She has lots of knowledge in the caring for dogs, as well as any special medical attention they may need along the way. I have had the pleasure of having Desi dog-sit my two big fur babies.

My family would definitely give her 5 star review!! We love her!!! ❤️”

14. Kristine C.
About: As a sitter, I stand out because of my unique blend of experience and skills. I specialize in training puppies, ensuring they develop into well-behaved companions. Additionally, I have a passion for senior care, providing attentive and compassionate support to older pets. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment for all animals under my care, tailored to their specific needs and personalities. With me, your furry friends are not just looked after; they're cherished. Pet care is not just a part of my routine; it's a priority that shapes my day. I wake up every day at 3am when my dog is whining in my ear to go outside, ensuring their needs are met even before the sun rises. Throughout the day, I integrate playtime, walks, and feeding schedules seamlessly into my schedule, making sure each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Whether it's early morning walks or late-night cuddles, my pets are always at the forefront of my daily activities. I have fenced and a ring camera with a big yard. I never leave my dog out of my site! They can run around for hours. I have a park by me as well that’s 5 minutes away
15. Chasity G.
About: Have taken care of animals all my life, my own, others and strays. Have experience with senior animals as well. When younger helped a veterinarian next to my house with exams and vaccinations. I'm currently working full time looking to get name out there to build more hours to become a full time job. Feel like starting out part time will allow flexibility but develop relationships. I currently have cats inside who are all fixed, up to date on vaccinations with many cat toys, towers, beds, lots of food and love. I had a dog for 14 years who went everywhere with me.
16. Taylor B.
“Taylor was amazing! She took our booking on super short notice. She took the time to play with our high energy dog and cleaned up the messes they had made. One of our dogs was whining and howling after she left ?”
17. Adrienne R.
About: I own several animals which include cats, dogs, and a leopard gecko. I love animals, and I am good with feeding on time, bathroom breaks on time, and I love to spend quality time with animals! I am good with puppy and kitten care as well. I am a house cleaner as well, so it tends to mix in with the pet care. I am consistently taking care of myself, my house, and my animals. I walk my dog every day, I feed all of my animals at the same time every day, I keep regular vet appointments, and all of my animals are up to date on their vaccines and spay/neutering.
18. Adana H.
“Lover of all pets. She recently kept our leopard gecko for 9 days and provided the best care. She’s even wonderful with our less than friendly Shepard who can be aggressive at times. She handles our wild much friendlier Shepard with ease. 10/10 would recommend her care for any animal.”
19. Danielle R.
About: I have grown up with dogs, my whole life and took all my childhood dogs thru obedience classes in 4H for 10 years. After that I went to animal behavioral college and graduated with my behavioralist degree. I am pet CPR certified. I also help run an animal rescue where we have dogs and cats to care for. I am currently working part time and that job is very flexible so I can work around and fit your pet care needs into the schedule. I make sure to follow all your instructions, and I’m very careful and cautious about walking the dog or letting them out to go potty making sure they’re always on leash, and they never escape.
20. Kahlynn H.
“Kahlynn H is respectful and very loving to animals. She loves taking care of peoples babies and having the honor of others trust her with their pets.”
