The best care for your best friend!

Pet care experience

I'm the sort of person who says hello to dogs on the street. Until recently, I had 3 family dogs: a standard poodle, a dachshund, and a Catahoula, and I've been taking care of them for years. Now I live away from the dogs, so I need some doggie time! You can count on me to take good care of your best friend while you're away, whether you're on vacation or just at work. I work from home as a science writer, so I'm pretty much always around. I am reliable, trustworthy, careful, and punctual. Because I want to provide the best care for your dog, I never take more than one client at the same time. Your dog will get my undivided attention (and unqualified friendship) during the entire walk or visit.

Leah did a fantastic job with my min pin Rollo. She is easy going, yet detailed and thorough and very communicative. Highly recommend.

Information Leah C. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs, but I have a special place in my heart for giant ones: Great Danes, Irish Wolfhounds, Mastiffs... If you have a giant dog I want to hang out with them. If you have a large- or medium- or small-sized dog I also want to hang out with them. Especially for big dogs, I'd like to know ahead of time if your dog has any triggers (for example, one of my dogs despises rollerbladers - we have no idea why) - basically anything that would make us cross the street during a walk, whether it's other dogs, babies in strollers, cyclists, or anything else. I have experience with reactive dogs and pups with separation anxiety, so I'm happy to hang out with them, I'd just like to know ahead of time.
