Full-time Pet Sitter w/ Experience
Pet care experience
When you hire me, you're not just hiring a pet sitter, you're choosing someone you can trust with one of the most important members of your family. It's a big decision and one you should feel good about. My mission is to enhance your pet's quality of life and simplify yours. This understanding drives my commitment to providing nurturing care that ensures your pet feels secure, content, and loved in my care. With 4 years of experience in pet sitting from kittens and puppies to the elderly, blind, and diabetic, I know how to tend to every need of your precious angel(s). I make sure they are played with, loved, well-fed, receive their medications (injections, oral pills or physical therapy), and have someone to sleep with at night. To help ease the owner's mind, I provide daily pictures of our activities and snuggles. My values revolve around trust and reliability. I'm dedicated to building a relationship you can rely on without hesitation. Schedule a free meet-and-greet to get to know me and witness the positive impact I can have on you and your pet's happiness. In the meantime, check out my website: DB Pet Sitter. You'll find testimonials, details, and examples of my services, and a deeper dive into why I love pet sitting!
Reviews
Desi is so great with Roo! He can be naughty and she’s very patient with his barking and he’s even improving by being on walks with her!!
Desi was wonderful. She sent pics everyday, making being apart a little easier, and my pets loved her.
Desi did a great job keeping me updated on how Creed was doing. Thanks!
We love having Desi walk our boy! She is very patient with him (he’s a barker) and we trust her in our Home!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will follow your rules regarding safety, trust, and the environment. Before you leave your precious fur baby, we will schedule a meet and greet to cover all our bases ensuring a successful and stress free visit. I love routine, so if your animals have one I will follow it.
Information Desi B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for - do they bark when they need to go out or do they stand at the door, what are some of the commands they know, are they leash trained, do they have any injuries, and finally how many snuggles are too many?
A typical day
A happy dog is a stimulated dog. I love to challenge each dog to flex its muscles whether it be mentally or physically. We will play a bunch of games (indoor and outdoor), check out all the new smells in the neighborhood, and explore the block for squirrels and bunnies. Mental stimulation is huge for me. 10 mins of sniffing is the same as intense running. I have learned many games like hide and seek, freezing snacks in Kongs, making lick mats, or hiding treats in towels to help each dog feel happy, content and hopefully sleepy by the end of the day.

I can work from wherever whenever, since I am a full-time pet sitter. The only thing I require is access to wifi. I work with you to find the best dates and times for walks, drop-ins or overnights.
