Work from home pet sitter

Pet care experience

Pet-friendly home with large secure fenced yard in East Austin 😊 I have extensive experience caring for animals spanning many different breeds, ages, sizes, and needs. I love to foster, sit for, and walk dogs when I can as an animal lover without a pet, and I am well-equipped to take fantastic care of any furry (or not) friend that comes my way. I have experience administrating medicine for the pets I’ve sat for, ranging from newborn puppies to very senior cats and dogs. I’ve also pet-sat for animals recovering from major surgeries. As a remote worker and new resident of Austin, I am excited to use my flexible work-life balance to help you in any way I can whether it is a last-minute walk, a drop-in to make sure your fur baby is happy and safe, or an overnight!

Leah was great! She is friendly and very kind. We were grateful that she was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. Teddy loved his stay with her. He felt right at home as soon as he got to her house. She took him on walks and kept us updated throughout the entire time. We will be booking with Leah again soon.

Leah was wonderful! She was so friendly, patient, and kind. Sammy, who rarely is away from me or my family, really bonded with her and enjoyed being with her!

Our family of doggos was a big fan of Leah - they always perked up when she came by to take them on their daily walk. Can’t thank her enough!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard in a quieter neighborhood to ensure your animal gets to explore and exercise while staying safe! As an ongoing foster I have all the equipment I could need to ensure your animal is well taken care of and comfortable in and outside of my home. It is a pet friendly home too, so I can happily provide them attention in any setting.

Information Leah W. would like to know about your pet

As a pet-sitter, it's crucial for me to be fully briefed on all the important details regarding your pet's needs, preferences, and any specific instructions you have. Understanding things like their feeding schedule, exercise requirements, medical conditions, and behavior quirks ensures that I can provide the best care and companionship while you're away!

A typical day

My typical day sitting for a pet involves providing care, companionship, and routine. This includes feeding at specific times, taking the pet for walks or potty breaks, engaging in playtime and training sessions (if needed), and ensuring the pet's comfort and well-being! The day revolves around meeting the pet's needs for exercise, mental stimulation, and affection, while also adhering to any specific instructions or schedules provided by the pet owner.
