Availability
I’m currently balancing a part-time job and my own business, so my schedule can vary week to week. I’ll always be clear about my availability in advance and do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Reliability and communication are really important to me, and I make sure each pet I care for gets the time and attention they deserve.

About Darla R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I provide care in your home so your pet can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment. I always follow your instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to any routines or quirks that help your pet feel secure. I take extra care to keep doors and gates locked, make sure water bowls stay full, and give plenty of love and attention while you’re away. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for until you’re back home.
Information Darla R. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know your pet’s daily routine, personality, and any special needs or quirks. Please share details about feeding times, medications, triggers, or anxieties, as well as how they do around other dogs, people, and on walks. The more I know about what makes your pet comfortable and happy, the better I can care for them like one of my own.
A typical day
A typical day includes plenty of walks, playtime, and affection. I love getting dogs outside for fresh air—whether it’s a neighborhood stroll or a trip to the park. For more relaxed pups, we’ll enjoy cuddle time, gentle attention, and companionship. I always tailor activities to each pet’s age, energy level, and personality so they feel happy, safe, and loved.

Pet care experience
I’ve worked at a couple of veterinary clinics as a receptionist and also helped with kennel care, which gave me valuable experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable reading dog behavior, keeping them calm in new environments, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I understand how important it is to follow routines, give attention to detail, and treat every pet with patience and love. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels right at home.
Reviews
Darla has been passionate about animals her entire life. She loves all animals, but especially cats and dogs. Darla grew up caring for cats and dogs and as an adult worked for a humane society where she learned additional skills in care giving for pets. In her spare time, she loves exercising her pitty by hiking and camping. Darla loves animals as if they were her children. I would 100% recommend Darla as a pet care giver as well as trust her with my own dog.
