Pet care experience
Welcome to my page! My name is Leah and I have been pet-sitting through Rover since 2018. I grew up with an assortment of labradors (Sigmund, Anna, Wilbur, and Watson) and an aching longing for a cat of my own (my father was allergic, allegedly). I have not yet had the opportunity to adopt a pet of my own, but having the chance to spend time with Rover animals certainly helps itch that scratch!
Reviews
Leah was absolutely amazing with our fur babies. I’ve never seen my dog and cat take to a sitter quite as much as they did to Leah. We were delayed in returning after a week and a half trip and Leah was a saint and handled it all for us so well. Really fantastic. Would HIGHLY recommend.
Leah completely put our mind at ease while we were away on vacation when it came to the care of our good boy. She was so kind and loving to our pooch, with thorough updates and the best pics daily. And, she’s a lovely person to boot—I can’t imagine better care for our dog. We are so grateful to her!
Leah was an amazing cat sitter! Our 2 very shy cats warmed up to her very quickly and she took great care of them and left the place clean. She was also very communicative and friendly and sent us tons of great pics of the cats. I would highly recommend Leah!
Leah is just amazing. She bonded with our pooch in minutes and is such a kind and warm presence. Could not recommend more highly.

I am happy to house-sit or drop in to care for your pets while you are away. I understand that your animals may prefer to stay in their own space, so I am excited to join them whererever they feel most comfortable.
Information Leah S. would like to know about your pet
All I need is the standard information that you would leave with any pet sitter! I have experience administering medication (pills, not shots) and also tending to the very-specific food preferences pets have (dry, wet, smushed down, chopped up, mixed with other things, the list goes on and on...). I trust that you know your pet best and will leave me with all the necessary information.
A typical day
Whatever your pet needs, I am happy to provide! I love cuddly pets, avoidant pets, and every pet in between. I can lay on the couch and give them lots of cuddly love, play with them to get their energy out, or simply sit in the same room as them as they do their own thing.

Availability
I am currently a law student at New York University, so I have to head into the city for a few hours at a time every day to attend my classes during the year. I prefer to spend time away from campus whenever possible, so I can be anywhere in the city on any given day. This summer, I will be interning full-time at a non-profit legal services organization, but will be working from home at least 3 days a week, so I would be happy to work from your home and spend time with your pets!
