About Darlene

Experience: 40 yrs

For over 30 years, I have dedicated myself to providing exceptional care for pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own, prioritizing their comfort and happiness by ensuring a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine. I manage high-energy breeds with active play and outings, and maintain a clean, secure environment. I also remain vigilant for any signs of distress or health changes. I always have emergency contact information readily available and follow pre-discussed emergency plans. I enjoy witnessing the unique personalities of pets and ensuring they feel loved in their own environment. I am punctual, responsible, and kind. I have experience with young pets and senior pets. I offer pet sitting, walking, daily feeding, medicine administration, grooming, and daycare for dogs, cats, and birds. I would love to use my experience to care for your beloved companion. I have 3 very spoiled cats who believe they are king of the castle.

Darlene was great! She took great care of our cat. She was very responsive and checked in with us every day that she visited our cat.
