“Mike was fantastic! We so appreciate the care he gave our furbabes. He went above and beyond, sitting with our pups after their walks and sending us pictures of their adventuring. His communication and updates were great. We will definitely use Mike again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire adult life. I currently have 3 dogs between the ages of 8 months - almost 12 years old. I have experience with senior dogs with disabilities and puppies that require a lot of love, care, and attention. I love spending time with dogs and being outdoors with them as much as possible. I am hoping to get an opportunity to walk or run with your dog? I am always looking for a new walking or running buddy depending on your dogs energy levels. I am available for walks every day but my schedule does change. I am a full-time nursing student but can always make the time to spend with your pup. I provide a fenced in backyard and 3 friendly dogs that will become your pups new best friend. I enjoy walks or runs on/off leash and am even willing to do hikes for those dogs that require more of an adventure.
“I’m a breeder for over 20 yrs, I don’t let just anyone watch my dogs. I am in California and one of my dogs was in Ohio with my son. I reached out to Liesa and she was amazing. I felt so comfortable, from a distance. Pictures , photos , truly amazing. My girl is not just my pet but next generation of service dogs. My dog is my family and I would recommend her any time!”

I love meeting and bonding with the dogs I sit, and I would love to open my home to your pets. My availability during the summer months is flexible. I am a full-time teacher, so during the school year, my availability is limited, but I am willing to work with clients to figure out the best plan that will work for you and your dog.

On the weekends, I’m open. I have a fenced yard and Attie, who loves meeting new dogs and making new friends. Dogs will need to be crated when no one is home and at night if not house trained.
