About Darren

Hello!

I've been a lifelong animal lover and have been caring for animals almost as long as I can remember. Growing up, I lived with my very own pack of dogs whom I loved and cared for dearly until they crossed the rainbow bridge (but it has given me experience with caring for both puppies and seniors! Nowadays, I share my home with two rescue cats, but dogs will always hold a special place in my heart. I've pet-sat for friends and family and am looking to try this platform. For the time being, a complimentary 30 minute walk is included in visits (ontop of 1hr duration so total 1hr30 minutes!) and I'll waive any surcharge for special needs animals & multiple pets! (visits only)

I'm deeply passionate about animal welfare and behavior and believe every pet deserves the special love and care that makes them feel fulfilled and happy. I have experience with dog (and cat!) training, but do note I'm self taught and not certified. Fun fact I did research on wild otter behaviour in Singapore!

Pets with special needs or behavioral issues are welcome and I do not discriminate or turn down any pets, unless their needs are beyond my capability of care. I am experienced with administering medication and basic grooming (baths, wipes, nail clipping). However do let me know beforehand so I can assess if I can adequately care for your furkid.

I primarily offer walking services for dogs, and home visits (mammals only, I have limited experience with birds reptiles fish and invertebrates, but we can discuss and Ill see if I'm up to it).
  1. Walks will last 30 minutes up to 1 hour (depending on your animals energy levels). I will walk until the dog does their business but let me know their toilet habits. Walks only available in Pasir Ris & Tampines. I will walk your dog in the area around your home. 
  2. Visits involve feeding, play, interactions (like brushing) & litterbox clearing (if applicable). Visits last for 1 hour. Ill do visits in the East Area (up to Tanah Merah area) as well as in Punggol & Sengkang.
  3. For visits, if necessary, I'll travel down to meet your furkid beforehand for a complimentary meet&greet to determine if I'm the right fit to care for your pet.
  4. I'm also a photographer & cute pictures/videos of your furkids come at no extra cost :D (pictures/videos will be shared to you only). I guarantee at least 1 picture for walks, and 1 video per animal for visits. 
I have also walked cats and can discuss this, but do note for cats, whether they can be leash trained is highly dependent on their personality!

Looking forward to meeting your furkids!

My cat Moxxie is a bit of a jealous feline and so I cannot board your pets at my home, sorry :(
