Desiree is a close friend of our daughter and of our whole family. We have two rescue dogs; a male "puppy" Great Dane mix and a female Terrier mix. Basically, a very large dog and a very small dog! Desiree handles each of them well, taking the time to get to know their personalities and how best they interact. She exercises caution as dogs can be unpredictable at times. She makes them "follow the house rules" and guidelines set forth by us when we've hired her to watch our dogs. Desiree also knows how to love them up... showering them with lots of playtime and attention. I would highly recommend her to care for your dog(s) when you are in need. She is dependable and trustworthy with both your dog and your home.
