Safety, trust & environment

When in clients homes I follow the rules and regulations they have had set for me. If it’s feeding, cleaning or watching, I listen. When I am at my home the same rules are followed just in a different environment. I have experience with mild aggression in dogs such as food aggression, cage aggression, fear aggression. I can also be TRUSTED to care for 2 dogs that do not get along, under the same roof.

Information Darriell M. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know if a dog has any medical needs that I will have to attend to, if they are aggressive towards people or other dogs, if they are food aggressive or if they are a resource guarder. It is also important for me to know if they are aggressive towards toddlers so I can work out childcare ahead of time!

A typical day

I love to get out with dogs! We will not be sitting in one space all day. We will explore nearby scenery if weather applicable, I always let the dogs walk or “lead” me to whatever they find interesting . If not we will stay inside and find some toys to play with or a bed to lay on if we’re feeling lazy! I try to play for at LEAST 45mins-1hr, longer walks (for working breeds especially), toys & treats on walks. I enjoy getting out to the dog park (with owner’s permission) as well!

Pets

I love taking care of animals.

Pet care experience

I grew up with animals in my family, i remember having my first cat at 6! I started off being around small breed dogs as a child & taking care of them, as I grew older my love for the larger breeds grew although I love all. I have had frogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, a bunny, etc! I’ve also cared for many that I didn’t own, I’d say I’m pretty experienced. They bring me pride and joy. I have mad a bully mix named Marshall for 5 years now, an orange cat just came into our family! I would be more than happy to stop by and check up on your dog or cat. I also do not mind walking your animals. Your animal(s) will get all the love and attention they crave, with a side of extra treats (only if allowed) I will listen to any strict rules set in place for the care of your animal(s) I hope I can work with you and your animal(s) soon. It would definitely be my greatest pleasure

Darriell took great care of my animals while I was out of town! I received several pictures and updates per day and truly appreciated the strong communication. She did a wonderful job and I look forward to using her services again in the future.
