Top rated Darby house sitters
“Moriah was responsive and communicative, and came to meet Colby briefly the night before. She was on time and sent pictures throughout the day with updates on Colby’s behavior and mood. I highly recommend Moriah if you need a dog sitter or walker in Jackson WY! She was wonderful.”
“Kara and Elizabeth helped us out with a last minute house sitting request! Very responsive and did great with our two large dogs and three cats. We would definitely rebook with them when we need a house sitter again.”
“Maureen was so awesome. Sent lots of pics and updates which kept our minds at ease. She was so good to our babies and also left our house totally spotless. We appreciate her so much!”
“Olivia was outstanding, my boys loved her instantly and she was so attentive to both of them. One is older and more frail the other a 2 yr old energy ball and she was great with both. She spent plenty of time with them and took them on long walks. I can’t say enough about how great the experience was for both my boys and myself!”
“Donalyn is fantastic, highly recommend! We booked her very last minute for “doggie daycare.” Donalyn was punctual, reliable and communicative. She took great care of our dog and even took him on a long hike, he was exhausted that night! We can’t thank her enough for accommodating us so last minute and being the best pup sitter.”
“Alexis and her husband were great. Our dog can be very anxious, and she warmed right up to both of them. She looked well taken care of and the house was left in pristine condition. Also sent pictures and gave a daily update to put us at ease. We would highly recommend them!”
About: I adore cats! I have an 11-year-old tabby who is full of personality! I have cared for cats all my life at home, for family, friends and neighbors. Many personal friends rely on me for this. Cats of all walks are drawn to me. I have experience with kittens, cats and senior felines. I also care for small dogs. I can administer medication to pets who need it including pills, eye drops, etc. I live in Victor. Drop-ins for cats once or per day work into my schedule easily. I work full-time remotely so am semi-flexible on times. I can visit your home to feed, pet, play with and clean up after your cats. I can also water plants, bring in the mail, take out the trash, and care for fish, gardens, etc. while you are out of town.
“Claire was wonderful with our 9-month puppy! She was extremely communicative with photos and was flexible when our start time was delayed. She left our house clean and with a tired but happy pup!”
“Carla was fantastic, probably the best sitter we've ever had. Had. She is responsible, loving with our dogs, aware of their needs, and timely. We would absolutely highly recommend her. So glad we found her!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all ages and sizes (Cocker Spaniels to Saint Bernards) raising most of them from puppies with my family. We almost always had 3-5 dogs at a time so I am very experienced with handling single or multiple dogs at a time. I am currently raising and training a 1.5 y/o Australian Shepherd who is a ball of loving energy! I adopted him at 2mo/old and know all about puppy training and now entering the world of teenage dog-hood. We work together caring for children and other pups as he loves anyone and everything! We are an extremely active duo - taking at least one big hike every week and numerous walks throughout the day/week. We like to bike ride together so if your pup likes hiking/running/biking/playing… we would LOVE to hang out:) I’m currently working around 8-5 M-Th so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup outside of these hours! This schedule changes throughout the summer so I may be available for walks/potty breaks during the day as well. Please message for my most updated schedule! Once summer ends, I will have even more time to care for your pup(s). I have a loving, playful pup to keep yours exercised and cared for during our stay/visit. I have a dog-proofed car so I’m able to take your furry pal on adventures all over the valley if needed. I’m experienced in crating and am more than happy to chat about specific needs your pup has.
“Heather was very accommodating with a last minute request for a dog sitter while I was out of town. I fully disclosed that my dog had attacked an unknown dog in a shared yard that she considers her own. The previous dog sitter was rattled and asked if I could find someone else to finish the sit while I was still out of town. It was already such a stressful experience. I was glad she saved the day.”
About: I have always grown up around dogs, and I love every single one that I meet! I am always willing to make new friends with any new doggo big or small that I meet! I currently am working online, which gives me the ability to be very flexible with time and Scheduling needs for your pup! In addition I have reliable transportation for all your drop ins and dog walk needs! I am good with communication, always have my cell phone on me and charged, and will be able to provide updates in a timely manner and can be reached any hour of the day without delay! Please let me know how to help you ! Available for pet care 24/7. Having grown up with pets my whole life I know how important it is to give animals lots of attention. The back yard of the apartment building I live in opens up to karns meadow. it’s a lovely and safe place to take dogs out to play.
“Anne was phenomenal. She took care of our 2 dogs and 3 horses while we were gone for a week. I had assured her that the horses would be low maintenance and that she'd just need to check waters. HAHAHA ! We had a horse end up with stitches a week or so before our trip and I was worried about infection. Turns out Anne used to work at a vet clinic. She reassured us she wasn't too worried about it and was happy to help with the extra care and feeding meds. Because of the distance we were from her (Ennis) she did ask about bringing her dog to stay. We did a quick meet and greet to make sure everyone got along and it was all greet. Cub seems like a well behaved good boy. Anne's communication during our trip was top notch and very positive. She never seemed bothered about us checking in and also provided us updates and pictures without us asking for them. We came home to a clean house, a clean yard (which was above and beyond) and a guest room. She had washed all her bedding and had made the bed as well. Our mail was on the table and the sink empty of any dirty dishes. She let us know when she was leaving and asked how we wanted our nightime chores done since we're arriving a day earlier than planned. I can't recommend her highly enough.”
“Claire was fantastic and we could not have asked for a better person to watch our Frankie. She was responsive and a great communicator, took great care of our house while we were on an overnight, and sent pictures and let us know how things went before she left. Oh, and she took wonderful care of our sweet girl and exercised her, too. Fantastic and we will look her up again when we need help. Side note: she's also a talented baker!”
About: I’ve been a part of taking care of my family dogs for my whole life. We’ve had a lab, two labradoodles, two cavalier King Charles’, and a pug so I am used to dogs of all sizes and attitudes. I have also worked with avalanche dogs in the winter time working on training for lifesaving techniques. I am currently looking to work as a dog walker between my seasonal jobs so I’m available seven days a week to work as people need it. I pay close attention to the dogs normal behaviors and moods and try to notice how they vary. Since dogs can’t talk, it’s really important to pay attention to their non-verbal behaviors to gauge how they are feeling.
About: I have been a dog owner myself. I had 10 great years with my cattle dog named Magenta. She was an explorer and adventurer by my side. I am a counselor, nature lover, and enjoy a healthy lifestyle and eating. I am also an artist, writer, and traveler. I work from home as a counselor, which allows me to pet sit part time and enjoy connecting with pets. I grew up in Montana and Wyoming, spent time in Spain, Costa Rica, Colorado, and more. I am grateful to be living close to the mountains. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies. I work from home and pet sit as well. I love animals and meeting new fur baby friends. I am often available during the week and weekends as well. Please note, the rates may not be accurate depending on your specific needs. Please inquire. I am in a small space, so really large dogs in my home is probably not the best. Small and older dogs are good for daycare. I can come to pet owners' homes for short visits or for longer visits.

