Pet care experience

I have cared for many creatures in my life from fish, cats, dogs, rodents, and reptiles. I have taken care of many senior animals and have had to administer medications. I have also fostered a few dogs in the past and had them for a month at a time. Many friends have asked me to go over to their house and check in with their animals as well. I also do animal spirit readings.

One of the most wonderful people that you’ll ever meet is Darby!!! She has a heart of gold and loves all critters and beings! She is super trustworthy and dependable and has an impeccable work ethic!! If I lived closer, you bet I’d ask her to help with my pups!!!

Darby was awesome! She was friendly and knowledgeable about the dogs. She listened to my instructions on how to handle them. She had a yard and they had fluffy beds to lay on. And Darby's dog is a good ambassador and that helps my dogs ease into a new surrounding. Thanks Darby!

Darby is a very responsible, gentle, and practical person. She has a true connection with all living creatures and goes above and beyond to make animals (and people!) feel happy and comfortable. Darby is a delight to work with and I highly recommend her!

My little dog, Prince, loves to go to the Condon dog park in Grass Valley. I have an old 4Runner w/lots of space for adventures! I do have stairs that lead into my fenced in yard and stairs that lead into my living portion of the building. There is access to the front yard with no stairs but animals would always have to be on a leash to get to that area .

Information Darby P. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog get along with other dogs? Does your dog have a desire to attack small creatures such as other household pets like lizards, etc.? Does your dog bite? Bark often? Is your dog potty trained?

A typical day

We could walk around my neighborhood, go to the dog park, or hike on the trail nearby ... and in the summertime when it’s nice, I do like to go to the river!

I own a day spa, salon and boutique which is located downtown Nevada City. I own my home & have a fenced in yard. I live & work in the building so I am onsite all the time. I also run an Airbnb from the building so I am here day and night. Drop off for pets can be easy & convenient because I’m right downtown across from the Post Office & have a driveway. I do have a bearded dragon, and a turtle as well on site.
