Safety, trust & environment
I can do drop-in visits, walks/leash training throughout the day, or house-sit and stay overnight in your home. I can also assist with basic household tasks while I'm there.
Information Leah R. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. If you have any special requests or questions, feel free to reach out.
A typical day
I want to give your pets the amount of attention they are comfortable with. We can go for walks, work on training behaviors, and play inside or outside. I will accept all cuddles, but I will respect their space if they are not comfortable with me right away.

Pet care experience
Animals have always been an important part of my life, and caring for them is both my passion and my profession. I am certified in positive reinforcement dog training and am currently working toward additional education in animal behavior and training. Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule is highly flexible unless dates are already reserved on my calendar. If you have any special requests or unique care needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out so we can discuss how I can best support you and your pet. Whenever possible, I like to schedule a meet-and-greet in your home before services begin. This allows me to meet you and your pet, learn their routine, and discuss important details such as feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and favorite activities. I strive to maintain the routine your pet is familiar with to help them feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while you’re away.
Reviews
Leah house/pet sat for us a couple of times in 2025 and did a great job. Unfortunately, we had two serious issues this June however. When our exterior cameras caught her bringing an unknown man into our house, we messaged her to have him leave immediately. She messaged us back saying he was only using the bathroom but we noticed it took him an additional 20 minutes after that message to leave, meaning this stranger was in our house for a total of half an hour. She apologized and we naively bought her story, plus we were in a tight spot, so we decided to give her a second chance kept our reservation we had for two weeks later. That was a mistake. She showed up late to the booking and only stayed at the house for a few minutes before leaving our dog overnight, depsite us specifically booking her for overnights. She returned around 3am and is on our cameras attempting to sneak another guy in through the back (where she thought there weren't cameras). She also erased our dinner menu and left a passive aggressive note about our dietary preferences. Unfortunately Leah violated our trust, abandoned our dog, and insulted our family. We cannot recommend her services to anyone looking for someone who needs a dependable and trustworthy sitter.
We rebooked Leah for a second visit because she was so wonderful the first time! Leah really establishes a rapport with our cats and they remembered her from the first time - which makes them wayyy more comfortable with her (and us less stressed). We will definitely be rebooking in the future 🐈⬛🐈
Leah was great! I was a little worried about our male cat because he gets stressed out and has to be on special medications (and is a little feisty). Leah was so patient with him! And was able to administer his meds with no issues. It definitely gave me a peace of mind. Our other cat seemingly warmed right up to Leah and was a sweetheart. Leah was super reliable, responsive, and sent us cute photos of our cats to ease our mind while on vacation.
Thanks for the nice long walks with the pups!
