Friendly + Loyal. Your dog..and me!

Pet care experience

My first dog was a sweet (and wild!) rescue named Kelsey. I was 10, and she became my best friend. Kelsey passed on to dog heaven when I was 15, and my life never settled down enough after that to get another dog. However, I love to live vicariously through your fur baby. I've been a dog sitter for 12 years, and have taken care of everything from a single miniature Yorkshire Terrier to 3 giant Bernese Mountain Dogs. In my non-dog life I'm a screenwriter, actor, and photography assistant and I live with my partner Jesse. We both write from home, and when we have acting gigs they rarely overlap so one of us can be at the apartment almost 100% of the time. We love being outside, and will jump at any opportunity to do something physical. Other hobbies include dancing, yoga, reading, art, and cooking. We both grew up in VA's blue ridge mountains, but we love life on the west coast.

Leah and Jesse did an amazing job with Pikachu who is elderly and blind. They administered all her various medications and gave her all the attention and cuddles she desires! I got frequent updates that made me feel secure she was receiving excellent care. I very highly recommend them!

Leah was so great with Xaya! I had an emergency situation and she was quick and flexible with her schedule. Very reliable for my dog who I often feel nervous leaving with anyone. I highly recommend Leah for your sitting needs, she exceeded my expectations. Thanks Leah!

Leah is a pro… never had any worry leaving my best friend with her. Followed all of the instructions and I got back a well behaved boy, like I never left.

Leah has by far been the best rover sitter for my very high energy australian shepherd! She took him on several walks and sent me videos and pictures of him throughout the day!

A typical day

I love to follow your lead on this one, and do my best to mimic your little companion's typical day to minimize the stress of being away from home...although they may get more snuggles than they're used to! If your pup is the outdoorsy kind, I love heading over to Griffith Park for a hike.
