Licensed Veterinary Technician
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Desirae and I have been providing pet care for 20 years. I am a licensed veterinary technician (MI, NV) but I am currently taking a break from the clinic to raise my two kids (ages 6 and 2). I am passionate about not only helping pets but also the people who love them. I believe that everyone deserves quality care for their pets and I aim to provide affordable care with the highest standards in the business. Whether you have 1 dog, 10 cats, or a whole farm I would love to meet you and help you with all your pet care needs. I have also opened up my home for boarding should that be something more suitable for you. When your dog stays with us they become a part of the family and are welcome to enjoy the numerous dog beds, toys, and fenced back yard. To ensure the easiest transition we follow all the same rules that you have in your home. You are welcome to bring any favorite toys or beds they have to help them feel more at home. If this is something you are interested please feel free to reach out to set up a meet and greet. Being a licensed veterinary technician means that I am comfortable taking care of any medical needs your pet may have have. Whether your pet has arthritis and just needs a more gentle touch or they are diabetic and need injections I can provide that care for them. My education and experience working in specialty veterinary medicine means that I come uniquely qualified to provide an exceptional quality of care for your pet. If you are in need of pet care and want the piece of mind that they will be provided exceptional care please reach out. I would love to meet you and welcome your pet into the family.
Reviews
I don’t know what we would do without Desirae. She has taken care of Finn for us several times. She, and her family, treat him like he’s a part of their family. We were in Europe for over 2 weeks and I didn’t worry about him at all. The daily updates and pictures she sends are wonderful… including playing outside, spa days, special toys, and being read to ❤️ Do not hesitate to choose Desirae as your pet sitter!
as always, desirae provided the best care for our little fur/feather family. thank you ❤️
Desirae is the best! I swear Finn misses her and her family when we take him home 😆
Desirae is a Godsend! We’ve used her a few times and she quickly became our go-to sitter. My husband and I joke that our Finn doesn’t want to come home after having so much fun at her house 😆 We know he is happy and well taken care of when he’s with Desirae.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is one of my top priorities when caring for your pet. I have a double fenced yard and keep a watchful eye on them while they are outside. I am sure to always do slow introductions with my two pups. My dogs are the babysitter type and love making new friends. If your dog feels safest in a crate that is something that can be provided otherwise they are free to make my home their home.
Home
Information Desirae R. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any type of aggression that is very important for me to know so I can make sure to avoid any triggers for them. Please also let me know if they have any separation anxiety, bolting history, or if they try to dig under/jump over fences.
A typical day
I love walking the trails and visiting the local parks. We can play catch, frisbee, or snuggle on the couch if that’s more their style.
