Quirky dogs & cats are my specialty
Pet care experience
I absolutely love all animals - big or small! I have extensive experience with nervous/anxious/reactive dogs and knowledge on advocating for their space, as my own pup falls into this category (3 year old fear reactive Aussie). 15+ years experience looking after cats and dogs of all temperaments. I have owned my own animals as well as looked after others, and can provide a safe, comfortable and loving atmosphere! I will also look after other critters (rabbits, horses, fish, etc.)!
Reviews
Darcie R. cancelled a booking 16 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Our pets were left in very good care when we left them with Darcie.
Darcie was amazing with our pets and kept our house nice and tidy! Overall extremely happy - we will definitely be asking her to come back again!
Darcie was great! We felt confident leaving our nervous dog with her as she has experience with reactivity which was a huge relief for us, knowing our dog would be in good hands! Great communication and sent updates which was much appreciated. Will definitely book again! Thank you, Darcie!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always ensure complete safety when caring for your pets. I will use a leash when walking/hiking your dogs to ensure security, and can crate them when left alone, if you so choose.
Information Darcie R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog or cat has any specific triggers or anxieties (e.g. nervous around new people, dogs, loud sounds, or bikes etc.)
A typical day
Hikes, play time at the park, fetch, and walks around the neighbourhood are all activities that I will do with your pet - depending on what they love to do!
Services
Darcie can watch in your home
Availability
I currently work from home full time, which allows me flexibility to provide walks and bathroom breaks for pets throughout the workday. I can also work from anywhere with wifi, so this allows me the opportunity to bring my laptop to your home and keep your fur babies company while you are away! I am very active and love to go for long walks and hikes, and would be happy to bring your pets along! I also have weekends off, and have flexibility to stay with your pets throughout the day/evening. I generally do not bring my own dog as he does not get along with all pets.
