I’m a stay-at-home mom/small business owner with a very flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. Daily walks, playtime, and cuddles can easily fit into my routine. I’m available weekdays and weekends, and I’ll make sure your dog gets the attention and care they deserve while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have a fenced good sized yard where pups can play and a dog to keep them company. I can also crate your dog if preferred. Since I have a young child, I will take on dogs who are good with kids, making for a loving, social, and family-style environment. Will typically take on dog aged 3 and up with the exception of your dog is very relaxed. Also good with other dogs and respect my older dogs boundaries of being cared for in my home. Within the past year we lost my first baby my black lab, my chocolate lab would love the company here and there of another dog that matches her lazy chill vibe to have around for overnights.

Information Darien L. would like to know about your pet

I would need to know your dogs temperament and if they are good with children. I am selective with who I will take on - must be somewhat mellow and respect my senior dogs boundaries and be okay with a young baby around.

A typical day

Every morning we wake up and feed and let our doggie outside, relax for a little while and then hit the road for a walk - sometimes around the neighbourhood or a bike path. Enjoy the backyard throughout the rest of the day. After dinner we will usually head out for another walk before bed.

Loving Mom & Dog Mom

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for over 13 years. I grew up with pets, volunteered walking dogs at the Humane Society, and neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets. With my own dog of 13 years, I’ve experienced the full journey from puppyhood to senior care, giving me the skills to handle all life stages with patience and compassion.

Couldn’t be more grateful for the care Darien and her family has given to our dog. From the moment we left, we felt reassured knowing he was safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. It was obvious through the updates and photos that he was happy, relaxed, and getting lots of attention and affection. The regular photo updates truly helped put us at ease and made being away from him so much easier. We really appreciated the kindness, communication, and level of care throughout the stay. We were so pleased with the experience that we’ve already rebooked for next month. Highly recommended!

Darien was so great in caring for Lily! She is so sweet and could tell she would make Lily feel right at home. She sent us such good photos and updates while we were away, which were so nice! We would definitely book with her again! 💗

Darien did a great job communicating before our dog's arrival and sent lots of updates/pictures during the stay. Our dog seemed to have a great time and we would gladly have our dog stay with Darien again.
