Safety, trust & environment

I love to cuddle with pups in my bed and take them on walks to sniff around campus! While my room is just the size of a bedroom, it has AC, big windows, and I am happy to take your dog outside as much as needed! I am confident in my ability to read and understand dog’s body language while encountering other people/pets. I have experience dog sitting for family friends as well as caring for pets after they have been injured and experience breaking up dog fights (family friend used to foster).

Information Dara P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there’s anything important to know and I’m more than happy to accommodate. I can care for an extra nervous or scared pup no problem :)

A typical day

Me and your pup will play, snuggle, and run around campus as much as they’d like! There are tons of fun stimuli for extroverted and curious pups on campus as well as relaxing spots to take the more shy doggies.

Pet care experience

I’ve always loved dogs and caring for pets since I was younger. I am at college right now, missing my dog so your pup will be very well loved :)

Dara did a great job taking care of my picky house panther while I was gone. She was communicative and kept him in great spirits until I returned. Highly recommend!

Dara was not only an amazing dog watcher for Honey, but a respectful and considerate guest in our home. She was the perfect dog sitter on top of a wonderful person, so can’t recommend her enough!

Dara did a great job taking care of my recent rescue dog, Beth! She was super loving and kind towards her and I could tell Beth felt comfortable and safe with her. She was very communicative which I really appreciated and sent cute pictures of Beth and updates while I was away. I was worried about leaving Beth but it turned out really well!
