About: Hello! I’m leanna and I’d love to care for your pets! With a lifetime of experience caring for a variety of animals, from dogs and cats to even a ferret, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to pet sitting. I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets of all ages, including newborns and senior animals, and I understand the unique needs each stage of life brings. Currently, I’m the proud pet parent of an 5 year old German Shepherd mix named Sonic. I offer dog walking, plenty of playtime, and visits to the local park near my home, where your pet can enjoy safe, fun, and enriching activities. I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and pictures so you can rest easy knowing how your furry friend is doing. In addition to dogs, I’m also happy to care for cats and can assist with pets who may require special attention, including those who are unwell. I’m available whenever you need and am committed to providing the highest level of care for your beloved pets. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies soon! I’m currently not working since having to move home to take care of my dad since my mother passed away so I have plenty of time on my hands. I can drive. I provide personalized care for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes, depending on what’s most comfortable for the pet and owner. In my home, your pet will be treated like part of the family. I have a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for playtime and relaxation. I offer daily walks, trips to the local park for exercise and socialization, and lots of interactive play to keep them entertained. My German Shepherd mix, Sonic, is friendly and well-socialized, and I make sure that any pets in my care feel comfortable and secure with him. For in-home pet sitting, I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, ensuring they’re fed on time, get their walks, and have plenty of companionship. I also provide updates and photos so you can stay connected with your pet. If your pet needs extra attention due to age or health concerns, I’m happy to adjust my care to meet those specific needs. Whether in my home or yours, my goal is always to provide a safe, fun, and loving environment that allows both you and your pet to feel at ease.


7. Thalia R.
“Thalia has taken care of my dog Solo several times, and he loves her! She's a good trainer and mindful of my dog's dietary needs. She's very sweet and Solo is always happy with her.”


8. Alina R.
“Alina has watched my three year-old dog several times over the past year and she truly has become her best friend. She constantly keeps me updated on everything pertaining to my pet which brings me a sense of peace when I’m away traveling. I couldn’t recommend Alina more. She’s a great human and my dog adores her.”




9. Natasha S.

“Natasha was always on time and Riley was very well taken care of! I am planning on asking for Natasha on all Riley’s future walks! Thanks for the peace of mind!”


10. Berthie H.

“Words can not express how grateful I am to Berthie. I remember contacting his back in December when another walker/sitter canceled on me hours before my flight. While he couldn't help me then his willingness to assist me made a lasting impression and I told myself I would definitely work with him in the future. Berthie is understanding, provided a high level of care, and is willing to go the extra mile for his clients. He isn't afraid of larger dogs. And is able to command the attention of the pup to make walks go smoother. I honestly have a lot I can say but I'll leave you with this.... if you get a chance to work with Berthie.... run towards the opportunity don't walk! You won't be disappointed and your fur baby will thank you for it!!”


11. Willow S.

“As always, it was great to have you as a dog walker. Thank you William!”

13. Yahnique R.
“Yahnique is such a phenomenal and caring caretaker for my lab mix Maxxey he’s a little nervous when around new people but she warmed up to Yahni so quickly and that helped me recommend her to my neighbors and friends. She’s been such a big help and is so patient not only with Maxxey but with me and my family as well.”

“Collette is a very caring and loving person. I feel she would be an exceptional pet caregiver. She truly would give her best in caring for someone's pet while they were away. Thank you, Paula KayPaula”


15. May S.
“May took care of my dog (plural-- she knew one of my elderly dogs who has subsequently passed) for approximately two years. She provided walks (always punctual) as well as boarding over the weekends as needed. May worked at a dog daycare center so knew how to keep a firm and loving hand on the dogs. She kept multiple dogs in line on the occasional group walk my dog went on with her. May is a very warm person (seems like babies and dogs love her) in addition to being a very responsible person. She never let me down. I can't recommend her highly enough. Oh yes-- both my dogs love(d) her.”
