Hello! My name is Darcey McConnell. I am a 22-year-old freelance designer based in Mount Eden, Auckland.
Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child, and my love for them has grown even more into adulthood. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from caring for family, friends pets, and volunteering at animal shelter fundraisers throughout my teenage years.
My family owns 2 elderly pets, Captain Happy - a purrfect (haha) tabby rescue who earned his name for his endless purrs, and Bonnyo - a wooftastic border collie/lab mix who is the world's happiest dog and loves food more than anything. My house in Mt Eden is the second home for our next-door neighbour's dramatic but beautiful ragdoll cat, Dora.
I am available Monday-Friday and am open to pet sitting any time of the day. I can also do overnight pet sitting. I have a car and live centrally, so I can make my way out to most places in Auckland pretty quickly! No matter how big or small, I can care for pets of all sizes and shapes. I am an active person who enjoys time outside and loves going on walks.
Some hobbies I have are Sculpting, Bouldering, Hiking and Baking.

Darcey looked after our 2 dogs and a cat for a week. Dogs were walked regularly and she was awesome to deal with. I hope she'll be available for next time we need a sitter
Darcy is a lovely person, kind and caring with the animals. Definitely recommend her as a house sitter.
