Information Darlena D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or preferences. I want to make sure that you know your dog will be safe with me.

A typical day

I love to play with your dog with toys and we can walk around my neighborhood so he/she can get aquatinted with the sights and sounds around where I live. If your dog is reactive to other dogs or people, for my safety and the safety of your dog, we will stay close by my yard for potty breaks. Same if I am at your home, since I will be unfamiliar with the area, unless, of course, you have a fenced in yard.

Pet care experience

I will be actively engaged with your pet. I grew up on a farm and have taken care of all animals, but dogs are my first love! ❤️ Rover doesn't always make sense when booking, so if you have a question please contact me. 😊🐾 For every booking, I donate a bag of dog food to SUVAS!

Darlena is wonderful! Our pug is needy and she takes great care of him. We are a repeated and loyal customer of hers.

Darlena is the only dog sitter for us! She did a wonderful job this trip with our senior and young pup. We always know they’re safe, happy, and tuckered out! Thank you! 🩷🐾

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
