Availability
Watching your dog(s) will be my full-time job, so I will make sure that they get plenty of play time & exercise in our large backyard and give them the attention that they deserve. They will also have a very comfortable place to sleep/rest inside whenever that is needed.

About Darin B.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced yard, so there is a lot of room for the dogs to run around and play. The gates are always shut (and locked), so they will be safe. Downstairs we have a nice big sectional couch that the dogs can sleep on or they can sleep on a thick rug that our dog likes and we also have multiple dog beds as well just to give them plenty of choices.

Information Darin B. would like to know about your pet
1. Special medication instructions? 2. Special feeding instructions? 3. How is your dog with other dogs? 4. How is your dog with people, kids specifically?
A typical day
I will first let the dogs out in the morning including mine, Dexter, to go to the bathroom and then I will feed them. I will take my kids to school, which is just down the street, and I will then hang out with them for an hour or so. Then I will take the dogs outside (weather permitting) and play with them in our large backyard to make sute that they get a lot of exercise. We will come back inside and I will stay with them downstairs until I leave to pick up my daughters from school. My daughters will come home and take the dogs outside again to give them more exercise because they love animals as much as I do. They will come back inside and the dogs will get comfortable and nap and we will hang out until it's dinner time followed by more hang time downstairs. I will take the dogs outsife to go to the bathroom before it's bedtime. I will take the dogs out every few hours throughout the day or as needed to go to the bathroom. I will make sure all of the dogs are happy/comfortable with their spots for the night.

Pet care experience
I had our first baby, Dexter, from when he was a little puppy to when he was more than 14 years old, so I have experience with the needs of a senior dog as well as a dog of any age. My love of animals is unmatched, so I would be honored to watch your dog(s) and will treat him/her as if they are a part of our family like our pup, Dexter. It's not just me that will give your dog(s) the love and attention that they deserve as my wife and 2 children who are in elementary school are a big part of the process. My kids absolutely adore watching the pups and playing and cuddling with them. We have a lot of fun with them.
Reviews
Swanson has been staying with Darin for about 2 years now. We can tell by how tired and calm Swanson is when he comes home that he's well loved with Darin. Darin is a great communicator, and really a great dog person. He really meets the needs of each dog individually and it really shows.
Wonderful stay as always.
Absolutely amazing! Having Darin watch my boys put my heart at ease as I knew they were in great hands. Communication was easy and great!
Darin took amazing care of our pup! This was our first sitter experience outside friends and family and it couldn't have gone better- he always responded quickly to messages, provided great updates throughout our booking, and our pup came home happy and tired after a ton of fun and attention from Darin + family. We look forward to booking with Darin again in the future!
