Pet care experience

🐾❤️Pet Companion!❤️🐾

Hi! I'm Dee and I have been taking care of fur babies for years, including my own. I have an established family owned business of over 20 years and all of my original pet clients have actually come from my cleaning service. Over the years I have taken care of or come in contact with so many different pets so I'm comfortable with all breeds of dogs and cats. I have also cared for the extra shy and timid to the super hyper...all personalities welcomed! I'm completely comfortable with administering any medications or vitamins while they're in my care as well. I will love your pet as if they are my own. If scheduled ahead, I can also provide transportation to your pets appointments when you can't be there. Please take a few extra minutes and check out some more cute client pics on my Facebook page, Paw Prints SC.

This was our first pet sitting booking with Dara. Our dog enjoyed her stay with Dara and there lots of other dogs for her to play with. Dara sent pics and updates too. Will definitely book with her again for pet sitting services.

Dara did a great job with Roxy!!! She gave me updates on her allergies and she spoke with me and didn’t just try to give her medicine. I received a happy dog back and Dara did a great job!!!

I have used Dara multiple times and she has always been great. My girls love when she drops in for a visit or an overnight stay at her house while I'm away. My dogs are in good hands.

Dara is an excellent caretaker of dogs. Her yards are very well fenced and secure. She kept us informed daily on the wellbeing of our dog. Talking with her when we picked our dog up, it was obvious that she kept a close watch on her and knew her behavior well. Definitely recommend Dara without any hesitation!

Dara was the absolute best for my two girls! Our Sunshine has separation anxiety and every picture we received from Dara, our Sunny girl looked to be enjoying every minute of her stay! She was super awesome with our no limit soldier Scout as well. She kept our babies for 5 days and they were wore slam out from their fun stay. You can 100% tell Dara has a heart for animals. Our go-to from now on!!!!

Pets

A typical day

We typically hang out around the house and go out to play in the yard with their favorite toys while boarding. During walks we like to explore different paths within their neighborhood.

Cats

16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
No females in heat
Dara can host up to 6 pets per night
I have no breed preference but would like to know what makes your baby happy or anxious. I prefer to know if they have any allergies (especially since I'm known to bring treats!) or fears.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
