Treat dogs right with a run
Pet care experience
Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile. My first job growing up was dog sitting my neighbors pets. I learned how to give shots to diabetic cats and provided a caring touch to elderly dogs. The idea that I could spend quality time with animals and be compensated for this enjoyment incentivized me to continue working with animals. I began fostering dogs and cats while in college and that passion in finding a furever home continues to this day. I enjoy volunteering my time with animal organizations like the Humane Society whenever I have the time. Animals are very important part of my identity and taking care of your furry friend is of the utmost importance. I want to understand the behavior of animals and communicate with them in a positive way. Therefore, I plan to further study animal behavior and gain more medical knowledge in the following years. I currently am a canine handler at a doggy daycare. My experience has taught me that providing boundaries and facilitating their energy with a proper walk, run, or bike ride allows for better communication to your pet. I am not only here to provide a service to you but also provide calming stability to them. I enjoy getting to know you and your pet. Cheers, Leah
Reviews
Our dogs and cats loved Leah. They all enjoyed her. She walked the dogs and our shy cat even spent time with her.
Leah always does a great job! Very attentive to our pets needs.
Leah did a GREAT job looking after our two boys. She's very active and gave our German Shepherd plenty of exercise and attention. I was impressed how she handled a not-so-great incident with our dog...he ate a sizeable chunk of cotton. Leah contacted our vet, got the best course of action, contacted me by phone and took care of our "hungry" boy before it escalated into a significant problem. I was very happy she took care of him so well. I highly recommend Leah!
Leah was great! On my first night working in Salida I just happen to run into Leah & my Penny and Penny was definitely annoyed by "mom" ruining her vibe. I know I have a puppy transitioning to teen/juvenile that I should consider their behavior, but I was most impressed that Penny would rather hang with Leah than me. Penny was happy, supersized and well-fed when we "rescued" aka took her away from her happy Leah place.

Information Leah S. would like to know about your pet
I appreciate open communication with dog owners. If your dog is uncomfortable and needs more time getting use to new people in their territory then possibly meeting in a neutral area will be recommended from me. I always like to meet you and your dog before the official dog sitting day. If that is not possible, I am very flexible but I do try to make it a point to meet up ahead of time.
A typical day
I love to adventure in the outdoors. Your dog will be showered with walks, dog park visits, and tlc. Also, photos during your leave will be enforced.
