13 Years Professional Experience
Pet care experience
I have experience with all breeds, sizes and ages of dogs with varying health statuses from perfectly healthy to grand mal seizures. Medication administration is not a problem to me be it injections, ear medicine, oral medication, eye drops or baths (Though I do prefer a non-aggressive dog/cat) I have a neutral, yet calming personality and it seeps over to a dog and helps them. I'm patient and understanding with all pets and if I have to sit and wait for a dog to get comfortable with me, I have no issue doing so. I can provide many references from 13 years of owning my own business. I am a certified canine and training behavior specialist and a certified groomer who knows how to handle dogs properly. I really enjoy getting to meet all different dogs and other pets and just getting to know each and every individual's personality. It's a fun challenge and it allows me to continue to provide love and care for a living creature.
Reviews
Our dogs were well cared for by Leah and we recommend her to take care of your pets.
Leah has been in my dog, Daisy,s life for the past 4 years. We were lucky to win a silent auction for Leah's services. She has taught Daisy to swim ( kids were mean to her as a pup and she was afraid of water). Now Daisy loves to go for a swim in our pool when she gets hot. Leah helped me train this unruly girl. Daisy now follows commands ( up to a point?) and is a great companion. I exclusively use Leah to dog sit. Before I met her I brought Daisy to boarding pet centers and was not satisfied. With Leah she takes Daisy for long walks and does some training with her. You really are putting your pet in responsible, caring professional pet trainer/ lover when you hire Leah.
I have used Leah as my personal pet sitter for over the last five years. She has taken care of dogs, birds, chickens, ducks, and done so like they were her own pets. She brings them goodies at Christmas and is simply wonderful with them. She is a very trustworthy individual and a professional when it comes to the pets. I wouldn't trust my guys to anyone else!
I highly recommend Leah as an animal caregiver. I have known her for years, she is the first one I recommend for in home pet sitting. Her knowledge and skill in handling and caring for animals is outstanding. She helped me with my Belgium Malinois. She has the ability to read the animals behavior and know the best way to achieve the wanted results. She's very positive and compassionate. She helps promote the homeless animals in our community.

I treat every pet as though they were my own. Lots of love and affection, topped with patience and understanding that their owners are gone and the pet will be missing them.
Information Leah S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to be aware of any health concerns or behavior concerns so that I can adapt and be able to properly care of the dog or cat.
A typical day
We can go around the neighborhood, apartment complex. I believe in interactive toys and teaching new games to all dogs. I also don’t mind just snuggling up on the couch and giving pets.
