Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced | Reliable & Responsive
Hi! I’m Darlene, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve fostered pets, volunteered at the humane society, and currently share my life with five wonderful dogs; one of whom is a foster fail I just couldn’t give up! I offer drop-ins, dog walking, and house sitting (I’m unable to stay overnight). Whether it’s a walk, a visit with playtime and snuggles, or spending the day with your pets in their own home, I’m here to make sure they feel loved, safe, and relaxed while you're away. Since I know how important peace of mind is, I provide regular photo updates and communicate clearly every step of the way. I treat every pet like they’re one of my own; with patience, care, and lots of love. Let’s set up a meet & greet! I’d love to get to know you and your pets!

Safety, trust & environment
Im currently renting the home we live in so I won’t be able to board your pets at my house at this time; However, I will make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable at your house by trying to keep their normal routine as much as possible while spoiling them with pets, walks, and treats!
Ratings and reviews
Darlene was awesome with my pups! Very communicative and professional, my dogs really enjoyed the time and effort made.
Darlene had been a dream come true. I love that she can help me with the midday drop-ins when I have a busy day. She is reliable and communicates clearly and I feel confident she loves the pups!
Super great response time. She took care of my 3 big babies with drop in visits. I was nervous and she put me at ease. She touched base with me when she got here and left and told me that they did great. It definitely took a lot off my shoulders, knowing that they were in great hands.
Great sitter and the dogs loved her!
Great job, thank you!
Darlene does an amazing job. It’s leave of mind leaving the house knowing a trustworthy and responsible individual is going to care for your fur babies! It’s also wonderful to receive pictures of the animals while I’m gone! 🥺
