Pet care experience

Teaching PawMama, Furbaby Lover

I have had a pet for as long as I can remember. I have raised my 5 children with a love for animals as well. We recently lost our furbaby Sophia, who we had the pleasure to raise and care for almost 12 years. We also have a 9-year-old Pitbull mix, Argent, and a 5-year-old Jack Russell, Evie. We rescued our 2 Pit bulls from the shelter and were gifted our Jack Russell, as a puppy. It had been a while since I had taken care of a puppy, but it was an amazing experience to help potty train Evie and watch her personality develop over time. I have previously worked at a boarding facility for dogs. I have experience walking and bathing all breeds of dogs. I have experience taking special care of senior dogs, like our Sophia, and have an abundance of patience stemming from being a Mom and a teacher. I enjoy volunteering at the shelter when I can. Being around dogs makes me so happy!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two friendly 'puppy friends' if your pet would need to be cared for in my home, however, I would prefer to offer services in the comfort of the pet's home. Of course, we could figure out the best option for you so that you are comfortable with your pet's care.

Desirae has been one of the best sitters Mack has had since I started using the Rover app, she is a pet owner herself, and she understand my pet, and he is very comfortable with her thus far. She's reliable, flexible and very pleasant to work with and I would highly recommend her services for your pet.

Desirae was everything I could have asked for in a sitter - and more! I got pictures, videos, and lots of great updates about my house and my pup! I will definitely be booking her again!

Desirae was amazing! She is consistent and is always available to communicate for any needs or changes. She is flexible and works with you. I knew my dog was well taken care of and I didn’t have to worry at all. I highly recommend Desirae for when you need your fur baby taken care of because they are in such good hands with her!

Schedule

I am a teacher. With Summers 'off', I tend to work jobs such as Door Dash and Instacart, however, when I learned about this program, I could not wait to set up an account and get started. As of now, I have an extremely flexible schedule to help take care of your pets. When school is in session, I will continue to accommodate my schedule to meet the needs of our furbabies.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs that need to be addressed and cared for. I like to be prepared in case of an emergency. Additionally, it’s all about making you and your pet feel comfortable with my services. I am open to all tips and tricks. Thank you!
