Highlights
Pet care experience
Animals know the world and us
I have been around my friends', neighbors', relatives', roommates' dogs for the majority of my life. Whenever they needed walked, we did that. When someone was out of town and their dog needed companionship and care, I would oblige. I've even taken dogs camping! - side note - I've got experience with larger animals like horses and cows, through work and camping. And as a conservationist, I've been blessed to immerse myself in the habitats of a variety of different animals, the world over.
Cat care experience
Desmond also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Pets
Safety, trust & environment
Pets are animals; sentient beings. As it is in my home, so will it be in yours. A pet deserves respect and love, and probably a good chunk of your immediate attention. In general, I place courtesy and respect high on the importance-scale, which means that I will treat your home with care. I have no problems following house rules that ensure the pet's comfort and your peace-of-mind.
Ratings and reviews
Desmond and Pepper bonded fast! Desmond was kind, communicative, and friendly with both me and Pepper. I'm super grateful he came and watched pepper on such short notice.
Very responsive, accommodating, and took wonderful care of my pets!
Des was great! We booked him for a house sit. He was communicative and accommodating of our dog. We got daily updates with photos and our pup seemed well cared for. We would definitely book with him again.
I can tell Desmond is 100% animal lover and 200% cat person. He knew how to treat pets as a family member, also he focused on details and reports anything he saw to owner. That really make us feel secured when we were not with our pets. Highly recommend!
