Highlights
Pet care experience
Owner away? I walk, sit and stay.
I grew up on a farm in northern Michigan with all sorts of fun critters. I love animals and wanted to be a vet for the longest time. I volunteered at an animal shelter in high school and would definitely do that again if I could. I served 5 years in the Navy and was devastated to leave my dog behind. I would love to give owners a peace of mind when they are away. I worked as a Full time dog groomer where I dealt with all sorts of dogs (from puppies to seniors) before having my amazing son. I have lots of time now that I'm a stay at home mom. I can also provide some grooming services if needed such as trimming nails. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pets!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Despite relatively short notice, Desiree was able to take care of my pets while I was out of the country for a few weeks. Even though my cats are usually shy/reserved around new people, they were very quick to trust her due to how well she treated them. Would very much recommend her services.
Desiree really took the time to get to know our cats. They were really comfortable with her!
My cat Kofta had such a wonderful experience here! I was a little nervous about leaving him, but Desiree made the whole experience so easy and reassuring. I especially loved how frequently they sent me pictures and videos throughout his stay. I never had to wonder how he was doing, I could actually see that he was comfortable, happy, and being well taken care of. They gave Kofta so much attention and genuinely treated him like their own. He came home relaxed and happy, which says everything I need to know about how well he was cared for. The communication was amazing, the updates were constant, and I felt completely comfortable having him there. It’s hard to find someone you truly trust with your cat, but I would 100% leave Kofta with them again. Highly recommend!! 🐱❤️
Very clear and quick communication, took excellent care of our cats. Will definitely recommend and will work with Desiree again.
Desiree put my mind at total ease during my wedding weekend while she cared for my doodles. I will always reach out to her going forward if I need someone to care for my crew! Thank you Desiree!!
Amazing experience. Desiree and her husband took excellent care of my sick kitten. She needed meds round the clock and feeding and they took great care of her. They didn’t keep her in a cage and isolated her in a room where she could play free. They played and socialized with Muki and kept me updated. I hot regular texts and pictures. Highly recommend them. Kind and caring people.
