Availability

I’m currently in school Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 9:00 AM to 1:30 PM, which still leaves me with plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings. I also work a part-time job on Tuesdays and some saturdays, with shifts ranging from 5–7 hours, and I play college volleyball, practicing every week day 330-6pm. Even with my schedule, I’m very organized and flexible, and I always make time for responsibilities that matter. I’m committed to working with pet owners to find a schedule that fits their needs, whether that’s regular visits, drop-ins, or adjusting my routine to make sure their pet is well cared for and not left alone too long.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in whatever environment they’re in. In a client’s home, I try to stick closely to their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions they provide. I make sure their space stays clean, especially when it comes to things like litter boxes or food areas, and I always keep a close eye on their behavior to make sure they’re doing well. I also give updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. In my own home, I create a calm and clean environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I make sure they have a safe space, plenty of attention, and regular care throughout the day. Since I care for my own cat, Sven, I’m very familiar with maintaining routines, cleanliness, and making sure pets are comfortable and well looked after. No matter the setting, I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get the attention and care they deserve.

Information Leah S. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, I’d love to know about their routine, personality, and any special needs. Things like feeding schedules, medications, favorite toys, exercise preferences, and any fears or triggers help me provide the best care possible. It’s also helpful to know how they interact with new people, other animals, and any commands or habits they’re used to. I also have a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone who will treat them like family. I know every pet has their own unique personality, and I’ll do everything I can to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I like to tailor activities to their personality and energy level! Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, tug-of-war, chasing toys, practicing simple tricks with treats, or just spending quality time giving belly rubs and cuddles, my goal is to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. For cats, I enjoy interactive play with toys, brushing (if they enjoy it), and giving them plenty of attention at their own pace. I’ll always make sure your pet gets the exercise, mental stimulation, and affection they need.

Pet care experience

I’m a college student and athlete who truly loves being around animals. I have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and my own cat, Sven, who I’ve raised since he was a kitten. I also grew up with my childhood dog for over 10 years, and after she passed away in August of last year, it made me appreciate even more how special the bond with pets really is. Because of that, I love meeting new animals and giving them the same care, attention, and love I gave my own. Being a volleyball player has taught me responsibility, consistency, and patience, qualities I bring into every pet I care for. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just companionship, I treat every pet like they’re family.
