and lots of hugs.

Pet care experience

Having done pet therapy in hospitals, and realizing how essential for well-being and joy animals bring to a persons life I decided this was a perfect position for me. I have had the privilege of caring for many kinds of animals from owning a horse farm to caring for smaller animals each one different and unique needs. My daughter calls me the animal whisperer. I have a calm demeanor and I think animals sense that and innately feel comfortable with me and warm up quickly. I value the importance of a scheduled routine whether it’s distributing medications, playtime, walks and cuddles I am happy to follow whatever instructions you may have to ensure your pet is well taken care of. Although I travel somewhat, I am retired and am quite flexible. Please feel free to ask any questions and I look forward to helping you with your animal needs in the future.

Diane was an awesome overnight dog sitter for our little Maltese. Our dog is afraid of strangers so we invited Diane over a day early to introduce her to Jamie and show her how to feed Jamie her pill at meals. Jamie was comfortable in Diane’s arms after a short while and we knew we could go away for a day and not worry. It was a wonderful experience and we would hire Diane again. Now we just have to plan our next get away…..

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
