Pet care experience

Caring for Your Pets Like Family

I've always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and keep their dogs company while they're away. I also have a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I'll care for your dog as if they were my own by providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while following your pet's routine and any special instructions you provide.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or taking them on walks, I'll treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. I believe in keeping pet parents updated with messages and photos so you always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for.

Darby is a wonderful dog-sitter! We have a Lab mixed with a Boxer and then a Shih Tzu mixed with a Maltese. She took care of our furbabies for a week, and it wasn’t any regular week, it was the week of 4th of July. Anybody with dogs knows how terrible that week is. But she cared for our dogs as if they were her own, even going as far as letting them sleep with her when they wouldn’t calm down. She was very attentive to our dogs the entire time, making sure they were fed properly, walked, and played with. And they’re not an easy task, they’re pretty spoiled! Overall, 100% would recommend her as a dog sitter, we trust her completely!

Darby has taken care of my pets on various occasions when I have gone on vacation. She follows instructions clearly and I have never had a problem. If she has questions, she texts me promptly. She also has pets of her own which gives me a sense of security that she knows what she is doing. Great pet sitter!

I make time every day to care for animals and will ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I'll always communicate with you throughout the visit so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

Before caring for your pet, I'd love to know about their daily routine, energy level, personality, and any medical needs or special instructions. Please let me know if they have any allergies, medications, fears, or behaviors I should be aware of. The more I know, the better I can provide a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for your furry family member.
