I create a quiet, relaxing atmosphere to offset what can otherwise be a stressful experience for a dog. I have experience with breeds of all types including herding, terrier, working, and toy breeds.

Diane and Vincent took great care of our dog. They were quick to pick up on his personality traits, and were able to accommodate them. They had great communication with updates upon request, and on their own. I think our separation anxiety ridden dog actually enjoyed his time with their family and new dog friends!

Diane and family did an awesome job! Consistent updates and pictures kept our family feel knowing our pup was in great hands. He received plenty of exercise and snuggles while boarding. We could tell Diane was very attentive to our pup. I recommend her services and will likely use them on our next trip.

Diane and her family are so amazing! We have a one year old dog that we had never boarded before and just didn’t feel like the kennel was the right fit for us. We found Diane on Rover and all of her great reviews made us feel so comfortable leaving Bo with her. She sent us updates with pictures all week and honestly the peace of mind knowing that he was being so well taken care of made our vacation that much better. We seriously couldn’t be happier and can’t recommend Diane enough! Thank you so much Diane, you will definitely be seeing Bo again very soon!!

Safety, trust & environment

While crate-training is a MUST for safety, dogs will not be in crates except if we need to run out for errands. We do not leave dogs unattended outdoors or allow to co-mingle unsupervised indoors. Entryways are double-gated to guard against escapees. We take your pet's safety seriously!

Information Diane & Vincent S. would like to know about your pet

Dogs must be friendly and not aggressive because I have children. Please keep this in mind as you consider us as a potential dog sitter. We are not for every dog and we want to ensure your dog is comfortable in its environment. Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. Understanding what might make your pet nervous or anxious can be helpful in managing their living space. Now for the fun stuff: I am at home daily and my schedule allows me to make this a super fun experience - this is your dog's vacation. My daily routine is to go out for a walk first and last thing, enjoy the fresh air, help them get to their business . Enjoy the beautiful day. Sun ☀️⛅ & Fun. Out & About. Explore the scenery & greenery. Play with toys ⚽ or sniff around all the new spots. Stimulate their mind enough to tire themselves out. And then floor time with the ones whose walking legs are retired and couch time for the ones who want cuddles. My 11 yo and 8 yo children will also want to have their go with cuddles, play, and treats, as we all trying to become the favorite. I have a fenced in yard and a large home for dogs to explore for their favorite spot. I have crates and baby gates for separation or quiet time but encourage integration. We do have an in-ground pool in the fenced in area (safety-covered in off season).

A typical day

Dogs will frequently be found snoozing by my side on the carpet, or they will make their way to a quiet cool space on the leather sectional. The door to the backyard allows dogs to pass in and out as frequently as they desire.
