Caring and Reliable Sitter

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was about 7 or 8 years old. I’ve taken care of my own dogs, friends’ dogs, and other dogs I’ve boarded in my apartment. Due to my current roommate having a dog, I’m only looking for house sitting bookings at the moment. I love to take dogs on walks downtown by the battery and Hampton park.

Dessa was very sweet and my Bentley seemed to have a lot of fun with her! She sent me photos and updates which was awesome! I definitely recommend having Dessa watch your fur baby!

We enthusiastically recommend Dessa as a caregiver! She’s empathetic by nature and is passionate about dogs. She clearly enjoyed discovering our dogs’ quirky personality traits through play and exercise and they love her for it. She’s active so good long walks are easy for her. Reliability and responsibility are a given-very trustworthy. Just a sweetheart!

Dessa is a huge dog lover! She has watched my baby several times and always sends me pictures and videos of my pup having a great time! She is super sweet and my pup is exhausted after a long fun day of being with Dessa. She has also kept her for a weekends and I never have to worry because I know she is in good hands. She also has watched my cat and loves each animal as her own. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently am only accepting house sitting bookings, so if the yard is not fenced I will always use a leash when taking them outside. I also always use a leash on walks. I tend to avoid other dogs on walks since to avoid any fights between them.

Information Dessa Valerie A. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer for the dog to be crate trained or behaved well enough to be left alone at home for little bits of time. That way I can still get errands done during the weekends.

A typical day

I love to take walks downtown, go by pet friendly coffee shops, walk around areas like Hampton Park and the battery. I also enjoy taking them to the beach to run around.
