Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Desirée, I'm 20 years old and I've grown up with animals and been around them my entire life! I've always been a huge animal lover and have experience with many animals, my specialty being reptiles, cats and dogs. I have two energetic Labradoodles at home named Dutch and Dakota and I love to get outside to exercise with them, whether it be playing fetch or going for walks! I started pet sitting in high school and currently volunteer at Operation Kindness and love every second of it. For me, pet care is a way to indulge my love of animals, and to ensure that your furry family member is getting premium care. I believe pets are part of our families, and I will treat your pets as such. I couldn't imagine my life without all my animal friends and I can't wait to meet yours! I currently live in West Hollywood and I'm willing to travel for walks, drop in visits and sittings! If you hire me to watch your furry family, you can expect a minimum of 2 updates a day with photos included!

Desiree got Anna’s attention right away. Anna really likes Desiree. I feel very comfortable with Desiree watching my Anna, as she is very kind and considerate.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm pretty new to Rover, but most of my clients come from Wag! I’m usually booked for overnight sittings and drop in visits to check in on pets multiple times throughout the day! But I’m also available throughout the day for walks! Let me know what your needs are and I will try to meet them to the best of my ability!

Information Desiree W. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know the vet’s information in case of an emergency. Additionally, it’s important for me to know if your pet is aggressive towards other cats or dogs, has any separation anxiety, if there are any allergies or foods that he/she is not allowed to have, if he/she needs special medications, favorite toys and if there’s any other special care that I can offer. All breeds and ages welcome! If you are looking for me to house sit: I would like to know in detail what care you would like provided and when. It is important to me to keep your babies on schedule and make sure they feel right at home while you're away. I would like to know how often you would like walks and potty breaks. If the last day of service for dog sitting is past noon, a $15 charge will be added to the total. If you're looking for drop-in visits: Please provide details regarding the drop-in visits. I want to make sure you are happy with my services so please let me know if there is anything specific outside of feeding and playing with your fur babies that you would like for me to provide.

A typical day

Depending on your dog’s energy level, I like to play fetch, tug of war, and chase with your pup. I also typically bring my own treats to relax shyer pups (and will discuss if you are okay with the type of treats I use beforehand). I love to explore on my walks, and if your pup is up for it, we’ll explore nearby nature trails and parks - if your pup has a preferred route, just let me know. I generally avoid dog parks to be on the safe side, but am happy to take your dog if that’s part of his or her routine. In addition to pet sitting, my rates include full service house sitting. Your linens will be in the washer when you get home, muddy paw prints will be wiped, and trash will be taken out. If you have any other special requests about your house (collecting the mail daily, setting the alarm, etc.) I’ll be happy to do so! Making sure your home and pets are safe is my top priority.
