We will treat your pup like our own

We are excited to connect with all of you. We have looked after many doggies. Now, we are taking 2 at a time depending on each individual doggies personality. We, of course, won’t always be booked with two, but if it works, it works. We are people who will get back to you right away and communicate honestly always. We lost our dog in Sept 2021 and watching others dogs allows us the cuddles and love that we truly miss so much. If we come to you for walk or just a visit, we do not mind you having a camera in your home. We actually advocate for it. Also, I (Darby) , do most walks and visits. Always on the first visit, for safety reasons I bring Craig ( my Beau) with me to make sure all is good. If possible, please make sure all instructions are clear and instead of lots of details where everything is- it seems to be much easier to put everything out on kitchen counter. 😉😋

Dog Walking • May 14, 2026

Darby was fantastic with our Senor Nakata. He’s a Shiba Inu so not the easiest dog in the first place, but he’s an older fellow and needs some patience and compassion. Darby excelled on all counts! Will definitely book her again!!

Dog Walking • Feb 19, 2026

Absolutely amazing! Darby is so nice and pleasant to talk to. And she treats my two doggos even better than I imagined. I love the amount of communication about how the walks went and how the dogs are behaving while I'm out and about. My two rascals absolutely love her. As a first time user of the app I was concerned about trying this out but I have no regrets and I recommend it to others now. I can relax knowing that Darby is taking care of the kiddos.

Doggy Day Care • Nov 19, 2023

Darby was great with our Shabu! She gave her a lot of love and attention. We constantly got updates so we were very confident that Shabu was having a good time. Would hire her again, for sure.

Doggy Day Care • Oct 26, 2023

This was my first time dropping my dog off at someone else’s house and I was so nervous. Marsy can be very nervous with new people and Darby was soooo welcoming and patient. Within 5 min after I left, I got a picture of my dog sitting right next to her. The rest of the day was full of lot of cute pics and sweet updates. Darby is the best and Marsy can’t wait for her next visit! If I could give 10 stars, I would. So thankful we found Darby!

Darby was so great about our last minute request to watch Russell. Her kind energy immediately made our worries go away. We received updates during our stay and we would definitely book with Darby again!!

Safety, trust & environment

We will treat your doggie like our own. Whatever their needs are we provide. We have a Client, who we adore , and whenever they bring over their Doggie Doo they come with their very large couch pillows. The reason for this is because their Doggie has back problems, so our whole living room is a slumber party at all times. We have built a solid customer base, however, doggies get older, etc… So there is always room for more love. At this point, we don’t like to be without a baby. Wink

A typical day

We will take many walks! We have a dog walk in our building, as well as lots of grassy areas around our complex. There is also a dog park up the street. A small car drive is necessary. We have Charlie girl who loves to be chased and loves to play hide and go seek. And then there’s Kobe who only likes to play and chew when we’re on the floor with him. Let’s talk about Bella, who loves for us to throw the tennis ball down the hall…
