Darius was very thorough. Constantly kept me updated with photos and videos. Took some of the best photos I’ve seen of my dog. Very professional. I didn’t worry much at all. Definitely appreciative of his time and care!

Fantastic experience with Darius and we plan on having him return for our next two trips out of town. He went above and beyond to put our minds at ease and our pets really bonded with him. I won't hesitate to trust him again and welcome him back.

Darius was a god sent. I was visiting Houston from Dallas with my husband and puppy. I stayed at a dog friendly hotel but even going for breakfast made my puppy very anxious alone in the room we decided to use over for the first time and I urgently contacted Darius. He was very prompt to respond and accommodated everything. He was very vigilant for for example I feed my dog fresh food, which I forgot to tell him, but he had already put the food in the fridge. He has a very sweet and loving puppy, and I could visibly see mylo happy. If I ever returned to Houston, Darius is my guy. Milo has never been around strangers, but he was extremely comfortable with Darius. He also sent updates every so often and was prompted to answer anything I asked. I don’t think twice.
