ISO Wags, Walks, Purrs, and Cuddles

We are a creature loving family and would love to play and cuddle with your fur baby. We love walks, hikes all outdoor adventures and playing fetch in our large fenced yard. We even like to have our feet licked...well, sort of, haha! My husband and I have experience with newborn & feral cats, rescue dogs, puppies and senior dogs. I have also cared for pets with illnesses that require extra attention. I am open to loving on any animals. I am a stay at home mom to a three year old and my husband is an actor...so there is always someone home. I am very honest, loving and dependable. Our daughter loves animals and she has been around quite a few family pets since birth. She is very respectful and gentle, but is ALWAYS monitored closely for her and the animal's safety. Recently our family pup (Alaskan malamute-American wolf mix) went on to run free with our yellow lab. We haven't had the heart to bring home a furever friend since, but feel we are ready to begin playing again. At the moment we live only with our kitty, 2 fish and 3 snails. We would love an opportunity to hang with your fur babes and will keep you connected whilst apart.

Dara was great. She bonded with my little buddy quickly — he was immediately comfortable and drawn to her. Very courteous and constant updates. Absolutely trust her. I look forward to using Dara again!

We have used Dara and Mark on many occasions, and they are simply the best!!! We know our dog is in good hands with them and their cute little daughter who loves all over our dog! I cannot recommend them enough! (Although, don't book them when we go out of town, because I don't want to have to use anyone else!)

My puppy had a great time staying with Dara and her lovely family! I loved receiving pictures and updates daily and felt really comfortable with the entire experience. I would definitely (and will) ask Dara to take care of him again!

Dara is the best! Hawkeye loves it over there. I always feel that Hawkeye is safe and well-loved when he is with Dara and her family.

Dara and her family cared for our puppy for an entire week while we went on vacation. He had a great time staying at their lovely house with a fenced in backyard and went on daily walks. I appreciated Dara's daily updates and caring nature. I never once doubted that our pup was in great hands and having a good time. We will definitely use them again!

Because we have a child and kitty, we would appreciate knowing if your pup is house-broken and/or has any aggressive tendencies.
