About Darrin
I love dogs! I have had various pets throughout my childhood and adult life. My Gorgeous dog, Samba, passed away two years ago after a long and illustrious life.
I now have a gorgeous Greyhound!
I walk a lot everyday, usually down by Edgar and Merri creeks, or around my quiet neighborhood, so your dog will get a good amount of exercise.
I work as a part-time piano teacher at a school two days a week, and as a performer various days and nights of the week, but I am home a lot, practicing the piano and composing, so can offer care that includes a lot of company!
Over the past year I have looked after my neighbor's dog (a Scottish Border Terrier), my sister's dog (a Cavalier), and my friend's dog (a Jack Russell), and they had a good time! My home will be like a luxury hotel for them, with heaps of cuddles, couch-time, walks, and play! I am more than happy to meet with you before they come to stay, so you can meet me, and check out my house. And while your dog is staying with me, I will happily send you pics of their adventures.
Communication is important to me, and keeping your dog happy and safe is my goal!
Please feel free to ask me any questions.
Thanks! Darrin
