I am an entrepreneur currently as I was laid off from my 9-5 in December after 12 years. My schedule is open and generally free. Occasionally I am unavailable from Sat -Tues but that's something I know well in advance. I have my own transportation and don't mind animals in my car.

I will care for any pet as if it's my own. Spoiled and loved. Care will be inevitably determined by the pet parent and the animals specific needs.

Information Desiré R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in detail your animals temperament in all scenarios, such as have near food , any areas they are sensitive to have touched, triggers or reactiveness to other animals or people, etc. Please be clear about your pets daily care and needs, such as feeding schedule, potty breaks, medication etc.

A typical day

This will again be specific to your pet. I am pretty strong and tend to have a more dominate personality with dogs which allows me to walk them safely. I love playing fetch and tug of war or enjoy just relaxing on the couch getting some snuggles in.

Pet care experience

I've had cats my entire life and dogs for the last 15 years. Currently I have 6 cats and 2 dogs. I have a way of getting chosen by animals lol. We have many strays in our neighborhood and the cat distribution system seems to know I won't let them die lol. I have bottle fed many, including 4 of the six I currently own. I had a third dog but he sadly crossed the rainbow bridge in March after 14 loving years. My dogs need medication daily and I have no problem giving it to them. These experiences will only help me to take care of your fur family to the best of my ability!

Desiré took good care of my puppy she was left alone at home sadly we forgot to refill her food container plus we temporarily lost the key so she was left with no security at home. I’m thankful I was able to find her and got a response immediately and came home fed her and took her for a 4 walks! Stayed 5 hrs while we were away. Thank you so much for your service!

Desiré was a great help! When we went on vacation we were stressing about who would watch Tux. Desiré played with him, gave him his feeding schedule and supplements on time. She was truly a lifesaver! You can tell she's an animal person and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable!

Dez is such a compassionate animal lover and advocate. You couldn’t ask for a better person to care for your pups or your kitties! She is excellent with large and giant breeds, but the tinies sure do love her too! She can watch my pack any day!
