Hey! My name is Darian.
I'm a 26 year old Pet Carer who has a strong love for all animals. Throughout my life Iv'e had and taken care of a variety of animals ranging from cats and dogs to skinks and frogs, so I can assure you that your little furry (or scaly) buddy will be okay with me! Currently my partner and I have two little fur babies (cats) named Puma and Neo who, due to living near highways, we've harness trained from a very young age. We've also worked with sick and unwell rescues/strays through helping local fosters with rehoming or CNR Programs (Capture Neuter Release). During the COVID-19 period I lived with a member of a well known rescue and was able to really understand the nature of fostering and meet lots of new little furry buddies!

In the 2 and a half years I have been working within the animal care profession I have handled cats and dogs (even pigs!) Of all varying shapes, sizes and personalities. I can assure you (and so can my returning customers!) That I will take the utmost care of your furbaby, whether the family is going away and are in need of a trustworthy home sitter, or you think Fido might need another walk or two (or three), I'll be sure to accommodate!

After seeing the extreme high and lows in rescuing and caring for unloved pets, I've recently completed tertiary study under Animal Care with NZMA and will be moving towards Dog Behavioural Training studies in the new year. In saying this, I truly pride myself in treating everyone's pets like my own and have embraced the world of pets with open arms!
