Experience Earns Excellence

ATTENTION: I only accept multiple dogs at once from a single owner. Additionally, since I accept multiple dogs, Rover glitches & will try to charge the additional (cheaper) rate over the initial dog rate. It is $25/night for the initial dog (or single dog if its only one) & $18/night per additional dog. When it does this, I have to correct the amount before confirming the stay. I require clients to make sure your dog/s have all of their own items when dropped off for boarding: food, treats, bowls, medication, toys, crate & a comprehensive list of instructions. We live in a nice home with a large backyard in KCMO. We have four dogs who are trained ESAs, one is being trained as a replacement. We regularly visit dog parks, walking trails, lakes, and other places where we can be active.

Dez and her family is amazing. My Lola isn’t easy dog to open her mind but she loves staying with them and she had great 20 days. I highly recommend her. I really appreciate her work.

Dez is amazing!!! We loved having her as the sitter for our puppy: she was so caring and gentle and sensitive to all of her needs! She sent daily updates with pictures and it warmed our hearts and made us feel so comfortable having her there. She even bathed her and washed her bed before we picked her up! Her family and pups are so sweet; they will welcome your dog into their pack and will make them feel right at home! Can’t wait to use her again in the near future. Definitely recommend!!

Schedule

My sitting schedule is pretty open & flexible right now. I will take care of larger dogs, but it's dependent on temperament & how well behaved they are. I require clients to make sure your furbaby has all of their own items when dropped off for boarding & daycare: food, treats, bowls, medication, toys, & a comprehensive list of instructions.

Safety, trust & environment

Common sense, research, experience, instinct, & following a clients instructions play a major role in caring for animals. The more you engage with animals, the easier it is to care for them.

Pets

A typical day

If your furchild has a specific routine, I will follow it as closely as I possibly can. We will also visit parks & go on neighborhood walks as long as the weather permits.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Takes only 1 client at a time
Dez can host up to 1 pet per night
I have no breed preferences. I do need to know if they have behavioral/trust issues (mainly aggression and skiddish behavior, not necessarily a deal breaker, but I need to know), separation anxiety, medical needs and/or nutritional needs/restrictions.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
