Animals are my life!

Pet care experience

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 do not take on anymore than 3. That’s only if I know the pets. Otherwise ,one or two . 😊

Darrilyn and her son took great care of our fur babies. She updated us with pictures and videos. She also followed our exact feeding schedule for our dogs. She treated Mia and Daisy as if they were hers. Thank you!

I went overseas for two weeks and felt totally relaxed about leaving Zoe with Darrilyn. She has a very cozy, dog-friendly home with plenty of space in the backyard for the dogs she's watching to play together. She sent pics during my trip, as promised, and my dog was happy and healthy when I came home. Will definitely book with Darrilyn again!
