About Desiree U.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am equipped for almost any scenario that could present itself…safety and trust will be non-negotiable in any atmosphere. I take pride in my integrity and my experience to produce the less stress possible; for both your pet and your family.
Information Desiree U. would like to know about your pet
1. Any medical conditions? 2. Special diet / allergies? 3. Daily medications? If so, I would fill out a medication dispensing form; medication information, dosing instructions, confirm the owner is comfortable with me administering the medication, and sometimes this brings up a conversation: example; I have such a hard time getting "Max" to take his Heartworm Prevention!!! I HAVE TONS OF TIPS and tricks! Magic! I love client education and to help whenever I can, if that means stopping at a newly diagnosed diabetic kitty cats home on the way to pick up my daughter from daycare to show the owner its not as scary as you think to administer insulin, let them feel the support, or a quick nail trim...I want to help. I was born for this, I was made to care for animals. 4. Okay around other dogs, okay if they were to see a quick peek of my cat that will be in her house that is lodged in my bedroom for a split second? 5. Tell me his/her likes! his/her dislikes! I will take it from there :)
A typical day
MY BACK YARD causes severe tail wags! I love dogs, because, of their energy. A day outside, especially when you have a doggo who loves fetch, running in the sun in a safe environment, while being loved on; tons of pets! Gently taken care of and paid a great deal of attention...fills my heart. Walks are limited around my area as far as large parks that allow dogs, but struttin' around the neighborhood...something I will do, with confidence...I prefer my patients at work in a safe, properly fitted harness...and I would like that in my home environment too...I treat every minute out in the open world with caution: a bird flies by and pup gets excited...my leash will not hit the ground. I just take pride in proper handling / restraint and never letting your guard down because I see the accidents that occur. Walks, pets, appropriate treats and safe love!!!

Pet care experience
Hi! I have volunteered at numerous shelters since I was knee high, I am an empath to a fault; compassion that almost makes me heart explode when caring for my patients. I was born to be a Veterinary Technician and I humbly am proud to say I am very good at my job, I never want to stop learning; always remain teachable. I know it can be stressful to put your trust into another for something so precious, I would be honored to help, and I would be even more grateful to take away your worries; your beloved pet would be treated like one of my own.

Reviews
Desiree U. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
The best caregiver I could ever have asked for.
Desiree never showed for the meet and greet and didn’t bother to call. We waited for two hours and she didn’t respond to our messages. She is not reliable at all.
Desiree is one of the best dog sitter ever. Definitely would pick her before any other staff members. Actually she comes highly recommended and she is very good with animals.
