Your Dog's New BFF & Cat's Servant

I've been around animals since I was a little kid. Grew up on my grandparents' farm taking care of dogs, bunnies, pigs, sheep, cows, you name it. That's where my love for them started. I've trained every dog I've ever owned myself — from a big Rottweiler to a tiny Chihuahua-pug mix, and now my German Shepherd that I raised from a puppy. I'm good at reading their body language, teaching manners, and fixing leash reactivity so walks are actually enjoyable. Been walking dogs for friends and family for years and house-sat a bunch of times. I'll treat your pets like my own — give them the love and attention they deserve, keep them well-behaved, and make sure you have total peace of mind while you're gone. Your dog will be spoiled, safe, and happy with me.

Amazing service. Diego was communicative before booking and during the service. He took amazing care of our kitties, and was able to accommodate us on short notice. He went above and beyond, and we look forward to booking with him in the future.

Diego took wonderful care of our 8-week-old puppy. He was very attentive and caring, and made sure to spend plenty of time playing with him. Thank you, Diego, for being so professional and caring. We highly recommend you and will definitely trust you with our puppy again!

Schedule

I recently transitioned to full-time pet care, so I'm home all day, every day; weekdays and weekends. That means your dog gets my full attention, whether they're at my place or yours. I take them for potty breaks, longer walks, and plenty of playtime to keep them happy and never bored.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, the dog always gets my full attention. I'll make sure they feel safe and comfortable, keep them entertained with playtime, and work on training. I love watching them go from not knowing a command to nailing a solid sit, heel, or place. Of course I'll handle all the basics too, feeding exactly how you tell me, potty breaks on schedule, and making sure they're never stressed or bored. Whether it's at my place or yours, I'll treat your dog like my own and give them the attention they need.

A typical day

I dont have a backyard, but your dog will be stimulated mentally one way or another. I love teaching them new things to make them into better dogs.
