Pet care experience
My name is Leah and I decided to join Rover after my experience with owning a dog. I know how stressful it can be to trust a stranger with your furbaby and I want to be the kind of person that I was looking for when I was searching for someone to watch my dog! - I have some experience with training as my dog required extensive training with a certified professional dog trainer. I can use some of my knowledge to help continue training with your pet if you are currently trying to train! I have experience with training not to jump, crate training, potty training, sit, come, stay, down, go to bed, loose leash walking, as well as behavioral adjustment training for fearful dogs. *Disclaimer - I am not a trainer, I just have SOME basic knowledge and can continue the training that you are currently doing with your pup if you are currently trying to train. I can offer tips/tricks but I always recommend hiring a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT) for your specific training needs as their knowledge and expertise is invaluable! - I have experience with administering medications in pill form as well as liquid CBD - I am a responsible and trustworthy individual and I take pride in these attributes. I understand that your furbabies are your world and I will treat them like they are my own! - I will adjust to fit your dog's needs. If your dog loves to fetch, we will fetch! If they prefer a quiet neighborhood walk, that's what we will do! If they just need some love and attention, I can do that too. - I have a dog who loves puppy play dates! If you need your puppy to be socialized, or if your dog loves playing with other dogs, I could bring them over to my place for a puppy play date inside a fenced-in backyard! :)

Leah is amazing!!! You won’t be disappointed using her to care for your fur baby!! I will definitely be using her again!! Give her a try!
Leah is one of the kindest, most loving people I have ever met. She will treat your pets with the same amount of compassion and patience in which she treats her own, which is A LOT! I would absolutely trust Leah with my dogs and my home. She really has a way of understanding and accommodating to the needs of all animals :)
Leah is an exceptional human being who will take amazing care of your pet! I never had to worry about how my pupper was doing because I knew she was in great hands. On top of it all, Leah is a great communicator! You will not be disappointed with the care your pet will receive.
If you are seeking a caregiver who will love and adore your furbaby like you would, Leah is hands-down the best. She has a true passion for man's best friend and I feel 100% less stressed knowing that in my absence, she is there for my babes.

Information Leah W. would like to know about your pet
If your dog is fearful or reactive, I'd like to know a little bit about what causes the fear and what their typical warning signs are so that I can best accommodate by keeping an eye on those cues. I'd like to know whether or not they should say hello to passing dogs or not. It's completely fine if not, I would just like to be prepared ahead of time so I can adjust to make your pup feel comfortable. :) If you have a large breed dog that pulls a lot during walks, I would prefer that your dog has a harness that has a clip on the front to attach the leash, OR a gentle leader.
A typical day
I love going on hikes and would gladly take your pup on a hike if they are into that! I love using positive reinforcement training and would love to help you continue your training while you are away! I will actively engage with your pup during our time together and give them all the affection if they like that sort of thing! :) I am also available to check on your home, bring the mail in, or water plants while you are away. I'm super flexible and do not mind doing those sorts of things!
