Pet care experience

Veterinary Pro + Animal Lover

I’m happy to visit clients in their own homes. When caring for your pet, I prefer to keep them to their typical routine (as it allows) to keep them low stress and comfortable while their family is away. I would love a walkthrough of what that looks like for you. I’m comfortable and trained for special diets, injections, medications, and other needs. I’m also happy to work with exotics.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My goal is to always keep pets within their own routine, it keeps them the most content when their loved ones are away. If you have a specific schedule, I’m happy to follow that as best as possible to keep your pet happy.

Leah was WONDERFUL with my cat and dog. She sat them in my home, and my pets were instantly comfortable with her. Leah has great knowledge of animal behaviors and was able to handle my reactive pup and pill-needing cat with ease. Her communication was great, and she left my apartment in great shape. I will absolutely call her the next time I need pet care, and recommend her to anyone.

Leah is super responsive and easy to work with. She was great with our dog and even made recommendations due to the heat. We will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone in the Lincoln Park area.

Leah was great with our first babies! She took wonderful care of them and was very attentive to their needs. They got lots of love and activity and also communicated really well with us for updates!

Leah goes above and beyond for animals big and small. As someone who has seen her work with animals, especially dogs, I would recommend her to anyone who wants their pet cared for like it was their own. She’s especially knowledgeable about behavior in pets, so she’ll be a great stand-in pet parent for anyone who works with her. She could watch my dogs any day! (:

Behavioral information, any and all medical concerns, allergies, fears or potential triggers, fun quirks. I have worked in many animal care and veterinary settings, especially with rescue animals, so there’s probably nothing you can throw at me that I haven’t seen before, but the more information you give me, the happier and low-stress I can keep your furry friend while you’re away.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
