About: Hi, I'm Darron, but most people know me as Dingo. For most of my life I've been guiding people through outdoor adventures. From whitewater rafting on the Kern River to exploring the backroads and trails of Kern County, helping others experience the outdoors has always been my passion.

My Promise I treat every dog like an individual. Some dogs need miles of hiking. Some need confidence. Some simply need a chance to get outside and be a dog.

I've built my life around helping dogs stay active, engaged, and happy through safe, enriching outdoor adventures. I love dogs, and I take the responsibility of caring for them seriously. Welcome to a full acre of dog heaven. Plenty of room to run, plenty of friends to play with, and endless attention from someone who truly loves dogs.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and senior pets, and I understand how important patience and consistency are for their comfort. I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior, maintain familiar routines, and provide a calm, low-stress environment—especially for older pets who may need extra support with mobility, medications, or special diets. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or gentle care, I make sure every pet feels safe, respected, and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the week. I’m able to plan my day around visits, feedings, playtime, and check-ins, making sure your cat’s routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether it’s morning, midday, or evening care, I have the availability to give your pet the time, attention, and reliability they deserve. In my home, pets have access to a large, fully fenced backyard for safe play and exercise, along with a smaller fenced area that’s perfect for more controlled time, introductions, or pets who need a quieter space. Inside, I keep a calm, clean environment and follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, rest, and comfort. In clients’ homes, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal schedule to reduce stress—keeping things familiar with feeding times, litter box care, play, and companionship. I’m attentive, respectful of your space, and always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency.

“I cannot say enough good things about Kharlee. She took such good care of Chloe and even helped me out of a bit of a jam the next day. Leaving a pet is such a stressful experience for both the pet and the parent, but Kharlee really put us both at ease. She even sent photos throughout the day showing Chloe enjoying her temporary accommodations. I happily recommend Kharlee and would definitely request to book her if I am in the Bakersfield area again.”

“I’ve never had my dogs literally excited once they realized they were being dropped off at a dog sitter before. This is my second time using Sara and when I was standing at her front door to drop them off, my elderly dog was scratching at the door to be let in! Both dogs immediately acted like she was family. Highly recommend”
“Misty Blue (my GSP) had so much fun. It was a last minute request and Veronica immediately responded. I was very thankful and I am a happy client. I will be using her services in the future if I ever need a sitter. She periodically sent me updates on Misty which eased my mind.”
