Pet care experience

Dogs (and cats) have always been a big part of my life, and I’ve cared for them at every stage, from tiny puppies to older dogs who need a little extra love. Whether your dog wants to play or just relax, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I can also help administer medications if needed.

Darlene was awesome ! I have an aloof little cat with some separation anxiety, and I was so worried about leaving him while I went on vacation for nearly an entire week. Darlene visited him everyday and took great care of him. I also felt so much better because she’s a vet tech who would be able to recognize if he was reacting too badly to my absence. He even wanted to be friends with her after a few days. A++, highly recommend

Darlene D. pet-sitted my sick cat for a week in April 2024. My cat, Kitcat, required daily meds twice a day plus daily sub-cutaneous fluids. Darlene, a vet tech, took excellent care of Kitcat! The cat looked very good when I got home. Darlene sent me daily text messages with photos to let me know how Kitcat was. I am very impressed on how caring and dedicated Darlene was as a pet-sitter! I highly recommend her services and will definitely hire her again!

Darlene did an amazing job with my Yumi while we were away! Normally when I come back from a long trip she is super excited to see me, like she hasn’t seen another human in months, but this time she was so comfortable and relaxed it’s like I wasn’t gone at all! Fully satisfied with Darlene’s work and will most definitely be booking again.

Darlene helped me out in a pinch when I needed her she was there! My first time leaving my fur babies I was nervous . Darlene set my mind at ease with thoughtful updates after each of her visits assuring me each pet was doing just fine 😊. Photos too! Thank You Darlene! I give you a 10!! Would highly recommend
