Pet care experience

I’m a mama to 6 (3 human, 3 4-legged, and a tri-pawed!), and USAF spouse (so base access is a non-issue!) I have around 10 years (consecutive) working with & caring for pets, personally and in a variety of professional settings. My “specialty” and true passion is working with dogs. I’ve worked as a dog bather, groomer, and obedience trainer! I really feel I’ve found my true purpose in these amazing animals!! Currently I work full time for a local boarding facility & am a trained veterinary assistant. Following dogs closely in my List of Things I Love are, of course, our Feline Friends! Anyone who says cats don’t love like dogs do are right! Cats love like cats do!! Learning their language & preferences is so much of the joy in caring for kitties! I have also personally & professionally cared for a host of small animals and “exotic” pets to include: guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, ball pythons, parakeets, canaries, and conures.

Desiree is always so great with Milo and Rummy! After so many bad experiences with other sitters, she truly gives us peace of mind when we leave our pets!

My roommate and I honestly can not thank you enough for caring for our babies! We greatly appreciate you helping us so last minute! It was such a relief having a reliable sitter who went above and beyond to care for Rummy and Milo! We were able to relax and enjoy our trip without worrying about our little guys! Thank you, a million time thank you!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
