“Theresa is an outstanding dog sitter. The dogs love her so much, and she is wonderful interacting with them. She even tidied up the main floor of our house, which is above and beyond. She will definitely be my future number one choice.”

“Niara is amazing with my dog (100 lb lab mix) and has been a repeat booking for long weekends when I’m out of town. Niara always sends photos and videos of my dog while I’m gone and makes me feel very secure that my dog is in good hands. Can’t recommend her services enough!!”


“Lawrence took great care of our dog and house while we were away— would definitely recommend him! Our dog is often anxious around new people but she liked him pretty much immediately.”


“Amber took great care of my senior cat. He takes medicine 3 times a day and she was ON it. I came home to a calm, happy kitty. She communicated, sent pictures, and was just a great care provider!”


“Zoe was awesome. 10/10 definitely would recommend. She sent updates on my pup and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. She stayed at my house with Beau and left my home exactly as she found it. I can't say enough great things. Beau has found a new best friend and can't wait til she comes and stays with him again!”


“Taylor was very loving towards my girls and communicated very well while she stayed with my girls! 3 dogs can be overwhelming but she embraced it and I came home to happy girls after my trip!”


“Lark stayed for a week at our home and was so caring of our furry baby Kevin. Kevin's not always predictable and they made good friends with loving belly rubs, etc. She shared pictured throughout the week. We will definitely be calling her back to see if she can stay again when we plan our next trip! Thank you so very much!”


“Madison did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs. She even went the extra mile and took one to the vet as soon as she could when he got sick. House was left in great shape and she cleaned up very well. Wouldn't hesitate to ask her to watch our dogs again.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I can play with them, pick up after them, bathe them and make sure they’re happy and well fed. And I can take the dog on short or long walks and make sure they’re happy and safe. Also for house sitting I’ll make sure the house is clean and any messes the dog makes is cleaned up as well I’m a student at an online university, but I am taking a break from perusing my BS in forensic accounting. So I have plenty of time to watch your pets. I have two dogs that I take care of with my family. And they are well cared for and I play with them throughout the day and feed them when they need to be fed.

“So Diane is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our elderly dog (Puddles) ended up having some medical issues while Diane was taking care of her, and Diane did an outstanding job taking care of our Puddles during this time. Puddles is doing fine and we truly appreciate Diane keeping Puddles. We highly recommend Diane taking care of your pets. She is someone you can trust! Thanks again.”


“Jordan was wonderful! Great communication before and during her care for our dog and cat. She regularly sent us pics and let us know how our anxious ones were doing while we were away. I definitely would recommend her and will book with her again.”
