VET ASSISTANT&DOG TRAINER
Hi! I want to introduce myself so that you can better understand me and trust me with your companion. I am a Certified Dog Trainer as well as a Certified Fear Free Vet Assistant, Certified Pet CPR & First Aid Instructor, PawChamp Expert, Certified Pet Nutrition Coach and a Certified AKC Evaluator. I work full time as a dog trainer & a pet sitter! I have multiple certifications in animal care such as Dog Behavior, Dog Walking, Cat and Kitten Care, Animal CPR and First Aid and Animal Psychology! I volunteer at an animal shelter almost every Sunday. I also interned at a vet clinic, so I’m fully aware on how to handle an emergency situation if need be! As for animals, I absolutely LOVE them. ALL of them. I currently own 1 orange cat and an Australian shepherd, but growing up I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, fish, turtles, frogs, iguanas and a horse. I am extremely patient and I will connect with your fur baby on a one on one so that I can better understand them and their behavior. I will check in during and after every visit and make sure that your pet is absolutely happy and safe. Feel free to contact me with any questions. I would love to answer them and work with you and your fur babies! I’m always open to doing meet & greets!

Ratings and reviews
This was my first time using Rover and I am quite impressed! Desiree took perfect care of our senior dog, Molly. She was even kind enough to carry Molly down her stairs for every potty break! Her daily updates were great and we learned a thing or 2 about Molly while we were away on our trip. We had no idea Molly was good with other dogs, until Desiree sent us an update about it. I HIGHLY recommend Desiree and I hope we get to use her again in the future. Thank you for being so good to Molly!
What a wonderful first experience with Desiree and Rover! Desiree sent photos and notes, has great background experience working with animals especially anxious cats and medications. She even washed the few food bowls.
This was the second time we've had Desiree watch our cats and everything went smoothly. She takes such great care of our cats and her updates and pictures of them always make me laugh! We love knowing they are in great hands.
Desiree was wonderful. She accommodated me in every way also being last minute. Sent me daily updates with pictures. Your pet is in good hands with her.
Desiree was absolutely amazing! She responded quickly and professionally at the last minute message to house sit my 5 month old Goldendoodle Atlas as it was our wedding day on Sunday! Atlas had an amazing time even though I sent him with the wrong bag so Desiree came in clutch and helped him out with all the supplies and food that I forgot to give. We picked up our Atlas and he seemed super chill and well behaved when I recieved him back! Thank you for everything we will contact you again
Desiree was great with our Husky/German Shepard who has a bit of separation anxiety. She kept us updated and was quick to respond to texts.

Some pets like to play and some like pets and cuddles, don’t worry! I’m an expert in both! Your pet will have such a great time with me, they’ll miss me when I’m gone! (But I’ll probably miss them more 😉)
