Love dogs!

Pet care experience

I am homebody type of person that enjoys having the company of friendly dogs whom definitely need company while their owner is away either for work or vacation. Leaving a dog behind can be stressful because I've been in those shoes. I found this to be a great opportunity to do something I like! Plus dogs are awesome! I'll make sure to send updates on your pets while you are away. I am pretty much available any day as long as it is coordinate with time to be fully prepared to receive your dog. Making this a great experience for your dog is something that I take very seriously because I wouldn't want my dog suffering in my absence. I hope to meet your dog soon!

Diego was such a fabulous dog sitter for Coco. He showed great love, care and affection as she was getting over being sick. He updated us regularly about her eating and medication and sent fun pictures of her living the best dog's life while we were away for the holiday. He was very communicative and kind. Thanks so much Diego! We'll def look for you in the future when we need a sitter for Coco.

Diego was fantastic with Gunner. Very flexible and accommodating to terrible holiday flight issues, but was an absolute relief for me knowing Gunner was in good hands with Diego!

Diego has now taken care of Chester several times. I love the regular photos, nice long walks and the fact that Chester really loves Diego. We will continue to use Diego! He is great!!

The dog will never be alone overnight. I highly recommended owners to provide a crate. This allows me to leave the dog in a safe space when I have to step out and for sleep. Most dogs feel safe when their bed or crate is provided.

Information Diego G. would like to know about your pet

I would like the owner to be upfront about the do’s and don’ts so when they go home they are still following your rules and above all - please tell me about any dietary restrictions or separation anxiety so that I can accommodate that during their stay here so everyone has a great visit. If you don’t want a lot of updates or do want a lot of updates to let me know so I can accommodate accordingly. Finally please be up front on medication and why your dog takes it and any medical conditions that he/she has so I’m fully aware so the best possible care is provided. I really stress that anything that makes the dog comfortable for his stay is welcomed: treats, bed, leash, toys, blanket! etc....

A typical day

I want to make your dog feel as comfortable as possible. Depending on his/her needs I would like to keep your dog local to what it is used to. Keeping their routine as normal as possible to avoid feeling anxious about not being with their owner.
