Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pets’ favorite sitter! 🐶🐱
I grew up with both dogs and cats and am no stranger to pet care! Walks, feedings, cleanings, you name it! More recently, I am primary sitter for Lucile and Barkley, two dogs of a family friend for going on four years now. Three walks a day and plenty of time for cuddles! I used to work for Wag when I lived in San Francisco before transitioning into full-time work. I’ve walked all kinds of dogs, big to small, and believe that all animals deserve top tier care! I hope to meet you furry children soon! 🫶🏻

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
My roommate has two cats of her own so I will not be offering boarding services. It’s important to me that the environment be exactly how it was left by the owners but if I notice that food has made it out of the bowl or if your pet has an accident, I’m there to ensure this gets cleaned. Upon arriving, I always ensure I take my time with the animals to build trust by allowing them to familiarize themselves with me through smelling, and offering owner-approved treats!
Ratings and reviews
Brick was happy as a clam when I got home.
Desiree is absolutely amazing! I asked her to watch my elderly cat, Marley, for 9 days a bit last minute and she responded so quickly to take us on! She was great with communication and set up a time to meet Marley before I left :) I was a bit nervous to leave my cat for so long since she’s older, but Desiree made me feel so at ease. It was obvious she took her visits very seriously, and was so sweet/affectionate with Marley. I could tell through pictures and videos Marley loved her and felt comfortable as well! It also helped so much she would give daily updates. I can’t recommend Desiree enough and I will definitely be asking her to check on Marley again!
Desiree was the best. She took care of our old grumpy lady 😺 following every detail that we asked for. She was always on time and with an excellent communication. Super recommended.
Desiree was great! She helped put my mind at ease while I was away. She is very detail-oriented upon going over the care routine and I knew my kitties would be in great hands with her.
Highly recommend! Desiree was so responsive and communicative throughout the entire stay, and we felt totally comfortable knowing our dogs were in great hands. They absolutely loved having her there and seemed so happy and relaxed when we got home. We’d definitely book with her again!
Desiree took wonderful care of our two cats! Great communication throughout and took really cute pics. Biscuit and Tartine approved 💕

Schedule
I currently work full-time for a genomic testing lab that offers testing for early and advanced stage cancer patients but remotely so it does allow for the flexibility of stepping away when needed!
