Pet care experience

Animal lover & pet bestie 💗🐾

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who can’t wait to care for your pets like they’re my own. I’ve spent years helping friends, family, and neighbors with their dogs, cats, and other small pets, including hamsters, birds, fish, and even chickens! I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits. Whether your pup needs a good walk or your cat just wants some company and playtime, I’ll make sure they feel loved and well cared for. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m always happy to follow any special instructions to keep them comfortable and happy. I also have one cat, Desi Jr., my little bestie of eight years. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member!

I wouId highly recommend Desiree to watch anyone’s pets. She loves animals and shows that during any interactions with them. She knows that it can be difficult to leave your beloved pet at home, therefore she goes out of her way to love on them and give them all of the care that they need. She will care for others’ pets like she dotes on her own cat. She knows that each animal has individual needs and pays attention to those details so that they each get what they need. She sent me videos and pictures when she watched my cat, which made me feel better being out of town. She also loves dogs and bunnies as well. Desiree can adapt to what each unique situation calls for.