“Leah was awesome! She stayed at my place while I did an overnight in the backcountry. I felt like my dog was in great hands and didn't worry at all.”
Jessica F.
“Jess is the best pet sitter I have had. I highly recommend. Most importantly, Jess is reliable and communicative; but can't leave out loving to my kitty. Most recently I was away when temperatures dropped and I was worried about kitty being outside at night. Jess made sure to text me that he was inside, cat door closed, and he was happy. Often receive pictures while I am away, and updates on his whereabouts (he is indoor/outdoor). She will spend sometime and love on my jonesing kitty and not just feed him and jet. You will be able to enjoy yourself while you are away - and not worry - because your pet is in great hands.”

Rollie J.
“Rollie is a caring and sensitive young man who has loved dogs since he was a small child, having grown up in a household where there were always been four legged friends as an integral part of the family. He is experienced in caring for furry friends having been responsible for feeding, walking, and otherwise interacting with our family dogs from an early age. I have witnessed his care and attention and responsiblity first hand. Rollie gravitates to dogs and relates with love and understanding. Rollie sought out dog care by being involved in a foster program this past summer in Jackson, Wyoming, providing a large, energetic fellow with loving attention and exercise until a permanent home was found. Aside from his lifelong experience with dogs, Rollie is a graduate of the UW Madison Business School and has worked in various positions in Real Estate finance. He is a smart, caring, capabile young man and I would recommend him for involvement in your program.”

Frances W.
“Frances is a loving and responsible pet caretaker. She is timely and attentive which is great when I’m leaving my dogs all day and they need to be exercised and go to the bathroom. She loves dogs and seems to be a dog whisperer. She can always tell how they’re doing and what they need and really cares to tend to those needs. 100% would recommend Frances as a dog sitter and walker.”
Breann B.
“Breann was great. Our dog can be a handful but she was incredible patient and kind. Overall wonderful person and a pleasure to work with”
Meredith P.
“Meredith & I were housemates, each with a dog. She is kind, caring, honest and responsible, and a very conscientious dog owner. Her dog is well trained/behaved and when taking care of my dog she applied the same calm, disciplined dog management techniques with her. It was comforting for me to have such a great, responsible live-in dog sitter. Puffin and I miss our walks with Magenta and Meredith. Tania E.”
