Pet care experience

Experienced Dog & Cat Sitter

Hello! My name is Leann. After caring for dogs my entire lifetime, I have a special passion for making all of the paw-friends. Having worked at a vet before as a Kennel Assistant, I have much experience in feeding, letting out, administering medications, giving baths, clipping nails, and general grooming of both cats and dogs. I have special experience in handling particularly anxious or aggressive puppies and happy to accommodate any situation. I have also volunteered with Purr Nation Cat Alliance fostering kittens for a while now, and have raised some great litters! I am the proud owner of a humane society rescue dog. Her name is Kinna and is an Aussie-Doberman-Pitt mix.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets the best way how - with love and kisses! I treat each new pup or cat with affection as I know they are missing you while you're gone. If this means extra treats, following their routine, or whatever the case may be - I can provide it! I also have special experience in handling anxious or aggressive dogs. This will allow me to accommodate your pet and help any anxiety they may experience while you’re gone. I provide multiple photo updates a day to give you peace of mind.

Leann was so lovely from start to finish! She took great care of Mochi while we were away and kept us posted with regular updates and photos. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter, and I hope to work with her again in the future!

Leann was wonderful with our nervous beagle who deals with separation anxiety and GI issues that can flare from stress! She was attentive, kept Ronnie calm, and gave his medications and food on time. We could tell instantly Ronnie would love spending time with her and we immediately trusted her!

Leann was fantastic! Took great care to understand the specific needs of our dogs and sent regular updates. She also left our home in perfect condition - can’t wait to have her take care of our pups again.

Schedule

I take out dogs according to the owners routine. My personal dog is let out three times a day and fed twice a day. In between I give plenty of snuggles!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Leann can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
I would like to know the feeding, letting out, and medication schedule of each pet. If your pet has any aggressive tendencies, I would like to know their triggers and how best to accommodate them to make sure they are comfortable and anxiety-free.
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.
