Happy to walk or run your dog!

Pet care experience

Hello! I can’t wait to meet your dog! I am available during the week after work and all day on weekends. I also have rotating days off during the week so my schedule tends to be flexible. I’m happy to walk, run and/or play with your doggie whether it’s at my home or yours. I am an avid animal lover and want to help your dog stay fit and happy. I love to be in the outdoors and prefer to have a furry friend with me at all times! I have owned and cared for dogs for years. I really do love all breeds and sizes. I am nurse (for humans) and am comfortable giving dogs medications if necessary. I look forward to meeting your doggie!

Leah is a wonderful dog sitter, she has been dog sitting for me for years, I have 2 boxers. She loves them and cares for them as though they are her children and really enjoys them. When I go away, I fly her down to Florida (where I live) to stay at my home and watch my dogs. She is trustworthy, very responsible, and I Vacation with the peace of mind that my dogs are in good hands.

I have a senior miniature dachshund with a history of back surgery and fractures to her pelvic bones. Due to her injuries, she has weak hind legs, partially drags her legs when she walks and has a sensitive back. Leah took the time to listen to my dogs condition and was extremely understanding. In addition, during her stay with Leah she was finishing a cycle of antibiotics due to a urinary tract infection. Leah gladly took her in and gave her the medication. She was great with my dog and I felt extremely safe leaving my doxie with her.

Leah has been a regular caregiver/walker for my little Lhasa Apso, Chili. I must say, having used a number of dog sitters previously, Leah is by far the best! Caring for dogs seems to come natural to her. She’s adept at monitoring and responding to the dog based on his specific needs, the mark of a true caregiver. This includes sensing when the dog needs to be walked, taken him out to the bathroom, feeding the dog on schedule, supplying ample fresh cold water, and even brushes the little guy; him and I are both lucky have her services. This all equates to trusting Leah with my dog when I’m away, the most important factor in a dog sitter. After all, a pet is like a member of the family! I’ve seen her interact with dogs of all breeds and sizes, with equal success. I would highly recommend Leah as a dog sitter, in fact I would go as far as to say I would hesitate to use anyone but her after seeing the care she gives.

Information Leah B. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds! I’d like to know if a dog is people or dog aggressive and any triggers the dog may have to make sure the walk is a positive experience.

A typical day

We will go on lots of walks, mainly on side walks or through parks. I live close to Chelsea Piers so it’s nice to walk by the water. I’m happy to go to the dog park if the owner is comfortable with that and gives permission.
