Experienced Animal Caregiver

Pet care experience

I have been caring for animals since I was little, and I am currently in college on the pre-vet track!! I love animals of all kinds, I'm familiar with grooming, walking, and overall pet care, as well as playing!! Animals I am most familiar with are Dogs of all sizes, Cats, Guinea pigs, fish, horses, cattle, chickens, turkeys, pigs, some reptiles and even tortoises!

Des. was amazing with our two dogs, Hailey and Buddy, who are both full sized shepherd and shep-husky. She would send pictures several times a day, play with them, and even took our shep hailey to get her an oatmeal bath for her skin to help her itching out of the kindness of her heart. Altho, I Had an issue with my dog that decided to attempt to get out of a room while she wasn't home and tore up the carpet but it wasn't her fault and she was very apologetic and understood without flipping out, which is rare now adays. I highly recommend her to watch your pups! She can watch my babies any day!

Hi! My name is Jordan. I currently attend West Virginia University to study Fashion Merchandising, where I met Des when she became my first-year roommate. Through my time with her, Des has shown extreme care for all other living things of any kind. On many occasions, she would visit my hometown with me and assist in caring for my many animals (includes 5 cats, one of which is special needs, 4 raccoons, & any injured critter who happens upon my house that I can’t bring myself not to care for). She has fed them, assessed them for injuries, helped me to provide grooming maintenance (clipping nails, brushing, washing, trimming paw pads, etc), & generally provided a level of affection that I don’t see most people providing their own pets. Furthermore, Des’ own animals are extremely well taken care of. Both her guinea pig and dog are very well socialised, always in a clean environment, well-groomed, & extremely happy. She is potentially the most qualified person to take care of anyone’s pets, & finds herself on the very short list of people outside myself that I trust to properly care for my animals, & she would come highly recommended from anyone whose animals she has provided even brief care for.

Safety, trust & environment

I will be sure to follow any directions you leave me as well as allow your dog to get comfortable with me, I am familiar with introducing myself properly to animals! All I ask is thay if there are underlying things such as known biting or jumping or that, if you'll let me know beforehand! I love spending time with animals and I will give them my utmost love and attention! I can't wait to meet your pets!!

Information Desiree G. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer to know about any things they do such as jumping, biting, barking, just so I know what is normal and what is not! Please let me know if there is a behavior you are working on training them with because I could aid in helping promote it, and also if they are triggered by anything in public that I should be aware of!

A typical day

I personally love to go for walks/runs around the neighborhood or even parks that are close by. I also enjoy playing tug of war with pups and any other games or toys they prefer to play with!!
