Pet care experience
I REQUIRE EVERYONE TO READ MY ENTIRE PROFILE. Thank you in advance. I will also likely ask to move to my cell phone for better turn around responses, the rover app tends to have gaps in response times. I've had animals my entire life. I am patient, kind, structured, and reliable. I am a firm believer that you get what you pay for! Please do not try to negotiate prices with me. If others are offering a much lower rate, I can almost guarantee you they are taking care of multiple animals at the same time. That is NOT how I choose pet sit. If I'm with your fur babies, they get my undivided attention. Your doggie will also get walks (as long as it's not over 100 degrees outside), snuggles, and play time. Please feel free to look through my pictures and read through all my verified Rover reviews left by other owners. Why is my "Photos for clients" a low percentage? Because I give the owners my direct phone number and I provide updates, pictures, and videos that way.
Reviews
My wife and I cannot provide enough praise for Deidra and how she watched out little Yorkie named Harper. She met with us prior to house sitting to understand our home and our preferences on how she watches out little girl. During the stay, she kept us updated daily and I felt 100% comfortable of our dog while we were out of the country. Finding a trustworthy dog/house sitter is very hard to achieve, but we are so happy to have found Deidra! We are looking forward to having her watch Harper and our home again in the future!
Great! Would book for a vacation again!
I love how Deirdra pays attention to detail. She wanted to make sure that she knew our little girl: from her treats and her routine down to the way she likes to play ball. I never worried a minute while we were out of town because she had everything under control. It was such a comfort knowing that our tiny girl didn’t have to go stay somewhere else, but could stay in her own routine at home. I would HIGHLY recommend Deirdra and her pet sitting services to ALL my friends with furry people. Don’t even worry about stressing or planning for a trip to the kennel, just let Deirdra come over and take care of your little fur baby at home. AND, she will update you as often as you’d like regarding your pets and their behavior. Call her today!!
Deidre was great! Our 3 dogs can be a bit of a handful sometimes and Deidre took it all in stride. She handled their medication schedule, early morning feedings and general craziness like a champ. Excellent, proactive communication with us, loved the daily pictures of our furry kids. Will be re-booking for all our future travel needs.
About Deidra F.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I expect owners to invest into communicating their animals health, behaviors, and needs in an effort to create a cohesive environment while the family is away and decrease the anxiety animals feel when their family is gone. Home cameras: I do not mind if you have cameras outside your home. I work in the court system and I can NOT work anywhere where there is an active audio recording system inside home. I will ask you to disconnect it, if I find indoor cameras, I will disconnect them myself. If that makes you uncomfortable or feel as if your animal would not be safe, I am not the sitter for you. That being said, because I do work for the State of Arizona Court System, I am required to obtain fingerprint security clearance annually. Disclaimer: when needed, my fiancé will help me with meeting the needs of any animals I am responsible for at any time.
Home
Information Deidra F. would like to know about your pet
To ensure the best quality of care, it's imperative to be transparent about your animals behavioral and health issues/needs. Everything from how they usually act when the owners go away, to how they interact with other animals. Small things are easy to forget when you're in a crunch to find a sitter and go on a trip, I will ask you to take some time and type up important information anyone would need to know when staying in your home with your animals.
A typical day
I will always check in with owners to see what their animals activity levels are; in addition, to their favorite toys. If owners permit, I will take them on walks, to dog parks, and even local farmers markets or festivals if the weather is not too hot.

Availability
I work fulltime (remotely) for the State of Arizona, I must be able to hard-wire into your router, in order to work from your home. I will leave throughout my stay for a number of things: food, gym, errands, etc. If I have any prescheduled events during the stay, I will be as transparent, as possible, to allow owners to make the decision best suited to them. The goal is to ultimately replicate the owners and animals normal routine. If the animals require 24/7 supervision, an additional cost is added and I will come prepared to not leave your home unless absolutely necessary. If I am staying over in your home, I will always be solo, unless on the rare occasion my fiancé brings me food or stops by to see me if I've been gone for an extended period of time. Should anything unexpected happen and I can not get to your home in time (example: flat tire), I will send my fiancé to ensure your fur-babies needs as always met.
