Pet care experience

🧸🍯🐾 making pets feel safe ✨️🤎☺️

With over 15 years of experience in private pet sitting and personal dog ownership, I have a deep love and sense of consideration for animals. For two years, I have been dedicated to providing high-quality care through Rover, building a reputation for reliability and attentiveness. Pet care is my only commitment, so I am available for those that need more than the technical pet sitting: drop ins through the day and stay overnight. I have stayed with elder pups who could not be alone longer than 1-2 hours. So, I can be as available within my bookings as much as I am needed.

Safety, trust & environment

Everyone receives specialized interaction suited to their personality and energy level: For dogs, activities often include decompression/sniff walks, backyard play, and relaxed companionship like porch sitting or quiet couch time. High-energy pets receive engaging play and mental stimulation, while seniors or sensitive dogs receive slower, confidence-building interaction and low-stress movement. For cats, there could be wand play, chase-and-capture sessions, window or bird watch enrichment, brushing (if enjoyed), and calm social time on their terms. Between activities, I prioritize rest and normal household rhythm so no one is overstimulated or unsettled. I also maintain the cleanliness of pet areas and keep the home secure and lived-in (for overnights/extended stays).

Darrian was super attentive, professional, and caring for my pup. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a sitter that’s kind and personable with your pets. She communicates effectively with any updates. Remi loves her!!

Darrian was wonderful. She was very understanding of my dog and her timid personality. I felt awful that she had to clean up after my dog when she went potty on the carpet, but she always made sure everything was clean. And I appreciate her help so much. My cats can also be a handful, but she took great care of them. She was very communicative and fast with responses. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

Darrian did a wonderful job taking care of Bean. She was very communicative and sent me good pictures of my buddy! He was very happy and well fed when I got home.

Schedule

Outside of pet care, I lead a quiet, home-centered lifestyle. This translates perfectly into attentive overnight care for animals that thrive in a peaceful, calm environment. Pet care is my sole professional commitment, allowing me to be fully present for your companions. My long-term goals include finding community through pet-related events, pursuing volunteer opportunities, and eventually establishing my own dedicated care business.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Darrian can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
For safety and consistency, the following are most important • Daily routines (feeding times, sleep habits, walk structure) • Medical needs or medications • Sensitivities, fears, or triggers • Social comfort with strangers, children, and other animals (& permissions to interact) • Veterinary and emergency contact information Preparation allows me to support and care proactively instead of reactively. 🙂
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
