Pet care experience

Pet/ house sitting was my first gig at age 13! I've always preferred to spend time with animals over humans, so much so that it became a part-time job in adulthood 😅

Leah was able to watch Chloe on short notice, set up a meet and greet, and was just a pleasure meeting. I could tell that she loved dogs by how Chloe immediately responded positively to her. Communication was top notch throughout the stay and I will be booking her again! Highly recommend!

Over the last two years Leah has been my go to house, dog and cat sitter for days to weeks at a time. She is the absolute best! She is a total sweetheart, my pets love her and my house is always exactly as I left it when I get back. She is great with communication and sends updates to let me know everything is okay. I don’t really want to share, but I can enthusiastically recommend her if you need someone trustworthy and responsible.

I LOVE Leah and so does my handsome boy, Milo!! He always gets so excited to see her! She’s incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and playful and loving with my sweet boy. I love that she’ll send updates throughout the day and cute pics of him as a bonus! There’s honestly no one else I’d trust to care for Milo but Leah !

Leah is genuinely one of the most thoughtful and capable pet sitters I've ever trusted with my animals, and I don't say that lightly. She cared for my four cats and my bunny, navigating two completely different species with their own unique needs and routines like it was second nature. What really set her apart was her competency with administering medication, something many sitters shy away from entirely. She handled it with sensitivity and confidence, which gave me enormous peace of mind while I was away. What I'll remember most is that Leah didn't just pop in, fill bowls, scoop boxes, and leave. She'd settle in and watch a movie at my place specifically to give my cats real cuddle time because she actually cared whether they were lonely, not just basic needs. My cats are not easy to win over, and they were relaxed and happy every time I checked in. She sent me pictures of them sleeping in her lap! She sent updates the whole time, and I could feel how much she felt genuine joy and love being with them. I came home to a house that felt loved on, not just looked after. Leah is trustworthy, warm, and goes above and beyond, as if my babies were her own. She is my go-to gal every time I go out of town. I'd recommend her without a single hesitation.
