ABOUT ME
ABOUT ME
My Name is Dionna and I have LOVED all animals my ENTIRE LIFE. I have an affinity for dogs especially (GOD spelled backwards). I have never been without a dog. I started off the early age of five caring for our family Scottish Terrier, Scottie, as a puppy until he was 14 years old. Then, I fell in love with Dachshunds; like they say "you can't just have one," so at one time, I had three males (Rusty, Rex & Riley) for almost 10 years. To date, I've rescued seven (my eldest, Missy, who I was gifted at the age of 11 weeks old lived a full and MUCH LOVED life for 18 years old). My current, mini-Doxie, Riley (featured on my Home page), is an easy-going little guy who loves everyone, is placid and docile. He's famous for his kisses, if you don't mind having your face licked. We enjoy a variety of activities including long walks (sometimes 6-8 miles), hiking, playing tug and fetching, which is an unusual and unique interest for the breed. My one and only cat was an orange tabby named Magic, but I haven't had any more kitties since him as he was a one-of-a-kind feline who thought he was a dog! LOL!
I've been a Reiki Master (attuned '98) and offer healing energy to any fur-baby for calming energy is there's a storm approaching, a minor injury and the like. I also use alternative medicine such as homeopathy, herbology, etc., as needed.
I hope you'll reach out to me to care for your beloved four-legged(s) and/or winged feathered friends (sorry, no reptiles, please). I very much look forward to hearing from you. Many blessings, Dionna

"When I met Dionna, I immediately knew she was a natural with animals as well as a skilled caregiver and true professional. This became even more apparent when Dionna took care of our 3 dogs and 1 cat while we were away for two weeks. Throughout our trip, Dionna kept in contact and sent us stories and adorable photos and videos of our animals. This naturally put us at ease knowing that our animal family was happy and well cared for. In the weeks leading up to the trip, communication was clear, and it was obvious that Dionna was interested in the details regarding our pets so that she could give them what they needed. Due to her skill and compassion, we never once worried while we were away. That peace of mind is so very valuable when far away on vacation! We came home to a spotless house and VERY happy animals. In fact, Dionna worked so well with our one year old dog, that she was calmer and more well behaved than when we left. That's dedication! I will recommend Dionna to everyone in the area and am so very glad that we found her and look forward to using her services again. Dionna and Divine Doggie Daycare are a true gem!"

"Dionna took loving care of our dog and our two cats and put our minds at ease while we were away. Dionna was thoughtful and sent us pictures of all the pets a few times, which was so comforting. Most of the time, with other pet care options we don't even get regular texts saying everything is ok, and you always have that little worry that something might have happened, but with Dionna I knew all along that everyone was well, happy and affectionately cared for. Plus, when we came home, the plants had been watered and the snow was cleared from the deck, which was above and beyond what we expected. We're very satisfied and will definitely be using Divine Doggie Day Care again!"

Thank you so much for helping us out at the last minute! We appreciated the photo updates, Tyson looked very happy! Thank you, too, for going above and beyond with leaving our house clean, washing the linen and making the bed.

We have left our five fur children in the care of Dionna on multiple occasions and for over a week, at times, and we never have the slightest worry about them. Dionna is extremely professional and we trust her like she was part of our family. We have animals that are special, to say the least, and she has a fantastic connection with each of them. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs to know their animals are in capable, safe and loving hands while they’re in her care.

Dionna took care of our two cats and high-maintenance dog for a few days around Christmas. At her wise suggestion, she also came for two pre-holiday two-hour sessions so they could all get to know each other a bit. Dionna was very professional, especially in her strategy for dealing with our dog Amber, who has been known to be suspicious of strangers and exhibit aggressive behaviors to maintain her distance.
Dionna wisely hung back and let Amber come to her, mostly reading her signals well to give Amber the space she wanted. That was the hard
part. For the rest -- taking care of the house, feeding, walking, cleaning up after all the critters -- Dionna did great. I couldn't ask for more. I highly recommend her services.

Dionna has been caring for my 2 cats and 3 dogs roughly once a month since April 2019, and she is WONDERFUL. My dogs are all XL and can be a handful; she's got them wrapped around her treat-filled fingers! And my cats (who are a little spooky) treat her like a member of the family! I love that I get daily updates and photos, and I know I can trust my house and the health and happiness of my herd with Dionna when I'm gone. It makes vacations and travel for work so much easier. She is very communicative via various ways (text/email/phone) and she keeps the house spotless. I thoroughly recommend Dionna!
