Pet care experience

Love walking & caring for furbabies

I have trained two vivacious pups from 8 weeks old as well as walked a blind senior pug with diabetes. I love to be outside, keep a clean home, and keep a very close eye on any dog I'm with. I may be a bit of a paranoid dog mom to some but pet safety and happiness are very important to me. My current pup, Tori, came to me through Rover! She was too much energy and medical need for her previous owner. I boarded her for about two months on weekends, then he decided he wanted to rehome her to me and my boyfriend. We love giving her the best life with plenty of treats, toys, bandanas, outings, and backyard sploots.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very vigilant and do not let pets I care for out of my sight, even with a fence. I love cuddles, playing fetch, and tugging with toys to give attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have tile and hardwood floors, no carpet--although I am not boarding currently. I love to be outdoors and am an avid runner.

Leah took great care of Murphy over Easter weekend. She was extremely communicative and shared constant updates and made we feel like Murphy was in great hands. Would definitely recommend!

Leah took care of our dogs every time me and the family would go out of town, she was our go to! She is a very kind person and amazing with dogs of all sizes, we have a German Shepherd mix and a Beagle. Leah was very professional, always was with the dogs and walking them when she stated she would be, loves long walks (the German Shepherd greatly appreciated those 😊) and playing fetch at the dog parks she would take them to on their walks. She is an amazing person and great with all dogs, we were sad to see her move from Hilton Head, it'll be hard to find another person outside the family that the dogs trust and adore as much as her.

Leah is absolutely wonderful. My dogs are so happy and healthy every time they're with Leah. She has a dog of her own who is always energetic and happy. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Medication schedules and food amounts are very important to know. I also like to know their typical walk time and if there are any nearby dogs that they do not get along with for their safety.
