I WFH & pets are my fave coworkers!

Pet care experience

My 5 year old BullDog Lab Mix has epilepsy. I have experienced several seizures with him and as hard as it is to witness my best friend going through such a traumatic event, I have learned to remain calm and collected in order to rehabilitate his mind and body after they happen. I am honored to be his human because it means I know he is safe and taken care of and that everything is being done to make sure he lives a long and healthy life. Our other dog, who recently passed, had a few minor, but recurring problems with her "bits" as our toddler likes to say. She had this for as long as we could remember, but we alway took action to keep her happy and healthy and active. She was diagnosed with lymphoma and wore a diaper that we changed four times a day (sometimes I would do so on my own. I had to pick her up in my lap and shimmy it on because she wasoverly sensitive. And she wasnt light! haha) Everyone would always ask about our two 'puppies,' when they are very much so full grown. So that's a great feeling. Hehe. All that is to say that we treat out pets like family, because that’s what they are, and there’s nothing we wouldn’t do to keep them happy and comfortable.

Leah was amazing! She took great care of our puppy and I felt confident she was in good hands! She had to deal with a lot of puppy energy and we are incredibly grateful for her help

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large fenced yard and we live in South Lake Tahoe so everywhere is a great place to be with a dog! I also live with my partner, Jason, and our son, who are both great with animals and love them just as much as I do. We have two dogs who are as protective of their space as much as any other dog, but warm up to all living creatures very quickly.

Information Leah S. would like to know about your pet

Allergies, play time preferences, temperament, all the basics to keep us all happy and healthy. Emergency contact details. Veterinary details. All the safety goodies. And also just what they enjoy! I’m here to play!

A typical day

I love taking long walks in the mountains behind our home — even in the snow! and tossing around sticks and tennis balls and sometime even sledding on those snowy days! I also take my dog Gus for runs up Van Sickle.

I work from home so I am very open to last minute needs. It also helps to have something to get me out from behind my desk. :) And pets help keep me in a good mental space! So it’s a win win.
