We are so pleased to have found Daran and his wife. This was our first time leaving our dog Missy and it was such a great choice all around to have picked Daran and his wife. We would recommend Daran to anyone that truly cares about their pet! They truly love animals and they take very well care of each and every one of the pets they bring into their home! We made a great and will be back time and time again. Daran and his wife are a very special couple! 😊

Daran was great. His home, yard and open areas were a perfect fit for Brody. He took care of Brody as if he was part of his family. Brody is a very active puppy in constant motion. He was taken on walks, swimming in the pond and lots of ball playing. He loved his 2 weeks of time with Daran and was vey happy when picked up. Daran sent us pictures everyday which showed all the wonderful things he did with Brody. Highly recommend Daran!

Daran was awesome. He sent us pictures and videos. It was very clear the boys were comfortable with him. We knew they would be fine because we had already done a meet and greet but the pictures and videos made us more at ease. I would (and have) recommmend Daran to all my friends.

Daran made twice daily visits for my senior dog, who needed help getting up and out. He was reliable, friendly, and very good with my dog - who got so excited when Daran arrived! Would definitely hire him again.

Daran sent pictures and videos while the pups were in his care. He took them on walks & provided them with lots of exercise.

Took great care of my Riley! Sent me photos the whole time, took her on lots of walks, runs in the yard, and lots of cuddles with her! He was very great in handling her dog reactivity as well! Will definitely be booking with him again! Thank you so much!!

Schedule

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large 4ft fenced in grass yard and a large basement to allow for off leash freedom to play regardless of weather. Over the back fence we have active cranberry bogs with loads of open space and smells perfect for long walks. I am a fast walker and happy to cover 3-5 miles on a walk. Any fur-babies that need to stay overnight will be looked after like they are my own. I’ll send lots of pictures and make sure your pet is comfortable with as much attention as it needs.

A typical day

I have a large cranberry bog area out the back of where I live with lots of smells.Other dogs occasionally walk there too. It can be a small loop of a mile or and larger 4-5mile depending on what is needed or requested.Its mainly sand under foot and no sharp objects which is ideal for all breeds. I love hiking and walking also it’s nice to be with doggo/s. As a cool down we can chill or run around some more in our fenced yard and maybe throw a ball or play tug the rope toy or lay in the sun .

Daran can host up to 3 pets per night
Any special requirements pets have is always worth noting to give them the best possible stay and experience .. some dogs can be ear sensitive (not liking ears to be touched) which I’ve looked after before or just needing a tablet with food after a certain time of day..some dogs have lumps or cysts or both these can’t be help and are natural I did have a dog that had a cyst on top of a lump that erupted which I was able to keep clean, and communicate with the vet on what it was (cyst) and best treatment until to stop infections which we did right. I’m not a vet but I’ve worked on sheep farms in uk in the middle of fields in the middle of nowhere in rain sideways and treated lambs and sheep for foot problems and infections.
