Your Dog's Other Best Friend!

Pet care experience

There really is nothing better than the love of a good dog, so it’s usually heart-shattering to lose one. I was the proud dog mom to a much beloved dog named Snoopy, but he was put to sleep after seven wonderful years due to a serious illness. I loved him as if he were a member of my immediate family and he came first, even before my own interests. It’s been difficult to get over my loss, but I’m slowly on the mend, and I think this is a great opportunity to open my heart again to our furry best friends. It’s going to take me a little longer to find another dog, but in the meantime, I’d love to care for your pup and be in the company of adorable dogs again. They truly bring so much unbridled joy and happy energy, I really miss having one around. While Snoopy was alive, I made sure he had everything he could possibly need, from regular veterinary visits to administering medications, to going on long, leisurely walks. It was only after I realized he was in terrible pain, I knew I had to let him go. To keep him would’ve been selfish. I live in a huge, dog-friendly apartment complex on the southside of Charlotte with plenty of open areas to run and play! I teach yoga for about four hours a day but I am free the rest of the day to spend time with your beloved pup! I love being in the outdoors, so we’ll go on many natural and urban adventures together. We’ll hit some dog-friendly cafes and dog parks––not only for your dog, but for me as well––I love being around as many dogs as possible and it’s a great way to connect with other dog lovers too. As a former pet owner I know how much your dog means to you as a member of your family. I love dogs, all animals as a matter of fact, and enjoy every pup I come in contact with. I’ve dog sat for friends and family for many years, and my current customers love how comfortable I am around their dogs and how quickly they take to me. I have a calm, patient demeanor. As a yoga instructor, I believe in balance and serenity, and I make sure to practice what I preach outside the yoga studio. Your pup will not only be safe and comfortable but adored and cherished.

Leah has kept my Sunny twice now and she is always available last minute and is so patient with him. he’s a bit older and requires extra attention and she still welcomes him back! I appreciate the love she gives when he’s with her!!

Leah watched my Sienna at nearly the last minute when I needed to go outta town for a few days, and she was great! Sienna seemed to take well to her and her home, and there didn't seem to be any issues. I was very happy and comfortable leaving Sienna with Leah and plan to again in the future. Highly recommended!

I wanted to send a quick S/O to let all dog owners know how pleased I was and have been with Leah. She really shows great concern and care for my spoiled Shi Tzu and was very descriptive in her messages to me while I was away on holiday(she also sends pics!!). By far, she has been the best pet sitter I’ve had. I would really like to keep using her from here on out as the pet sitter for my fur baby. My fur baby really likes her and she just took such good care of him. Please, if it’s possible I really want to keep Leah as my pet sitter from here on out. It was a great experience and I knew from the “get go” upon meeting her, my fur baby were in excellent hands with her. I am truly a satisfied and a happy client!

I highly recommend Leah’s Dog sitting services. She comes by my house once a week to see my Rottweiler Jaida. Leah has known Jaida since she was a puppy. Jaida is always excited to see Leah when she comes through the door. In Leah’s care Jaida, enjoys several walks, she’s properly fed when she needs to be and she gets plenty of play time. Throughout the day Leah will send pics/videos of my happy puppy! If you want someone that would love your dog as you do, please choose her for your next pet sitting needs!

Information Leah M. would like to know about your pet

I want you to be comfortable with me just as much as I want to be with you and your beloved dog. Meet and greets are a wonderful way to read each other’s energy and get important information about your dog’s needs. I take pride in caring for dogs, so I want to do my best to honor your pup’s routine. I’ll want to get the full lowdown about your dog’s diet, illnesses and/or medications, exercise and walking preferences, likes and dislikes, triggers like young children, other dogs, or loud noises, and any behavioral issues. I am comfortable with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. I also love taking pictures of dogs, so I’ll send regular updates via text with photos and videos. I’m all about transparency and open communication, so feel free to contact me anytime with questions or concerns. I’m happy to help.

A typical day

I really miss doing all the great things you get to do with a dog, so while your pup is in my care, I’ll get to live vicariously! We’ll go on long, meandering walks, go to dog parks and play with other dogs, go on hikes or a mellow jog. Then we’ll come home and cuddle while we watch TV. I’ll be ready again for my own pup, but until then, I can’t wait to spend quality time with yours!
