I do a walk around 6-7AM for a quick walk around the area before I feed the dogs around 7! I like to try to go to the dog park around 8 AM if I have time and let them run it out for 30 mins! I only work 2 days in office, any other day I work from home or I’m off 🙂 if I’m WFH we do 2 walks throughout my shift and then when I’m off it’s feeding and then dog park around the evening time or I have a tether for my backyard they can be on for a bit! This is all stuff I do daily for my own dog so no dog is ever impeding on your schedule 🙂

Safety, trust & environment

I would treat them as if they were my own babies, I taught my dog, very young to be able to go to the dog park and be social nonaggressive. I specifically told her to be gentle with cats and dogs growing up so she loves them. I do have two rooms so if someone needs to be separated or have a little bit of some space way, there’s no problem there either! If I go into your home it specifically to give the babies play times with any toys you allow me to use and just show them the same loving and petting I would for my babies 🖤

Information Dezerae G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has had any interaction with the opposite breed and I need them to know basic commands! Potty training is a must because I do have carpet (everything else is tile)because we’re so consistent with our regiment it’s very important. Also if they are safe to be as active as we are when it comes to going to dog parks and walks.

A typical day

I love to stimulate the dogs mentally and physically with all the toys I have in the house! We play ball and I do if you don’t mind have some mentally stimulating puzzle game they can get into as well! My ashes loves playing around the house and I think that any dog that comes into our home understands it’s pretty open!

Pet care experience

I’ve been fostering and taking care of animals for about 10 years now, between having bottle babies were I had to feed every three hours to also fostering order dogs for Dallas animal services! I am consistently going out with my German shepherd because I think it’s so important to have them socially interactive that I even take care of some of my neighbors dogs when they go out of town! Two of my testimonials are from people that I have fostered animals and they’ve had the pleasure of actually adopting them, I love animals in general, so it’s just some thing that comes naturally 🙂

We are so grateful to Dezerae for taking such great care of our golden retriever, Frank! She stepped in on short notice and was incredibly flexible when we had to extend his stay unexpectedly. We came home to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for dog, and it was clear that he was loved and treated like family while we were away. We would absolutely trust Dezerae with Frank again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter!

She has watched our two boys a couple of times now and has always done an excellent job! Very communicative and gives them the right amount of attention to make sure they’re getting plenty of exercise. Would recommend again!

Dezerae was amazing and went above and beyond to take care of my cat, Chubbs, and keep him company! She sent me pictures and videos during every visit and always kept me updated on how he was doing and what they were up to. She even vacuumed a bit before she left, which was unexpected but so thoughtful! I’ll definitely have her watch Chubbs again and would recommend her to anyone.
