Safety, trust & environment

At client homes if we are going outside and it's not fenced yard the pet is on a leash. I never let them out of my sight when outside of them home as I know the outdoors can be unpredictable.

Information Dianne S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preference, but any special care needs would like to know in advance, and dogs must be house trained. also preferably cat friendly if not we can work it out.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks There is a park down the street I can walk him to, and a loop neighborhood I can walk the dog around. Your dog's sleeping arrangement We have guest bedroom if the dog normally sleeps in a room alone, or can sleep in any of our three rooms. If your dog has a crate please bring and we can have it set up in our living room. Time I'll spend with your dog As much time as the dog wants or needs, my goal is to make sure that the guest dog is happy, and they will have my full attention.

Pet care experience

Dog lover of all kinds, I have 2 cats, but they are very kind to anyone, and any dog. I'm willing to make sure any special needs for the dog are seen to. I will give all my attention to the guest dog during their stay, and will keep you posted with pictures and updates on how everything is going. Any extended stay is welcome arrangement must be met. About this sitter: I'm more than capable of coming to your home, and watching your family member while you are away. Anything you need I can accommodate. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover since I was born we had a puppy when I was born he was a mixed breed, and then when I was about ten we had a Samoan, and Pomeranian. I've had experience with dogs big and small, and it's all love. Meet my pets 3 cats. My experience administering medication No shots. Any ointment, pills, or drops are fine.

Dianne was a hit with my bigger dogs. Even the husky that always thinks that he is in charge listened to her. They were immediately taken by her and seemed to have a good and fun time. Highly recommend her for the bigger dogs.

Dianne did such a great job!! She sent tons of updates such definitely helped my anxiety! My dog can be a little shy but he did great with her. My cat absolutely loved her! She is also very responsive to all message which I really appreciated!

Dianne house sat and watched our 11 year old golden retriever while we were away for a few days. She is a wonderful communicator and I felt confident that our pup was well cared for and spoiled. I would not hesitate to use Dianne again in the future!
