Availability
Because I work full-time from home, my schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to integrate dedicated pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. Your furbaby will never feel lonely and will get plenty of attention throughout the day! Daytime Companionship & House Sitting: Working remotely means I am physically present. If I am house sitting or drop-in, your baby will have me nearby for potty breaks, scratches, and companionship while I'm there with them. Flexible Mid-Day Walks & Drop-Ins: I can easily step away for lunch-hour strolls or mid-day check-ins to break up your pet's day. Last-Minute Coverage: Life happens! Because I don't have a rigid commute, I am highly available for last-minute drop-in visits or emergency dog walking when your plans unexpectedly change. Whether you need a reliable routine or a quick, last-minute hand, I’m here to make sure your pup/kitty stays safe, happy, and on schedule.

About Diya H.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. Because I work full-time from home, your furbaby is always under a watchful eye during house sittings, and I bring a strict, proactive safety protocol to every single walk and drop-in visit. On Walks & Outings: The Leash Never Leaves My Hand: Safety outside is absolute. I maintain a firm, constant grip on the leash at all times—no exceptions. Patience for Sniffing: Walks aren't just for exercise; they are for mental stimulation. I stop frequently to let dogs explore and smell their surroundings at their own pace. Weather-Ready Preparation: I make sure your dog is fully protected before we step out, whether that means applying anti-bug spray, putting on their doggie boots for hot pavement/cold ground, or dressing them in their raincoat. Constant Visual Supervison: Your dog will never leave my sight. I stay 100% focused on them, monitoring the surroundings for off-leash dogs or potential hazards. Cleanliness First: I always clean up after your dog during the walk. When we return, I wipe down their paws and fur so your floors stay completely clean. In Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins): Respecting Your Space & Routine: I treat your home with the utmost respect and strictly follow your dog/cat's established schedule (feeding times, medication windows, and crating preferences) to keep their anxiety low. Meticulous Health & Medication Tracking: If your pet has medical needs, I track their daily medication schedule, appetite, energy, and bathroom breaks with exact precision. I am happy to maintain a daily log for you so you have full visibility into their well-being. Double-Checking Security: I always ensure all doors, windows, and yard gates are securely locked when entering or leaving your home. No matter the service, I provide frequent photo and text updates so you always know exactly how your furry family member is doing!
Information Diya H. would like to know about your pet
To ensure I provide the absolute best and safest care for your furry family member, please share a few details about them before our first booking or Meet & Greet: Health & Medical Needs (Especially for Seniors): Medication Schedule: What is the exact dosage, timing, and preferred method of administration (e.g., hidden in a treat, mixed with food)? Mobility & Physical Limits: Does your pet have arthritis, trouble with stairs, or a specific pace they need to maintain on walks? Dietary Restrictions: Are there any strict food allergies, specific feeding times, or treats I should avoid? Behavior & Safety Protocols: Leash Manners & Triggers: How do they react to seeing other dogs, cats, squirrels, or strangers on walks? Do they have a tendency to pull or bolt? Gear Preferences: Do they wear a specific harness, collar, raincoat, or paw boots? (Please let me know if you would like me to apply anti-bug spray before walks). Anxiety & Comfort: Do they experience separation anxiety, or are they afraid of loud noises like thunder or fireworks? What helps comfort them? For Cat Owners: Social Preferences: Is your cat social and playful, or do they prefer to hide and be left alone when someone new is in the house? Litter & Feeding Routine: Where is the litter box located, and how often do they prefer their wet/dry food refreshed? Note: Every detail you share will be used to customize their daily care plan. If your pet has a complex medical routine, feel free to share your existing instructions, and I will seamlessly integrate them into my daily tracking log!
A typical day
Because I work full-time from home, my schedule revolves around keeping your pets engaged, comfortable, and safe. A typical day is the perfect balance of structured attention, physical exercise, and mental stimulation. Please note that everything listed below is entirely optional and will be customized strictly based on your specific rules, preferences, and your pet's unique needs! For My Canine Friends: Enriching "Sniffari" Walks: If you like, we can go on slow, intentional walks where I stop frequently to let your dog sniff and explore, providing wonderful mental exercise. Weather-Ready Gear: Based on your routine and the weather, I can prep them with a raincoat, protective paw boots, or a quick mist of pet-safe bug spray before stepping out. Post-Walk Clean-Up: When we return, I can do a gentle paw-and-belly wipe-down so they feel fresh and your home stays perfectly clean. Tailored Play & Enrichment: For puppies, I can engage them with puzzle toys, indoor fetch, or basic command practice. For sweet seniors, "fun" might simply mean long cuddles, gentle brushing, and quiet companionship right next to my desk. For My Feline Friends: Active Playtime: For active cats, I can use wand toys, laser pointers, or feather chasers to mimic "hunting" games that keep them agile and happy. Treat Puzzles & Senses: I’m happy to set up interactive treat puzzles or introduce safe catnip toys if that’s something they enjoy. Premium Lounge & Grooming: If your cat is independent or shy, I completely respect their boundaries. I am happy to offer gentle brushing, chin scratches, or simply quiet company while I work. Throughout the Day: Your pet's routine is my blueprint. I strictly track their meals, bathroom breaks, and behavior, and you can expect plenty of cute photo and text updates so you know exactly how they are doing!

Senior & Medical Need Expert
Pet care experience
What truly sets me apart is my deep commitment to providing attentive, specialized care for dogs at every stage of life. I don't just watch pets; I understand their unique rhythms and needs. I grew up with dogs and spent years caring for my own three sweet senior dogs until the the oldest baby passed at age 17. Through that journey, I became highly experienced in managing senior care, administering daily medications, and meticulously tracking health conditions and daily activities to ensure comfort and well-being. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave a senior or special-needs pup/kitty with someone, and I bring that exact level of devotion to every furbaby I care with. In addition to senior care, I am fully experienced in managing multi-dog and mutlti-cat households and keeping up with the high energy and structure needed for younger ones. Whether your baby needs gentle, patient medical care or active supervision and playtime, I treat them like family.

Reviews
Die is a fantastic dog sitter, she is a friend of mine and whenever I left for travel I always trusted her to take my dog while I'm away. Herself has 2 poodles and I have a lab, she's capable of caring of both big size and small size dogs. I haven't seen any dog dislike her so far lol. She's caring and responsible at every detailed small things, there shouldn't be any concern trusting her
