Highlights
Pet care experience
The Puppy Auntie
I grew up with golden retrievers, have 3 family dogs, and currently live with my roommates 4 dogs. I do a lot of pet sitting for family and friends, and I know how to walk with dogs that are dog aggressive as well as dogs that are overly friendly. I was a volunteer helper in HVOC puppy and Beginner One classes for several years and participated in classes with our family dog. I have done a lot of cat sitting and know when a cat wants attention and wants to be left alone. I have administered medication to friendly cats and dogs, but I am not comfortable giving medication to reactive animals.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I love to spend time with your animals. I am willing to go for walks up to 2 miles long, and will happily put on a podcast and play games with them until they are ready to be done. I also love to just cuddle and relax with dogs. I like to have a list of all the commands the dogs know, as well as any allergies, triggers, ect.
Ratings and reviews
Darian is a wonderful pet, and child, sitter. She has watched my fur babies for a decade, and I never hade had anything but good experiences with her. I am a very picky dog mama. I left Darian with very old, chronically ill dogs on many medications, and she is so loving and attentive. She treats them like they are hers. One of my old guys started to like to walk very late at night, when Darian was watching him she would take him on moonlit walks. Every time my dogs saw her they would get very excited, as they always knew she treated them with love and respect. I have moved out of the area but have been considering flying her up to take care of my new dog while I take a trip. That’s how great I know she is.
Dariann is trustworthy, responsive, dependable, and great with dogs! She really puts in her all while spending time with my dog. My dog loves playing ball, and she'll play with her until she completely tires out. Dariann will make sure your furry friend gets enough exercise while taking walks. She is warm and friendly and loves when she can bring a pet joy.
Dariann has watched many of our family dogs through the years. She’s very personable, attentive, and cares deeply about the animals she has in her care. She was the only person outside the family that our elderly dachshund ever liked! (And if you’ve owned a dachshund, you know that’s a big deal). Knowing she has so much experience with pet care and how committed she is, I would definitely trust her with any of my pets.
I trust Darian with all of our pets when we go out of town. We have 3 dogs, 4 cockatiels, and fish. Our dogs have complicated meal plans but she is always willing to do it. She makes sure to see if there are any changes she needs to be aware of. She spends time to play with them as well. She also feeds our birds and makes sure their water is full and clean. We have fish both outside and inside as well that need to be fed once a day. Additionally she takes care of our houseplants and the outdoor patio plants by watering them as needed. She is a trustworthy and reliable person for taking care of our home and pets. I definitely recommend her to others.
