Highlights
Pet care experience
Animals always come first!
I've pet sat and walked dogs since I was 16. I enjoy walking and playing with any furry friend!(:. I recently graduated Umass with a Bachelor degree in Wildlife conservation. I have worked for The Good Dog Spot in Northampton since 2017 and shortly became their kennel manager. There I have learned proper maintenance, animal husbandry, pet behaviors, and much more in order to have a safe environment for all pets. I am also certified in Pet CPR &First Aid (expires 01/2024). Throughout my college career I also spent time volunteering and working for Forest Park Zoo as an animal caretaker. That being said I also have some experience with exotic pets and am comfortable working with most! I am currently working at the Humane Society in BV as the Foster&Volunteer Coordinator so I also have experience working with fearful/behavioral animals as well!

I can easily follow written instructions but also being able to clarify anything with you before hand. During the meet and greet please have a rough day to day run down for me.
Ratings and reviews
Our cat Blue loves Desiree!
Desiree is reliable, an excellent communicator and is wise when it comes to caring for our shy cat, knowing to give him his space so he can get to know her in his own time.
Desiree was a wonderful drop in car sitter. It was pretty last minute request by us and she was responsive in booking. She is a great communicator and our usually shy cat warmed up to her right away.
Desiree was great! She was responsible and took great care of our kittie. She made the extra effort to reassure Phoebe by reading to her. We highly recommend Desiree!
Desiree was a very attentive and playful sitter! I’d recommend her to anyone!
Desiree is the best! So kind and attentive to animals, and asks great questions before and during care. Highly recommend.
