Highlights
Pet care experience
Adventure buddy and trusted friend
As an animal lover and active pet sitter, I enjoy caretaking, hiking, walking, and entertaining the furry friends. I have 10+ years experience pet sitting. Playtime, walks, hikes, and overnights…I do it all! I have a dog of my own, Ghost, who is 13lbs of playful sweetness who gets along with all dogs and cats. He’s a great companion to come along for the caregiving or he can sit out based on your pets needs. I work remotely full time so my schedule is flexible. I am active and love the outdoors. Better shared with our pets! My best friend is a dog trainer, so I’ve picked up a few skills along the way. Your pets safety is the most important, and I adhere to directions for your pets well-being. I look forward to connecting with you and your pets!

Ratings and reviews
Leah has been great! Buddy is an anxious dog and she has been very understanding and respectful. Has accommodated for all of buddy’s needs and been very patient!
Leah S. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Leah and Ghost are the absolute best!! Cannot recommend them enough. Leah is super sweet and responsive and my fur baby was immediately comfortable with her. And Ghost is so awesome - friendly and playful and the perfect new best friend :) Great communication and a photo + video update too! My dog had an amazing time and came back so exhausted and happy. If you’re looking for someone in the valley it should 100% be Leah!!
Choosing a reliable and trustworthy cat sitter is crucial for any pet owner. When entrusting the care of our beloved feline companions to someone else, it is essential to find an individual who understands the responsibility and dedication required. Leah S. is that person, a competent and compassionate sitter that my cat, Chewie, always has a great experience with. Leah S. possesses an exceptional level of patience and understanding when it comes to interacting with Chewie as he can be quite shy and takes time to warm up to new and old friends. Being reliable and punctual are key attributes that Leah S. consistently displays. Each time Leah S. watches after Chewie, she always asks if anything has changed in his diet or behavior, and I always enjoy receiving a daily pic of she and Chewie's time together. A testament as well to her communication and updates! Chewie's disposition is always calm and welcoming upon my return that speaks to Leah S.'s experience and knowledge in caring for cats. Her commitment to fulfilling her responsibilities with the utmost care has instilled a strong sense of trust with me. Leah S. undoubtedly stands out as an exceptional cat sitter, one who Chewie looks forward to her visits. Her communication, reliability, trustworthiness, patience, and understanding comes from exceptional knowledge and experience that makes her an outstanding choice for anyone seeking a devoted individual to care for their beloved felines.
My dog jumps for joy when she sees Leah! I highly recommend. Leah will not only care for your dog, she entertains and exercises them. 🐕🦺❤️
Leah not only took care of our dog like she takes care of her own, she also sent us fun photos of the hike she took our sled dog on. We were mountain biking while Leah took our dog on her own adventure. I highly recommend Leah.

Schedule
I work remotely from home Monday-Friday. My schedule is flexible and I have my own transportation. I take my own dog out multiple times a day for walks, hikes, and games of fetch.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I respect all owners rules. My dog is great off leash, but I feel more comfortable leashing the pets under my care, unless discussed with the owner. I live in an apartment, but have access to great parks, walks, and dog parks. I have an annual Cherry Creek Dog Park pass, and if time allows, I live hiking with pets. I am very cognizant of animal’s behavior in different settings and make sure the animal is comfortable at all times.

A typical day
I love walking and hiking dogs. Playtime is the best, whether it's fetch, toy play, and stimulating activities like mild training skills or "find the treat. Ghost and I are outside multiple times a day visiting our park friends, cruising the neighborhood, or running errands.

- Knowing the feeding and relieving schedule is super helpful, especially for dogs. This can help me monitor the health and mindset of the pet. I also like to know the particularities of a pet, and the types of other animals/people they avoid or are weary of. What activities and toys do they love? Also, knowing their commands and previous training, including leash behavior is beneficial.
