Professional animal lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Darcy and I have not only had dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, turtles, fish etc. as pets throughout my life, but I also work with wildlife for a living. I have worked hands on with all sorts of animals at 2 different wildlife rehabilitation centers, 3 AZA accredited zoos, and a nature center. In both my home neighborhood in New Jersey and while working in Montana I walked dogs and pet-sat regularly for neighbors, and would love to do so again in my newer place of residence here! I have experience giving oral medications to both dogs and cats, as well as some IV experience as I have had some elderly animals in my life that needed this type of special attention. I am happy to provide care to more than dogs and cats if you have that need and I will love them all, and ensure that they receive the best care humanly possible:)

Darcy was incredible sitter—communicative, thoughtful, and reliable. She provided regular updates during her stay at our place and we can home to a happy and well loved dog. I highly recommend Darcy as a sitter!

Darcy was amazing! Took such good care of our pups and cat while we were away. She so clearly cares for animals and I know treated them like they were her own for the 3 days she was here. 10/10 would recommend!

Absolutely remarkable service. She is the best of the best. We went out of town on our belated honeymoon. And Darcy updated us on our sweet pups. She is by far the upmost professional, and loving person. If I could give her 30 stars I would!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pets are your family and I will always treat them as such, which means I will ensure your animals are as safe and loved as possible in my care.

Information Darcy B. would like to know about your pet

I would need to know the feeding schedule, medicine schedule, and whatever quirks your animals might have. If there are problem areas in training that you have been working on with your dog, I’d love to know that as well so I can make sure I don’t accidentally let undesirable behaviors slide just because I’m the babysitter!

A typical day

If your dog loves to walk then we will walk as FAR as they want! If your dog likes to play then we can play all day. If your dog prefers to sit on the couch and get petted all day then I will certainly do that after we make sure they have at least a bit of a walk to ensure daily enrichment! I love City Park and Audubon Park for long walks and usually go to Wisner Dog Park when my own dog needs to get more energy out!
