Pets are family.
Pet care experience
I spent 14 years living with and caring for my best friend and companion. A year after she passed, I decided to spread the love I had for her by taking care of your pets, and have been doing so for the last 5 years. I have experience with senior dogs (my dog lived to 24 years) including medications and incontinence. I work outside the home 2 days a week (usually Tue and Wed). I consider pets to be a part of the family, and as such, your pet can expect cuddles, kisses and to sleep in the bed if they are allowed. I live alone, so no need to be concerned about unknown caregivers. I've fallen in love with each and every dog I've cared for and can't wait to meet yours! **repeat clients receive locked in pricing** **REQUESTED SOLO CARE will be charged holiday rates. Please let me know if your dog must be the only pet.
Reviews
Leah was so great with Penny! She was communicative and went above and beyond for her. Will definitely book again!
Leah was great with our two dogs and kept us updated on their wellbeing during their stay.
Leah was great with Romeo and he came home calm and happy.
This was the first time we left our 5 month old puppy with a dog sitter. Leah took great care of Cooper and he didn't seem to want to leave when we picked up!! He is still getting used to other dogs and people & Leah was very patient with him. Highly recommend Leah!

Safety, trust & environment
I treat each dog as my own. I allow dogs to cuddle on the couch and sleep in bed, but able to crate as well, if you prefer. I try to adhere to doggy's normal schedule as much as possible.

Information Leah D. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the daily routine for your pet - do you play fetch in the park every night, or cuddle up on the couch together watching sitcoms? Is your pet an early riser or do they like to sleep in? Do you sneak some people food every now and then? Talk to your pet like a best friend? Dance around?
A typical day
My apartment is right next to a park in a quiet residential area. I am conveniently located to multiple parks, and walks. For dogs with more energy, we can always take a trip to the Clarendon dog park, and for those that like to socialize, many cafes and restaurants within walking distance allow dogs, and some even host Yappy Hours!
