Chief Inspector Darwin

May 23, 2024

I’m taking care of a 15 year old mixed breed shepherd dog named Darwin while his owner is on vacation. He has a keen interest in his neighborhood and everything that happens in it. He’s famous with all the neighbors, knows everyone, and keeps the UPS drivers from getting too complacent. Darwin has extremely keen curiosity that keeps him active.

He is one of my favorite canine characters. He’s slow because of his age, but always ready for adventure. His stamina is impressive and his personality is very sweet (if you don’t drive a UPS truck). He lives in a beautiful neighborhood where it’s a pleasure to walk in all seasons.

I started pet sitting during the pandemic. It is a very rewarding job. I decided to do it because when my dog was old I had no way to find a proper sitter, and it was a strain on my lifestyle. I put my profile on Rover and started to serve pet owners. It is a super rewarding way to spend time and serve the community. Darwin is one of many sweet and loving pets I know. Essentially I have a lot of therapy animals that sometimes depend on my services. It’s a good gig.
