Pet care experience

Animals are my life!

I go above and beyond. I also bath them if needed. I’ve groomed them if needed. I will abide by rules you give me. If they stay overnight,they will have their own pillow to lay their heads on. I’m not afraid of pet”accidents” Picking up poo does not faze me. I f needed,I will sing them to sleep. I’ve been called Dr. Doolittle. We all need to realize,pets live to make us happy. They deserve as much respect as humans. I grew up with pets my whole life. As of January 22, we lost our 12 1/2 yr old Boxer,Vegas. I’m not ready for another yet. I hope I see a pet everyday. If so,my day is complete. I care for all animals as if they were my own. Due to a recent situation,I can only watch dogs,that get along with other dogs. They don’t need to be buddies,but,must be peaceful with other dogs. I take 1-5 dogs ! My 17 year old son is my second hand ❣️

What a relief to find Darrilyn! Our Sadie girl was in good hands for sure! Darrilyn was prompt with all communication and set our hearts at ease by sending pics. We would definitely recommend her and plan to keep her info for future dog sitting needs. Thank you, Darrilyn!

We are so grateful for Darrilyn! This was our second time boarding Steve and Phyllis with her and it was as smooth as the first time. She was very responsive and I knew the dogs were well taken care of. ♥️ We will definitely use Darrilyn again!

Darrilyn took wonderful care of Penny during her stay and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the start, she was responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the whole process stress free, especially since I booked her on fairly short notice. What really stood out was how often she sent pictures throughout the stay. It's such a small thing, but seeing Penny looking relaxed gave me real peace of mind while I was away. Communication was clear, prompt and consistent the whole time and I never had to follow up or wonder how things were going. I could tell Penny was comfortable with her. Overall, it felt like Penny had a genuinely nice stay and I would trust Darrilyn with her again without hesitation. Definitely recommend her.
