Patient, attentive, compassionate
Pet care experience
Recently “retired” veterinary technician of 12 years, who is also a life long pet owner. Yes, I have had pets in my life, my WHOLE life, so working in the industry was a no brainer. However, I retired from the veterinary field last year, but will always love working and being with animals. I have worked as a Rover sitter in both Boston and NYC and LOVED it. Now I’m back, and ready to take care of all the best pets of CT ☺️ I am looking forward to make great bonds with your furbaby very soon. Wags and kisses. Thanks!
Reviews
Thanks so much for taking good care of our kitties again!
Dara took care of our two cats while we were out of town for two weeks. Her communication was great and she sent us lots of pictures as well. We will definitely be using her again, thanks Dara!
Dara is a fantastic sitter! She helped out on super short notice and was kind, timely, and professional throughout. She took great care of our kitty while we were away. Would 100% book again and would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!
Dara took great care of my skittish kitty and sent me updates throughout the weekend. Thanks Dara - I came home to a happy kitty :)

Safety, trust & environment
I can offer some day boarding, overnight stays in my home on a case by case basis. However, my current apartment does have some space limitations, while also having 2 pets of my own. My pets are use to being around other animals from previous boarding stays, but adequate space is to ensure safety and separation when needed. This will change once I am able to expand my space, which will be soon. I am available for evening dog walks/pet sitting after 4pm during the week, and anytime on weekends. I am comfortable with providing care in your home, which I have done plenty of over the years. I follow instructions as provided, and give medications if needed. I will always leave your house the way I entered it, with care and respect. If you are going to be away for a while, I can water plants, bring in mail/packages, and take out trash if needed. ☺️

Information Dara Raynah J. would like to know about your pet
All breeds accepted. Would like to know if a dog has any medical requirements. Does your dog suffer from any behavioral challenges, such as anxiety (separation, thunderstorms, nervous pee'er, etc.) Is your dog, dog reactive? Does your dog tolerate cats?
A typical day
The best part about dogs, is the ability to get outside and explore. Long walks, and play time is always fun. But for those dogs, who are not to keen about outdoor activities, there's plenty to do indoors. I also love to drive, anywhere, no matter how far. My dog also loves going anywhere in the car, so if your dog is a fan of having their head out the window, and having their ears flapping in the wind….we can do that too.
