We love your pet like it was ours!

Pet care experience

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!

I was very happy leaving Mylo with Darlene. Mylo seemed to have a good time. She sent daily updates and photos and was very responsive. Our flight got delayed and she was very understanding and had Mylo for few extra hours. Thank you Darlene will definitely book again.

I felt so at ease going on vacation without my dog. Darlene was very responsive and would send updates. I will definitely book her again. Bonus that her house has no pool, it is a one-story house and has gates. Thanks Darlene for taking care of Tank 😊.

Darlene is spectacular. I have never felt so at ease leaving my dog with anyone. She sent me occasional updates and photos which was very nice and my dog Bear had a great time staying with her.
