Highlights
Pet care experience
We love your pet like it was ours!
I live in a single family home with nice block fenced in yard. There is plenty of room for your furbaby to run and play and get exercise. Our yard is part grass and part stones. We do not have a pool so there is no danger with them falling in. We live in a very quiet neighborhood with lots of dog owners. Since we are both retired your pup will be with one of us at all times and get lots of hugs and kisses! ***Taking a weekend trip up to the high country, we are conveniently located off I-17 and Happy Valley. Drop off and pick up right on your way**** About this sitter: With a heavy heart I am informing you all that Dave passed away in July 2021. My son Sean, grandson Joey are still helping and loving our puppy guests that visit. After 8 years we have many repeat customers that knew Dave and how much he loved their dogs. As his health failed all our guests brought him so much joy and comfort. Nothing like the affection and love from a dog that brightens the spirit. Thank you all for letting your furbabies into our lives. We love them all. Unfortunately both of our Old English Sheepdogs have crossed over the Rainbow Bridge We did rescue our Benny in December of 2020 and he has been a wonderful addition to our family. In October 2022 I got a match to a pretty little girl that said she was part sheepdog. I went to the Petsmart adoption and met Stella Luna. She was almost a year old and fit into our crazy dog world perfectly. I call her my Miss Congeniality since she loves everyone. She's very pretty. I just wish she likes to be brushed. LOL About my yard Fenced in, 6 ft block. Half the yard is grass and the other is stones. We do not have a pool. Plenty of room to run and play!

Ratings and reviews
Darlene took great care of our Cav for over a week. I was nervous because he is so attached to my husband and me. He’s rarely left alone since we are both retired. But she took great care of him and sent us lots of pictures and updates. I will definitely call on her again. I highly recommend her!
Thanks for taking such great care of Nala! I love getting the photos throughout her stay with you and updates on how she is doing. Thanks!
Darlene was great with my dog Brady. He was well taken care of and she sent me regular updates. She was also flexible with my flight times which was much appreciated. We will definitely plan to see her again!
Great communication, sent pictures, took good care of our Golden and Aussie. She is well stocked with dog beds etc. and has good sized yard for our active dogs.
Thank you Darlene of taking care of Brody! We were kept informed by pictures throughout his stay.
Darlene took care of my dog for 21 days and kept me informed the entire time by sharing updates and pictures. Her communication gave me great peace of mind. When I picked my dog up, she was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciate the excellent care Darlene provided. Thank you so much!!

Schedule
I am retired so home all the time. My son works from home and my adult grandson also lives with us. Someone is always home so your pup will never be left alone. My son Sean and grandson Joey are very involved with the care of our puppy guests. We are all dog lovers and they will get plenty of hugs and affection.

Safety, trust & environment
I have two dogs currently. One is a Basset Hound/Scottish Terrier. Benny is 40lbs and 7 years old and very sweet and gets along with other pups famously. He even shares all his toys! Stella Luna is a Old English mix and we have no idea what. LOL. She is 2 years old and is full of energy. She absolutely loves other dogs and everyone is immediately her friend.

A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks We live in a very quiet neighborhood and would take walks and let them explore. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Wherever they are comfortable. If they have a favorite blanket or their own bed, we will do what we need to do to accommodate them and make them feel at home. Time I'll spend with your dog Since I, my son Sean and Grandson are home, they will get lots of attention and hugs! Your pup will never be left alone. One of us will be home with them at all times.
