Didi's place is so much fun!

Pet care experience

Hiii! It's Didi from Brooklyn who has great love for all kinds of animals but especially dogs! I've been dog-sitting full-time since 2015. I had worked in doggy daycares and volunteered in no kill shelters in New York for several years. I obtain New York State Health Department's certificate on handling and hygiene of small animals, Knowing Dogs 101-201 certificates from Dog gurus and I am also pet first aid and CPR certified. I just love caring for our furry friends. I think that is my purpose in life and I feel so lucky to be able to do this full time. And I do my best to learn new skills every day. I have many clients who have become like family over the years. You could get an idea of how I care for my furbabies from my reviews. Per my voluntary work with rescues for years, I had experience with many different kinds of dogs. I am comfortable in handling different size and energy dogs. These animals, they give you everything and all they ask for is to be loved and cherished which is the most joyful thing on Earth, to love a dog :) I have 2 year old Havanese named Binx who's the sweetest angel on the planet and looooves hosting his buddies. Feel free to check out his instagram (@itsabinxworld) to have a better idea of how things are around in our home :) Binx and I try to keep the stories fun! I have a fenced yard where the pups can hang out and play. It's completely closed with only one entrance/exit and that is through the house.

Didi took care of my active pup, Archer, and I couldn't be happier with her service. She provided regular updates and sent adorable photos, giving me peace of mind while I was away. My dog seemed content and well-cared for upon my return. I highly recommend Didi for anyone in need of a reliable and attentive dog sitter.

Didi took amazing care of my Nala while I was away for a few days. We met in the park prior to her stay and Nala became fast friends with her sweet little dog and Nala immediately felt comfortable with Didi. Didi is very sweet and helpful, accommodating my change in travel plans and date/time to pick up. Nala will be staying with Didi again!

Didi was a great option for us to watch our lab Carl. She wasn’t scared off by a large dog, put a lot of time in beforehand to meet with us and even offered to do a test run with him at her house before the actual booking. I trusted her while I was out of town and will definitely be working with her again.

Our girl had such an incredible time at Didi’s. She went above in beyond with doing a meet and greet and daycare trial before our 5 day overnight stay. We felt super comfortable and confident that our dog was safe and happy to be there! Didi sent frequent updates and pictures which was amazing and really lovely to have. (Above and beyond again) We will highly recommend Didi and Binx (her awesome dog) to anyone looking for a sitter and will for sure be sending Louise to hang there in the future! She is a true dog lover and genuinely cares about your dogs needs, temperament, comfort and care. You can see this clearly in her process and the questions she asks. Thanks again Didi!!

Information Didi B. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed preferences. I love them all so much! They only need to be *friendly and well socialized with ALL other dogs *spayed/neutered *HOUSE-TRAINED (No exceptions) *up-to-date with all vaccines, flea/tick and heartgard meds. I would like to know the commands/tricks your dog knows. Knowing his/her daily routine would also help me to give him/her the best care possible. ***PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOUR PUP IS UP TO DATE WITH VACCINES AND MONTHLY FLEA/TICK MEDICATIONS! I AM REQUIRED TO HAVE YOUR PUP'S VACCINATION RECORDS SO PLEASE MAKE SURE TO SEND IT TO ME BEFORE THE STAY. THANK YOU! ***PLEASE mention if your pup has any allergies, if on a restricted diet, if can only get certain type of treats etc... If you have a certain way of things with them, like stop and sit before going out the door... Just let me know and I'll continue with their routine.

A typical day

I love spending time with my buddies and I live very close to a few parks (McGolrick, McCarren, Cooper). We'll be enjoying walks few times daily depending on their needs. We'll also be enjoying the fun neighborhoods of Williamsburg/Greenpoint together. In our new apartment, we now have a big, fenced backyard. I don't have roommates, I live with my partner who's also a big dog lover. We co-parent our dog Binx. It'll be a pleasure for me to spend time with your best friend! I can also be helpful with any special needs (medications, shots, special diet, etc...) they may have. ***We have residential AC in our unit that works well for warm summer days. And again residential heating for cold winter nights :) ***They are allowed on furniture in our house. I have a few dog beds of different sizes. They have many options to choose amongst :) Sometimes there are places I need to be but I make sure I'm not away from home more than a few hours at once. I make sure my pups all have their own space to chill and I have a camera so I can see what they're up to while I'm away. ***Please make sure to complete your pup's profile before sending a request. It'll be really helpful for me to have a little info beforehand. Also please make sure to read my full sitter profile, too. It has all the information you might want to know :) ***I require a meet n' greet before accepting a pup so last minute requests may not always work for me even if I'm available. I believe this is the best way to know if I'm the right fit for your pup and I want to make sure that I am! :) ***I also require a trial day with new pups for temperament evaluation and just to see how everything goes. This helps keeping things smooth and more fun! :) ***I host puppies under 1 year old but that's on a case by case basis. They HAVE TO be house-trained as this is a HOME, not a dog boarding facility. Thanks for understanding. ***My pups' paws and privates are always wiped after every walk with Seventh Generation sensitive skin wipes. ***Drop off and pick up times can be anywhere from 8am to 7pm on week days. Even though I do our best to be as flexible as possible, just per our past experiences, I do not prefer drop offs/pick ups earlier than 10am and later than 6pm on the weekends. Please coordinate with me if your plane is landing (or else) after 6pm on a weekend. If I have anywhere to be on the day of your return, we can discuss other options. As weekends are the only times I can have a plan every once in a while. Thanks for understanding! ***Please note that if your pick up time is later than your drop off time, there will be an additional fee that is applied by Rover. Just to keep it fair, please enter your drop off and pick up times accurately. I do provide lots and lots of snuggles, cuddles, hugs, kisses, playtime and unconditional love for my pals! <3
