Pet care experience

Experienced, active caretaker

I have a stellar reputation on Airbnb, and have been trusted by family, friends, and strangers to care for their canine family with care and punctuality. I have house-sat and walked a number of different breeds/temperaments from small to large (French Bulldog, Shiba, Black Lab, German Shephard, Husky, Pitbull, Stadforshire Terrier) I am enthusiastic to exercise and play with your dog while playing an active role in socializing them. I am intent to learn about your pup before meeting her/him to make sure he/she has the best time during our walk or play date. I am slightly allergic to cats but I do enjoy taking care of ones that don't need too much handling as part of their care. I've also cared for birds, reptiles, snakes, rabbits, cows, horses and chickens.

Safety, trust & environment

When I enter a home I'm perceptive to dogs to allow them to build trust, and annouce myself gently. Pets are excellent communicators so I often follow or respond to their lead to establish a connection, otherwise a calm positivity is how I show them my presence is rewarding. I do not hype dogs up in the house unless I know their temperament and am planning to give them a sniffing walk afterwards to metabolize the excitement back into regulated calm.

Diego is awesome. He took wonderful care of Lulu and she was happy and relaxed when I returned from my trip.

Diego did a great job for my two pups. I was a little outside of his normal coverage area, but he made an exception for me and I really appreciated it!

Diego took great care of my dog while I was out of town! I returned to a sleeping pup who had clearly had lots of exercise, fun, and attention. Thanks Diego for keeping Franky company!

Diego was an excellent sitter for my Rico. He sent pictures and updates but not too many which was nice. I plan on booking him again.
