Active Sitter w/Training Experience
Pet care experience
Animals and pet care have been a lifelong passion of mine. I grew up with dogs, and began volunteering at my local shelter when I was 12 years old. In the past three years I’ve focused on expanding my positive-reinforcement-based dog training knowledge and experience. Increasing the quality of life of my pets and all the animals I encounter is one of my greatest joys. I am active, adaptable, and adept at understanding the body language and needs of the animals I work with.
Reviews
Leah is amazing! Our pup is slow to warm up to people, but she warmed up to Leah right away. We feel so secure leaving our pup with Leah :)
Leah is really thoughtful about how she approaches this job. Really organized, great communicator and dependable. Norby was a happy girl when I got home!
Leah is wonderful!
Leah was so responsive. She took time to write thoughtful updates and took some lovely photos of our cat. I know our kitty got great playtime and care!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced yard and a friendly and well-socialized 20lb dog who plays well with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I also have crate training experience if needed. I live within walking distance of a dog park. Happy to adapt to whatever the energy and social needs of your dog might be, whether it be in your home or my own.
Information Leah H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if you’re comfortable with me providing and distributing treats throughout our sessions. Does your dog have any allergies, phobias, aversions, or behaviors that I should account for?
A typical day
I enjoy discovering what interests and motivates each individual dog, whether it be play, treats, affection, or new experiences. I have a collection of puzzles and enjoy developing ways to keep play and exploration stimulating, positive, and engaging.
