Loving and responsible sitter!

Pet care experience

I've been around dogs most of my life and love making new furry best friends! In my care, your dog will be well cared for and loved. I enjoy hiking after work and on the weekends, as will your pup! I have cared for high energy dogs, working dogs, and senior dogs. Our home has a 3 year old English Shepherd that can play endless fetch and a 7 month old lab mutt that is always looking to make a new best friend! While you are away, I'll provide daily (sometimes hourly!) photos of your doggy having the time of their life. I can always give you an update via text or phone call during the stay as well. I do not work at home, but have flexible hours and can be available for mid-day check-ins and walks. I'm home in the evenings as well. Long story long, I've been watching friends' and family dogs for many years, and can't wait to watch yours!

Leah treated my dog Boo like a king. I couldn't have been happier about his stay with her, and neither could Boo. Leah's a great communicator-I received daily feedback of what they were doing, where they went, and reports on his behavior, how he got along with her dogs, and pictures(!). She has 2 dogs that were super playful and sweet with Boo. Leah was very careful to introduce our dogs first, which clued me in to how responsible and caring she is. While Boo was there, not only did he get to play in her yard and cuddle on the couch with her (um, he's 65 lbs and growing), she also took him on outings-including the dog island! I would definitely use Leah again and felt super comfortable about her taking care of my buddy. Highly recommended. Thank you Leah-from both of us! You're awesome!

Leah has house sat for my pup Pete several times. She’s great with Pete, incredibly responsible and considerate of my house, and so wonderful to work with! I was coming in late in the evening this trip, and leah washed the sheets and made up my bed. It was such a nice surprise to come home to after a long day of travel.

Leah is an excellent dog sitter! This is the second time she’s taken care of Pete. She sends daily pics (and sometimes more!), hikes with Pete, and takes great care of the house.

Leah took Pete on several hikes, took him to work with her, and sent many pictures! This was my first dog/home sitting experience and I will absolutely work with Leah in the future. She was also very considerate while staying in my home - she washed the sheets and towels that she used - which i so so appreciate. Thank you!

Information Leah Z. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what restrictions there are for your dog, what triggers might exist, and any other relevant information about their behavior. For example, are they a flight risk? I'd also like to know their normal routine so I can mimic it as much as possible!

A typical day

Walks, hikes, runs, endless games of fetch and tug, and lots of cuddles! We live in central Missoula close to many parks and bike paths and are always looking to get out into the local hiking trails.
