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.

Information Dez G. would like to know about your pet

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.

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.

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.

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.
