Good boys/girls only

Pet care experience

I am a student at UT and enjoy playing with and taking care of dogs in my free time to make some extra money. I also run frequently and workout in the parks. I love spending time outdoors. I like to go on long walks and don't mind taking the dogs out every few minutes if need be. I live in a good neighborhood with great places to walk pets. I live in a two bedroom apartment so I prefer to house small to large dogs. I don't have any other pets or children. I only book two dogs at a time due to the limited amount of space. This is also good because it means more time with each pup. Please feel free to make any special requests as I am more than happy to accommodate.

Darren did a great job watching Juno. I would definitely recommend him to others.

Darren and his girlfriend were excellent! My dog, Holly, seemed super happy to have been there, and had been well treated! I'm pretty sure she got plenty of play time, because when we got home, she collapsed for a nap almost immediately! Darren was also super flexible and understanding with drop-off time and pick-up, and was super accommodating, and super affordable! This was my first Rover experience, so I appreciated his patience, as I was very worried and paranoid about my pooch. Darren was very re-assuring! Darren was amazing, and will definitely be using them again next time I go out of town!

Darren was incredibly responsive, and available pretty last minute @630am when I was in a tight spot, having traveled for work. He was proactive about setting up a meeting to make sure the dog he was sitting liked Auggie as well. It's not always easy sitting for a puppy and Darren was enthusiastic. I highly recommend Darren for any pet needs!
