Teacher-loves dogs-13yrs experience

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Leah and I have been petsitting for almost 15 years. I gained my petsitting experience from babysitting clients who wanted someone they knew and trusted to take care of their pets and homes. Through these experiences, I have cared for young puppies and older dogs (in addition to dogs in their younger years). I have worked with pit bulls, pit bull mixes, great danes, labs, and mixed breeds. I like to base play off of what your dogs enjoy and what you permit because I believe consistency helps reduce any anxiety a pet may feel while their human is at work or away for the weekend. I also have experience with petsitting for families with multiple dogs. I usually take the dogs for walks together unless otherwise specified. I am working on getting my certification for pet First Aid and CPR to better care for your fur babies. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-baby! *During the SUMMER season I have a very large amount of availability. During the SCHOOL YEAR I am only available in the evenings for Drop-Ins and Walks. (While rare, some weekdays I am available for walks, drop-ins, and petsitting during the day. Please don't hesitate to ask!) **I currently DO NOT accept walking, drop-in, or petsitting assignments at hotels. The only exceptions would be if I know you or have worked with you previously.

I know I’ve left a few reviews for Leah from Dog Walking experiences but I want to leave one about my recent House Sitting experience: I had a trip planned with girlfriends and had expected to leave my dog at a boarding facility. We did a test run at day care and my dog was so upset when I picked him up (too overwhelmed) that I knew this wasn’t a good option for him. (Id have felt too bad and wouldn’t have been able to enjoy my time away). Without knowing what else to do, I messaged Leah. It was short notice and (to be totally honest) I was pretty nervous to have someone stay at my house. Leah has been great for dog walking so it was certainly not personal - I just have never had a relative stranger stay at my home - alone. I got home this afternoon and my house was exactly as I left it. And my dog was happy! Everything had been so well cared for. Leah was awesome over the 3 day stay, sending me regular updates and pictures. I am so grateful! THANK YOU, LEAH! Bear and I appreciate you so much!

Leah has been walking Johann weekly for the last 6 months and has been consistently reliable and great! Johann is always super excited to see her, and she follows his health regimen closely with no issues (he's a dachshund that had back surgery). Will continue to use her services. Highly recommend!!!!

Information Leah B. would like to know about your pet

I like to know information about each dog (i.e. what they like/dislike, what their favorite toys and foods are, if they're scared of things like rain or storms, etc). I also like to know about any special needs a dog may have (such as injuries and medications) so I can best care for them.

A typical day

I cannot offer boarding at this time, however, if I am pet sitting at someone's home or walking their dog, I will take their dogs on walks near their home or a nearby park if permitted. As for fun activities, I love to play games and toys with dogs, so please be sure to tell me your dogs' favorites! I also realize that some dogs just want to cuddle, so cuddling is another option too, of course.
