Pet care experience

I will treat your dog like my own.

I will treat your dog like I treat mines, like family! Long walks, fun drop-ins, and a dog friendly environment for boarding. I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I rescued my boy West, a pit-terrier, in 2015 have been blessed to have him in my life ever since. I live in a spacious 2 bedroom house with a fenced in driveway and backyard. West is completely house-trained, so I even have his old wire-crate if needed. Rest assured that your dog will be loved, have a great time and is in safe hands when you choose me for any of the services I provide. There are a few parks near my location that I will take your dog for walks, I also am pretty good getting around NYC so exploring the city with your pet will be a breeze!

Darius is an amazing boarder! We had to leave our little-big guy for 5 nights while we went on vacation. He had the time of his life with Darius and West. They made him feel welcome and at home. In all the shared pictures and videos it seemed like our dog was on his own vacation! We would definitely book with him again and highly recommend his services.

He got my neurotic anxiety ridden boy dog who hates water to poop in the rain. Gold stars all around. Punctual, and the pups were happy :) thanks again Darius!

Darius is avid dog lover. He is patience and loves to be outdoors. I promise he will take care of your dog as if it was his own dog.

Darius is a wonderful candidate for a Rover dog sitter. As long as I've know Darius (4+ years) he has always loved dogs and puts his own dog first. He is always willing to play, pet, or just hang out with dogs big or small!

I highly recommend Darius! He is reliable, professional, punctual, trustworthy, and easy going. He will always send me walk updates, which is very comforting specially when I’m traveling. His schedule is flexible and convenient. He will do whatever is possible to accommodate your appointments. He takes outstanding care of my dog. Overall, his service is fantastic, which is why I don’t trust my dog with anyone else!
