“Desiree watched our two pups over the weekend at our house and we could not be happier. She was our first experience using Rover and she has set the bar high! Our meet and greet helped to calm my husband and I’s nerves. She is on top of communication with quick responses. Our dogs were loved and we could tell they had a great time with Desiree. Hoping we can have her watch them again in the near future.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Julie! She was professional and took amazing care of my pups (and fish) while we were out of town. Before her overnight stay she even came to meet me and the pups and brought them treats. I have no doubt they were well taken care of and will absolutely use her devices again in the future!”

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of animals over the years. Growing up I always had dogs and cats, and rats when I was older. I have pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors for extended periods of time. Additionally, I have worked as a kennel attendant at a boarding kennel. There, I got to take care of all kinds of dogs and cats, and have plenty of experience with giving medication and caring for any specific needs. I just graduated college and am not working, so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I have open availability, and work with your specific needs. Since I live in an apartment, I cannot bring any pets home. However, I can stop by multiple times a day for potting, feeding, and playing, or I can stay there if your dog needs more company.
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors pets in the past while they’ve been out of town. Taking care of pets is something that I enjoy doing. I currently work full time and am looking for extra work mostly on the weekends but occasionally weekdays. Weekends I’m available at all times and weekdays I’m available mostly in the evenings. Wherever I’m providing care for pets, I make sure that they are in safe environments. Cleanliness is very important. I follow directions that I receive from the owners of the pets that I’m watching and give their pets attention.
About: Passionate dog enthusiast dedicated to spreading joy, one wagging tail at a time. With a heart full of love and a lifetime of canine companionship, I cherish every moment spent in the company of our loyal four-legged friends. Whether it's long walks in the park, cozy cuddle sessions on the couch, or simply sharing a moment of laughter and play, I'm committed to providing the happiest, healthiest, and most enriching experiences for dogs everywhere. Let's embark on this journey of unconditional love and boundless friendship together! I am currently free for any time/schedule at the moment! This may change in the future but I’ll be sure to let you know if it does I have 4 AussieDoodles and an Umbrella Cockatoo, so there is no shortage of company for your pet in my home! All of my pets are super friendly with other pets!
