Information Leah M. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful for me to know your pet’s usual routine, energy level, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. I also like knowing about feeding schedules, medications, any quirks or triggers, and how they do with new people, other dogs, or being outside.

A typical day

I like keeping pets active and comfortable while you’re away. We’ll go on walks, play outside, and of course lots of cuddles. I also like paying attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine so they feel relaxed and have a good time!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and love caring for them through every stage. I trained my family’s mini Aussiedoodles, Millie and Mabel, and cared for my childhood dog, Tucker, as he aged and passed. I’m currently in a gap year while applying to Physician Assistant school and would love to care for your pet like my own!

Leah is an absolutely amazing pet caretaker. I have watched her take wonderful care of her own pets back home, and take great care of mine as well. She’s very attentive to animals and loves them with her whole heart.

I can’t recommend Leah enough! She is incredibly responsible, caring, and truly loves animals. Any pet would be lucky to be in her care. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will treat your pets like their own, Leah is the perfect choice!
