Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover who’ll love ur babies!
I have professional experience and training in various animal care roles, which has really helped me learn to work with all temperaments and needs. I work at an animal shelter, hands on with over 30+ dogs and cats each day helping administer vaccinations. I was previously a lead animal tech for a dog hotel, I learned how to manage large play groups and keep all the fur babies happy while watching dog’s behavior for signs leading to distress. I also worked in a veterinary hospital where I learned even more on keeping animals healthy and happy, as well as some grooming treatments. I genuinely want to make all living things around me happier and make a difference where I can. I have been obsessed with all animals since I can remember, and have had the pleasure to experience and love so many different types and breeds. I would love to give your animals love!!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am used to working with animals who may need a bit of reassurance or a bit more time to aclimate in a nervous environment. I have experience in shelter settings and a large history in health care, which makes me confident in deescalating situations and caregiving in general.
Ratings and reviews
It was a pleasure to have Leah back to look after Shanti. Leah gave her plenty of loving care.
Leah , Was so wonderful with our Dog Buddy 💕🐶 Thank You so very much
Leah is delightful! Shanti was immediately happy to see her and at ease with her. We look forward to having Leah back for more walks!
Leah is the best! She takes such good care of my cats, I always feel so comfortable knowing she’s with them and giving them love
She went above and beyond of what was expected. Our dog and cat were lovingly taken care of and our home left spotless! Followed instructions!
Leah has taken care of my German Shepherd who has so much energy along with my 7 year old cat who’s terrified & anxious of almost anything with absolute care, patience, and love multiple times. Both of my animals require such a different level of care and affection which she has continuously provided. She makes sure my dog is able to express his energy taking him for long walks and throwing balls back and forth with him as well as making sure my cat gets the gentle safe environment he needs in order to come out from hiding to eat his meals & give some cuddles. 10/10 recommend her for your animals as well.
